Intelligent Investor by Benjamin Graham (183)

The Intelligent Investor (1949) by Benjamin Graham is widely regarded as the definitive guide to value investing. Graham introduces enduring principles like margin of safety, treating the market as the emotional allegory “Mr. Market”, and distinguishing between investment and speculation. These lessons—centered on disciplined, long-term strategies—have profoundly influenced generations of investors, including Warren Buffett who famously called it “by far the best book on investing ever written.” The book’s relevance endures, especially in its revised editions which include insightful commentaries by Jason Zweig adapting Graham’s wisdom to modern market behaviors and innovations such as cryptocurrencies
