The Intelligent Investor,
by Benjamin Graham. According to Warren Buffett, this is
the best book on investing ever written. That’s pretty high praise,
coming from perhaps the most successful investor of the last half of the
twentieth century. First written in 1950, last updated in 1973, and
still in print, this timeless book was intended by Graham to serve as
the intelligent layman’s guide to investing—in lieu of the prodigious Security Analysis, primarily intended
for securities professionals (and reviewed below). Graham provides
advice both for those he refers to as “defensive” investors (most
people) and for the rare “enterprising” investor willing to do a lot of
homework. Clear writing starts with clear thinking, and in this classic
book Benjamin Graham, the acknowledged father of modern investment
analysis, is at his clearest. |
