Now, with The Making of a Market Guru, you’ll gain an insightful look at Fisher’s prolific career over the years and discover the high-profile market calls he’s made so far in these monthly columns. At times engaging and timely, at others revealing and informative, this book is a sweeping look at a recent and eventful slice of stock market history. You’ll read about what’s changed, but you’ll be more amazed by what hasn’t. And you’ll see investing wisdom that still applies, now and for the foreseeable future, from a quarter-century of Fisher’s concise and witty market wisdom.
Preceding Fisher’s columns for each year are a few pages of commentary―putting them in historic context, pointing out areas that are still salient, and others where Fisher’s perspective has changed over the years―highlighting key points that deserve extra attention.
Chapter by chapter, this book offers practical investment advice from a leading market voice, while:
- Looking at Fisher’s market analysis over the years and providing an industry insider’s view of major, and not-so-major, market events
- Examining how Fisher called three of the last four bear markets
- Showing that what many commonly think impacts markets doesn’t―and some very surprising things that do impact markets that few are aware of.
- And much more
The more things change, the more they stay the same―at least when it comes to investing. And seeing history through the eyes of a market guru can help improve your overall investment endeavors today. If you take the time to read this unique, historic compilation, you’ll be taking your first steps to understanding how to become your own market guru.
