Mehr zum Buch

The Great Investors narrates the journeys of remarkable figures in finance: John Templeton, George Soros, Warren Buffett, Benjamin Graham, Philip Fisher, Peter Lynch, Anthony Bolton, and John Neff. This insightful exploration is beneficial for everyone, from novice investors to seasoned professionals. Readers will discover effective trading philosophies and strategies, including the importance of being a business analyst rather than merely a security analyst, conducting thorough research, and maintaining a broad awareness of social, economic, and political contexts. The book emphasizes the need to control emotions to avoid market-induced decisions and to remain consistent in one’s investment approach, even during challenging years. It encourages simplicity in portfolio management, learning from past investments, and cultivating self-reliance by trusting one’s own judgment rather than following the crowd. Additionally, it highlights the significance of taking reasonable risks. Glen Arnold, a businessman, investor, and finance professor at Salford University, aims to delve into the traits and skills that enable these investment masters to accumulate wealth through experience and rational decision-making.
