Some information cannot be contained in ink and blips and must always remain physical. This has been found in science, but also applies to investing, where it provides big advantage to investors who investigate companies physically (“sleuthing.”)
In this book (a follow up on his first), seasoned investing expert Avner Mandelman, relying on recent findings in AI and the latest Nobel Prize winning research, presents case-studies and sleuthing techniques to help the reader take the money of those who haven’t read the book.

Avner Mandelman was born in Israel and served in the Israeli Air Force during the Six-Day War. His story collection Talking to the Enemy was chosen by Kirkus as one of the twenty-five best books of 2005, and by the ALA as the first recipient of the Sophie Brody Medal for outstanding achievement in Jewish literature.
Several of Avner's stories were anthologized, including the Pushcart Prize, the Best American Short Stories, and the Journey prize.
Avner's literary thriller The Debba, the first in the Undertaker trilogy, won the Arthur Ellis Award for best mystery novel, and was listed for the Scotia Giller prize.
His latest book, The Undertaker's Daughter, is second in the Trilogy, and a third book is planned.
Avner also writes investment books, based on his original approach to sleuthing for physical information-- an approach that also serves him well in writing vivid & emotionally gripping fiction.
Avner has a B.Sc. from the Israeli Technion, an MBA from Stanford Graduate School of Business, and an MA in English / Creative Writing from San Francisco State University. He lives in Toronto, Canada.
