Books about fundamental analysis

theres a paid site out there that used to let you test fundamentals via a price screen - portfolio123.com I havent been there in about 2 years, but it was good to test ideas and backtest fundamentals.

Forget fundies... become a disciplined chart trader.

Fundamentals and technicals are OFTEN in conflict. Don't bother trying to render their differences to come to the "right conclusion"... can't be done with consistency.

No man/trader can serve two masters... you must choose one and be faithful to it...

I have to strongly disagree with that advice. Fundamentals and technicals are often in conflict depending upon what you are looking at. I think you'll find that if you have a knack for picking out the right information, having a confluence of both only increases the probability of traders.
 
Any of the Peter Lynch books give a good idea of how a portfolio manager thinks, how to read a balance sheet and cash flow statement, how to think about the economic cycle, etc.

I think it's a lot more fun to learn how to read "off balance sheet" transactions.
 
Yes,fundamentals and technicals are often in conflict,which implies that there are times when the fundamentals and technicals are pointing in the same direction..
