Any book recommendations?

Harvey's_Dad

I've recently read a couple of books on investment that I thought were good:
- A Random Walk Down Wall Street by Burton Malkiel
- Reminiscences of a Stock Operator by Edwin Lefèvre

Has anyone got any recommendations for what I should read next?

Many thanks. A lot to read there :eek:

Have you got any particular favourites from the above list of books? Perhaps I could start with them first!

Where Are the Customers' Yachts, Liar's Poker and Hedge Hogging were all very entertaining & give an insight into how the financial industry works; any one of them would be a good read but I think to get the most out of the last two you need some knowledge of investing so WACY is probably my first choice ( assuming that you are new to investing ). It is also a classic, along with One up on Wall Street, which is more of a how-to book, & also one of my favourites. The Intelligent Investor is another classic, well worth the read and still relevant today ( written in 1949 ). It is a treatise on value investing and on broader themes of the stockmarket. I really like the edition with commentary by Jason Zweig, as he explains the historic context very well.

That should keep you reading for a while

Many thanks for the recommendation.

The reviews in Amazon for this book seem a bit polarised. The latest review has the tag line of "Yet another pyschobabble book posing as science", though to be fair, most of the other reviewers give it 5 stars.

I like selecting shares that perform by Richard Koch.

Any good books on investing free to download? (legitimately of course )

Not specifically on saving/investing but a cracking economics book for newbies that debunks common fallacies:
Economics in One Lesson by Henry Hazlitt HTML or PDF
