Tim Melvin
Value Investing Expert
As a 27-year veteran of the financial services and investment industry I’ve served as a broker, advisor, and portfolio manager. I’ve combined this nearly three decades of experience with my love of value investing in order to help investors worldwide to multiply profits and build their nest eggs.
As an avid value investor, I’m a strict practitioner of “asset based value investing” in the tradition of Graham, Schloss, and Whitman. Never having attended B-School, except as a lecturer—I take pride in the fact that I’ve not been corrupted by EMH, CAPM, or other silly theories that harm long-term investors.
I’ve written and lectured extensively on the markets, with work appearing on RealMoney.com, DailySpeculation.com, as well as numerous articles posted in Active Trader and the Wall Street Digest. I’ve published several investment guides in Wiley’s “Little Book of” Investment Series.
I’m also the author of the Junior Chamber Course on Value Investing— an education program geared towards young adults that teaches the principles and techniques of basic value investing, conveying Graham’s principles to a new generation of investors.
In my personal life I’m married with three children, recently abandoning the brutal cold of the Northeast for the warmth and distraction that a life in Windermere, Florida, provides. I’m an ardent fan of baseball, books, and burgundy as well as palm trees, pelicans, and alligators.
