The book also explains in concrete terms how to identify true growth companies, rather than mere trends, from next-generation themes such as AI, new energy, and space, and when investors should buy them. These are asset-management principles reached by an analyst who conducts in-depth interviews with nearly 100 companies a year and covers all 33 industries on the Tokyo Stock Exchange. 【Table of Contents】 Introduction: Japanese Stocks That Win in Inflation: The Professional Eye That Moved Over 200 Billion Yen Chapter 1: Five Common Patterns Among People Who Keep Losing in Stock Investing Chapter 2: What Is Truly Necessary to Succeed in Stock Investing Chapter 3: For Big Gains, Target “High-Growth Stocks” or “Deeply Undervalued Stocks” Chapter 4: “Beautiful Growth Stocks” That Lift Share Prices During High-Growth Periods Chapter 5: “Plain Growth Stocks” That Can Earn Steadily Chapter 6: Four Growth Themes to Watch Going Forward Chapter 7: How Far AI Will Change the World Chapter 8: The Energy Revolution in the Decarbonization Era Chapter 9: Can Biopharmaceuticals Become Silver Bullets for Disease?
