Reviews for You Can Be a Stock Market Genius

[Preetam Anbukarasu · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

An excellent primer for investors learning the ropes. Simple and actionable insights.

[George · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

This book educated me that "I know one thing, I don't know anything". As I was hearing it, understanding only a few words, it intrigued me. It's a nice guide for "special situations " in the stock market. You can invest in assets you weren't aware of; will return to it in the future.

[Omar Z. Alshehri · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Very different investment strategies from what I've been doing and I'm sure this is critically important
