In most fields, studying the patterns of success is a standard way to learn. So when people come to financial markets they try the same approach. All new investors get busy investigating how the wealthy investors made their money in the stock market. They want to know the secret behind the winning strategies.

This is the second part of our “Philip Fisher’s Four Dimensions of Investing” series. I strongly recommend that you read the first part before reading this. If you have already read the first part, it would still help a lot if you could refresh it before moving further with this post.

Fisher is best known as the author of Common Stocks and Uncommon Profits, that has remained in print ever since it was first published in 1958. That’s a proof of timelessness of the book and the lessons it contains.
