20 All-Time Favorite Investing Books – Part 2
- 6 Comment
 |
A few weeks ago I presented Part 1 of my favorite investing books. This is part 2 of that series and presents another 10 investment books that I have found great value from. There is a wide selection of investing books here – some are focused on dividend investing, some are more personal financed focused, and others are just plain ol’ investing books. The point is that as individual investors, the only thing that will make us successful is education on our topic and it is important to read the right books. These are my choice for “the right books”.[ad#tdg-embedded]

There is just so much to learn in this collection of annual reports from Warren Buffet that I wouldn’t know where to begin. |
 |
Individual stock pickers will not like this one, however it makes a very convincing case that the markets are efficient and selecting individual stocks is a game people should not play. |
 |
An awesome insiders view of how Wall Street really works. It was this book that first created my true distrust of Wall Street and using mutual funds as an investing tool. |
 |
Like Bogleheads in Part 1, this book brings investing down to its very simple components. The focus on index funds to build a strong portfolio is the emphasis in this one. |
 |
This book can be pretty heavy at times, but it is the most comprehensive book I have read about how your brain impacts your money decisions. Want to learn how emotions limit your ability to make money then this book is crucial. |
 |
A great book to really understand the impacts of certain metrics on the value of a stock and how to use that to help screen out companies in your own research. Price-to-Book, Dividend Yield – they are all analyzed and discussed. |
 |
Although the book covers investing a little bit, it is more about living frugally – something I have yet to master. However, always having the understanding that I will limit my ability to get rich by overspending helps with my day-to-day decisions. |
 |
Ok- OK, so this is a book about trading. However, I really do believe it has a number of good lessons about the investing process and how to identify good stocks. There are a number of rules that can help a long-term investor in this book. |
 |
A really in-depth description of conducting fundamental analysis on stocks. Full of a tonne of information and processes for really uncovering how good (or bad) a stock is. |
 |
To finish the list off I thought I would list a book that was just fun to read. As someone who enjoys travel, I enjoyed Jim’s vivid descriptions of the places he visited (and sometimes invested in) and the experiences he had. A great book to read on a vacation lying around the beach in Gran Canaria. |
