About this ebook
This work offers a summary of the book "THE INTELLIGENT INVESTOR: The Classic Text on Value Investing" by Benjamin Graham.
Benjamin Graham (1894–1976) is widely regarded as the father of value investing. In 1949, he published The Intelligent Investor which encapsulates his thinking on how to be a successful investor.
According to Graham, an intelligent investor is "businesslike". It means that he or she approaches investing in just the same way as if one were to look at buying a business or a partnership in one. The sounder the investment principles you use, the better the results will be of your investment strategy.
In The Intelligent Investor, Benjamin Graham presents six key principles of intelligent investing such as "know the business you're investing in", "know who runs the business" and "choose investments for their fundamental value, not for their popularity".
According to the author, "successful investment may become substantially a matter of techniques and criteria that are learnable, rather than the product of unique and incommunicable mental powers".
Warren E. Buffet has described The Intelligent Investor as "the best book on investing ever written". Graham's advice and analytical guides are still valid for the contemporary investor.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Great short book. Its a common sense guide to investing.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Excellent!! A must read for beginners who contemplate their investment.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I am very much into value investing and this book, though short in length, is long in providing intelligent advice for stock and security selection and investing as a business. Benjamin Graham really knows how to describe and decipher the investing process. I've read the original book numerous times, each time gaining new ideas and concepts. I have even benefitted from reading this very well written summary. If you are involved in in investing, this book is well worth the time it takes to read.
