An Updated Investment Strategy for the Intelligent Investor
Discover the fortune that lies hidden in the stock market for everyone who wants to quit work someday. Will the stock market crash? Find out where and how to grow and protect your money over the next decade to get stellar returns, using this investment guide.
Almost fifty years have passed since Benjamin Graham wrote his seminal work The Intelligent Investor. Right now, at the start of 2021, we suspect he would be thinking “another stock market bubble.” What’s incredible is that most investors would agree with him (according to Robert Schiller’s crash confidence index)—but the stock market keeps growing and growing. Some of Graham’s advice is timeless—look for and buy value, and the rewards will come. However, renowned proponents of this advice, such as Warren Buffett, have not always found it easy to put into practice. Buffett had to sit on his hands for much of the past five or six years as value has been hard to find before finally investing (post-pandemic) in Japan in 2020. Sometimes you need immense patience and calm to follow Graham’s advice when everyone around you is making huge returns in a raging bull market. But does it pay off, or would you have just missed the investment returns of your lifetime?
Although the fundamentals of value investing have not changed, much of the advice in The Intelligent Investor was last updated in 1972. Fifty years of massive change in our markets, society, and technology has rendered a lot of the more specific information dated and worthless.
Everyone wants to know what the future will hold and predict where markets are going. Up or down? Is it the bottom or the top? Will we have deflation or inflation or even hyperinflation? Knowing the answer to these questions would, of course, be of massive financial benefit and remove much of the stress and worry from how we organize our financial affairs.
