The Intelligent Investor: The Classic Text on Value Investing

Review The Intelligent Investor: The Classic Text on Value Investing

by BENJAMIN GRAHAM

About the book

As one of the early classics of finance and investing books, Benjamin Graham shares his philosophy on “value investing” and how to make it successful. In his philosophy, he teaches investors how to develop long-term strategies and to avoid a substantial error. In this new edition, Graham’s original content is followed by a commentary by Jason Zweig with an incorporation of the ideas into the modern investing industry. This book has established Graham as one of the most important investing teachers of all time.

It can be easily determined that Graham was one of the investing pioneers of his time, with his innovative approach to investing. This has established him as the father of value investing. The content of the book was specifically centered on the face of the industry in Graham’s time, which was far from how investing and the stock market works now. Following that, the book seems to be outdated when applied to the modern market. Zweig’s commentary did little to incorporate Graham’s ideas into the modern investing industry, as firstly, the original content relied on the industry of Graham’s time.

It still remains as one of the most important investment books of all time, as it was the pioneer of many investing books that followed. Overall, the reader can still get insight from Graham’s philosophy on value investing and apply it to his or her take on investing.
