About this listen

The best investment guide money can buy, with more than 1.5 million copies sold, now fully revised and updated.

Today's stock market is not for the faint of heart. At a time of frightening volatility, what is the average investor to do? The answer: Turn to Burton G. Malkiel's advice in his reassuring, authoritative, gimmick-free, and perennially best-selling guide to investing. Long established as the first book to purchase before starting a portfolio or 401(k), A Random Walk Down Wall Street now features new material on "tax-loss harvesting", the crown jewel of tax management; the current bitcoin bubble; and automated investment advisers; as well as a brand-new chapter on factor investing and risk parity.

And as always, Malkiel's core insights - on stocks and bonds, as well as real estate investment trusts, home ownership, and tangible assets like gold and collectibles - along with the book's classic life-cycle guide to investing, will help restore confidence and composure to anyone seeking a calm route through today's financial markets.

Good all round book

History of stock mkt, references to bubbles around the world and across the length of time. Describes very well the manic depressive nature of stock mkts. But doesn't encourage to invest directly in stocks. In the end it preaches more of an index ETF investment philosophy. So unless you're looking for a secret sauce to invest directly in stocks go for it!

An Amazing journey down Investing

Burton G Malkiel starts from history of investing to investment strategies. This book should be considered as a Bible for investors. I really likes one pharse in the book " Investing is like love making, Ultimately it is an art requiring some talent and the presense of a serious force called LUCK". Thank you for this wonderful book.

one of the best personal finance books

one of the best personal finance books. The book reduces the urge to find extra ordinary returns and focus on things we can control, which can make a considerable difference in the long run.
