Excellent Investing Book
11. Oktober 2005
Von T. Stone
- Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
The author takes complex topics and makes them easy to understand ... with an intent of saving others from the mistakes he had made as an active investor -- trading stocks, investing in a variety of mutual funds, etc. Instead the book lays out the many benefits of index investing and provides a framework for someone to begin doing so through the highly regarded passive/index investment firm Dimensional Fund. This is the only investing book I've ever been able to read and enjoy every page of.

An Investment Book I Couldn't Put Down!
21. Januar 2006
Von D. Rankin
- Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
I spent a weekend reading this book cover to cover and I couldn't be more pleased. This book eloquently summarized my four years of Masters coursework, not to mention decades of academic research, in a style that is compelling and easy to grasp.
Reading this book will help you understand why a globally-diversified, risk-capacity-matched, small-value-tilted, low-cost, tax-efficient index portfolio is the only smart way to invest. You will understand exactly why stock pickers, mutual fund managers, and market timers mathematically cannot beat the market over 10 or 20 year periods... while the very few that do are the result of chance, despite their claims to the contrary.
You may also want to watch the Nova special, "The Trillion Dollar Bet".

Costly Lesson
11. November 2005
Von S. Wolgemuth
- Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
If you are like me, you have spent far too much time and money learning the ugly truth about investing. Nobody can consistently over time beat the market. Nobody. This book is about a revolutionary idea and an obvious one: Invest with the market and win with the market.
This does not mean that "one size fits all," that there is just one strategy everyone should use. In fact, the author puts forward 20 separate portfolio strategies, each with a "play with the market" approach. Each with its own risk/return specifics. Each one a winner over the past 35 years.
This attractive book is literally worth it's weight in gold. Actually, it's worth well more than that.
