The Classic Text Annotated to Update Graham's Timeless Wisdom for Today's Market Conditions



The greatest investment advisor of the twentieth century, Benjamin Graham taught and inspired people worldwide. Graham's philosophy of "value investing" -- which shields investors from substantial error and teaches them to develop long-term strategies -- has made The Intelligent Investor the stock market bible ever since its original publication in 1949.



Over the years, market developments have proven the wisdom of Graham's strategies. While preserving the integrity of Graham's original text, this revised edition includes updated commentary by noted financial journalist Jason Zweig, whose perspective incorporates the realities of today's market, draws parallels between Graham's examples and today's financial headlines, and gives readers a more thorough understanding of how to apply Graham's principles.



Vital and indispensable, this HarperBusiness Essentials edition of The Intelligent Investor is the most important book you will ever read on how to reach your financial goals.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The character of sweatless fortune ......
If you understand Benjamin graham in "The intelligent investor" you would only think that he sold a million dollar idea for $20 .This wouldn't just make you rich but will give you a robust character . My title says Sweatless fortune , you got to understand graham to believe that .


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - On the shoulders of giants!
Typically, when Nobel laureates and/or Pulitzer Prize winners are asked how they came to such remarkable achievements in the understanding of their chosen fields, their response is, "because I stood on the shoulders of giants."

For instance, for a better ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - great book for a beginner
This is a great book for a beginner. covers a lot of the basics, some of the stuff may be outdated but the fundamentals do not seem to have changed.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A classic -- still worth reading after 60 years
Since reading Graham, I keep running into his name everywhere -- and for good reason. Graham (and his disciple Warren Buffet) does not talk about -- or believe in -- get-rich-quick schemes (those are speculation), but in sound principles of looking for solid, well-run companies, and buying their stock when the price dips. (The market gets hysterical and goes up or down in ways that have nothing to do with the intrinsic value of the company.) If other people are foolish enough to sell off a good company ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A must for any investment collection.
This book is hailed, and with strong reason, as one of the cornerstone pieces of investment literature. The ideas surrounding valuation and the like are as valid now as they were when the pen first touched this masterpiece.

It is not one of those over-hyped, over-produced get rich quick in the stock market type pieces, but rather a solidified educational fundamental foundation to theory of value investing.

A warning to the novice: This book is written in a very technical language ... Read More
