    About this ebook

    Get the Summary of Benjamin Graham's The Intelligent Investor in the Room in 20 minutes. Please note: This is a summary & not the original book. Original book introduction: The greatest investment advisor of the twentieth century, Benjamin Graham, taught and inspired people worldwide. Graham's philosophy of "value investing" -- which shields investors from substantial error and teaches them to develop long-term strategies -- has made The Intelligent Investor the stock market bible ever since its original publication in 1949.

    Over the years, market developments have proven the wisdom of Graham's strategies. While preserving the integrity of Graham's original text, this revised edition includes updated commentary by noted financial journalist Jason Zweig, whose perspective incorporates the realities of today's market, draws parallels between Graham's examples and today's financial headlines, and gives readers a more thorough understanding of how to apply Graham's principles.

      Summary of Benjamin Graham's The Intelligent Investor - IRB Media

      Insights from Chapters 1-2

      #1

      The definition of an investment is clear: it’s an operation which, after careful analysis, promises safety of principal and adequate returns.

      #2

      There are three parts to the process of investing. First, before buying a stock, you must make a thorough analysis of a company and the soundness of its underlying businesses. Second, you need to protect yourself against serious losses. Third, you should aim for adequate performance, not extraordinary.

      #3

      Investing and speculating are vastly different. Investors calculate what stocks are worth, based on the value of their businesses, while speculators gamble whether a stock will go up or down in price based on whether others are going to pay more or less for it.
