FYI: There are only three or four things you need to know about a company,” Jerome Dodson tells a dozen students on a crisp September evening, “but, unfortunately, you have to do a lot of looking through the weeds before you find out what those things are.”
A talent for finding gold amid the weeds has helped make Dodson, 75, one of the top investors of his generation. And that has made the class he teaches at New York University a magnet for ambitious M.B.A. candidates eager to emulate his success—plus one Barron’s reporter. But as his students listen to the founder of Parnassus Investments, it becomes evident that Dodson takes far more than three or four things into consideration when deciding whether to buy a stock.
