Recommendation

This remarkable, dense book about water covers its uses, chemistry, issues, supply and technology, as well as the modern global water business. Steven J. Hoffmann, a water investment expert, explores the connections among water ecology, regulation and economics while identifying specific investment targets. This volume is for disciplined investors looking to exploit Hoffman’s information to further their own research. While finding the text somewhat long-winded and dry, getAbstract recommends it to technically oriented, serious investors seeking immersion in the water industry.

Take-Aways

  • The water business is the world’s “third-largest industry, behind oil and gas production and electricity generation.” The value of water is only going to increase.
  • Structural shifts in water management and regulation present great investment opportunities.
  • Water is subject to the same value fluctuations as any other commodity.
