Description of A Random Walk Down Wall Street Rev

The million-copy bestseller, now fully up-to-date and ready for post-dot-com investors.

Using the dot-com crash as an object lesson in how not to manage your portfolio, here is the best-selling, gimmick-free, irreverent, vastly informative guide to navigating the turbulence of the market and managing investments with confidence.

A Random Walk Down Wall Street is well established as a staple of the business shelf, the first book any investor should read before taking the plunge and starting a portfolio. With its life-cycle guide to investing, it matches the needs of investors at any age bracket. Burton G. Malkiel shows how to analyse the potential returns, not only for stocks and bonds but also for the full range of investment opportunities, from money market accounts and real estate investment trusts to insurance, home ownership, and tangible assets like gold and collectibles.

Whether you want to verse yourself in the ways of the market before talking to a broker or follow Malkiel's easy steps to managing your own portfolio, this book remains the best investing guide money can buy.

Financial Guru Reviews

Malkiel says professionals are no better at selecting shares than blindfolded monkeys. If, like me, you reckon private investors can beat simian stockpickers you should have answers to the many awkward questions he poses. You also get an exposition of conventional investment analysis and financially planning that is simply the best there is, for the intelligent layman. Malkiel does not explain why the monkeys need to be blindfolded though, or whether sighted ones would beat the pros.
