Hi friends,

recently I came across a new way of investing/trading, called as the contrarian way of investing.
one of the proponents of such a theory is David Dreman, who has written a book , titile " The New Contrarian investment strategies" . its a nice read.

it makes use fundamental analysis to pick stocks with low PE, P/B, P/CF and high dividend yield.

Wanted to know if any of you have already tried such an approach.

please share your views/experiences on this strategy for investment/trade.
