Product Description

Peter Lynch, one of the most successful investors of all time, shows you how to use what you already know to make money in the market. You'll discover why smart money is not so smart - and why you may be a better stock picker than the pros, how to follow your hunches and back them up with facts, how to disregard reports on the economy and pick your own time to buy and sell, and how to determine which types of stocks are right for you. Lynch is the former manager of the $9 billion Fidelity Magellan Fund, where he earned investors a $190,000 return on a $10,000 investment.

This is by far the best of the fabled mutual fund manager, Peter Lynch, books. This book is the best of the lot, and well worth the price of admission.

Mr. Lynch managed the largest mutual fund in the WORLD for a number of years (Fidelity Magellan: 1977-1990), and brings his experience and suggestions home in a common-sense sort of way. Not filled with numbers, but provides the investor with the basics of where to look around for good companies, and some hallmarks of them.

I suggest that this book belongs on the shelf of any beginning investor (or broker or CFA for that matter), together with Buffettology. The only weak part of this book is the valuation portion: that is, to know how you are buying $1 worth of stock for $1 or less (here Buffettology would help).

Overall, I highly recommend this book, and believe both novice and experienced investors will profit alike.

These days we all see Peter Lynch's investment commercials. They carry a light message with a bit of humor. This book, although witty, carries a serious message. If you keep you eyes open and watch the trends around you, you will be able to identify the companies that will do better. He uses education and common sense to identify the companies that will do better. He uses education and common sense to address The Disbelief Stall described in THE 2,000 PERCENT SOLUTION by Donald Mitchell, Carol Coles and Robert Metz. This new book describes many stalls that make it hard to make decisions and forge ahead. What disbeliefs were common? People believed that the telephone would never take off because you could just walk across the back yard to talk with you neighbor. Could you imagine today without a phone? And, Thomas Watson thought that there would only be a market for five giant computers? In investing, people believe that professionals will do better than individuals because professionals know more and have more skills. Yet, buying a good stock, relative to where it will be in the long term, and being patient is always a win-win. Get rid of your stalls and follow your instincts. You'll be glad you did.
