Book Reviews of A Random Walk Down Wall Street: The Time-Tested Strategy for Successful Investing (Revised and Updated)
Book Review: An Investment Primer!
Summary: 4 Stars
This book is an extensive and complete review of the investing sector, with a particular focus on equities. If you are trying to read one book only on this subject, this is probably the book that I would recommend. If you are quite familiar with this subject, you may not find as much depth as you hope but this book would serve as a historical reference. I particularly recommend reading the sections relating to the formation of bubbles and the subsequent collapses throughout the decade. The author clearly demonstrates how this is an inherent phenomena in the investing world, as we have recently experienced, and shows us ways to better understand and deal with these situations. I also liked the discussion about technical vs fundamental analysis of equities, when each should be used and how to harness the power of each. Finally, although the author does take a side on some of the topics he discusses, he does a great job of objectively presenting the different view points which is key for any reference material. A recommended primer!
