Genre: Investment, Finance, Classic Economics

Description:
The Intelligent Investor by Benjamin Graham is widely considered the definitive guide to value investing. First published in 1949, this timeless classic has influenced generations of investors, including Warren Buffett, who calls it “by far the best book on investing ever written.” Graham’s core philosophy is rooted in the concept of “margin of safety” investing in undervalued companies to minimize risk and maximize returns. He distinguishes between the “defensive” investor, who seeks steady, low-risk investments, and the “enterprising” investor, willing to take calculated risks. The book delves into fundamental analysis, market behavior, and long-term strategy while warning against speculation and emotional decision-making. Updated with commentary by financial journalist Jason Zweig, the modern edition connects Graham’s principles to today’s market conditions. The Intelligent Investor teaches readers not just how to make smart investments, but how to think like an investor with discipline, patience, and rationality. It remains essential reading for anyone serious about growing wealth through thoughtful, strategic investing.
