A Chat with a Value Investing Legend: Professor Bruce Greenwald

The Columbia Business School was where value investing started – Benjamin Graham, the intellectual father of the discipline, first lectured on the topic there in the late 1920s. Warren Buffett is perhaps the most famous student from Graham’s lectures.

Today, the Columbia Business School is still very much in the thick of value investing, with its involvement being led by Professor Bruce Greenwald. A well-known authority on value investing, Greenwald is hailed by The New York Times as a “guru to Wall Street’s gurus.” He is also the author of multiple books, including Value Investing: From Graham to Buffett and Beyond.
