I think this article needs serious expansion. The original article, while clearly NPOV, included correct factual information. It is not fair to trivialize the influence of Ben Graham's _Security Analysis_ and _Intelligent Investor_ on Warren Buffet, or to denigrade Graham; however, it is undeniable that Buffet was influenced and changed by Fisher. Buffet's current investment strategy is correctly characterized as a blend of Ben Graham, Philip Fisher, and John Williams Burr (who also is deserving of a Wikipedia article, writing the definitive treatise _Theory of Investment Value_, which is still relevant today and forms the basis of modern finance theory). Along with the aforementioned books, Fisher's _Common Stocks and Uncommon Profits_ is among the most important books on investing ever written.
Irving Fisher called to 1929 crash wrong, and Phil Fisher was considered a great investor. Are they related?
