Carnival of Value Investing #11 ? The Finality ? Value Stock Guide

Welcome to the August 27, 2011 edition of Carnival of Value Investing.

I say finality because I have decided that this will be the last edition of this Carnival. While the carnival continues to attract submissions, it seems to me that value investing is a topic that is not very popular among the finance/investing bloggers. Which is just as well. If every one got interested in value investing, there will be a paucity of undervalued stocks in the market

The market volatility has inspired many bloggers to write about the best ways to react. There is definitely a theme of contrarianism running through these posts. When emotions take over, it is the worst time to make major investment changes. Most investors are better off to sit tight and ride the volatility off.
