Books

A book is a dream that you hold in your hand

We all have just landed in the New Year; carrying some of our old dreams which could not be met with and lot of new dreams, new goals & new expectations. We are filled with lot of new energy to accomplish our dreams. The best we can try is to move at least a single step every day towards the fulfillment of our dream.

‘Whenever you read a good book, somewhere in the world a door opens to allow in more light’

Vera Nazarian

I have thought of taking the small step with opening a door of enlightenment for me with lot of good knowledge so I can implement it in my long term investment strategy and become a value investor. And, I believe this enlightenment can be brought upon by reading quality books.

Below is a list of books which I am targeting to read this year:

  1. The Intelligent Investor by Benjamin Graham (Re-read)
  2. Security Analysis by Benjamin Graham
  3. One Up On Wall Street by Peter Lynch
  4. Common Stocks And Uncommon Profits by Philip Fisher (Re-read)
  5. The Little Book That Builds Wealth by Pat Dorsey
  6. Buffett: The Making of an American Capitalist by Roger Lowenstein
  7. Value Investing: From Graham To Buffett and Beyond by Bruce Greenwald
  8. 100 To 1 In The Stock Markets by Thomas Phelps
  9. Poor Charlie’s Almanac by Peter Kaufman
  10. Accounting For Value by Stephen Penman
  11. How To Pick Stocks Like Warren Buffet by Timothy Vick
  12. The Five Rules For Successful Stock Investing by Pat Dorsey
  13. Conservative Investors Sleep Well by Philip Fisher
  14. The Most Important Thing by Howard Marks
  15. Thoughtful Investor by Basant Maheshwari
  16. Stocks For The Long Run by Jeremy J. Siegel
  17. The Essays of Warren Buffett: Lessons for Corporate America Lessons for Corporate America by Lawrence A. Cunningham

So, this is all about my list. Recommend every reader to find his/her interest area, their dreams and books in relation to that field. There is no friend as loyal as a book. A book is your best guide, friend, pathway or whatever you like to call it….but it never leaves your hand.

Someone has very rightly said:

‘If one cannot enjoy reading a book over and over again, there is no use in reading it at all’
