The Intelligent Investor: The Definitive Book on Value Investing (Third Edition)

Value investing as Benjamin Graham defined it rests on a few durable ideas: a margin of safety, a clear line between investing and speculating, and treating the market as a moody counterparty rather than a guide. This third edition presents Graham's text with commentary that sets each chapter against later market history, so the original material on defensive and enterprising investors sits beside notes on how those ideas held up. Coverage runs through stock and bond selection, the behaviour of market prices, and the discipline required to act against a crowd. It reads as an educational framework, not as advice on any particular security. The shape of the book: • Graham's original chapters paired with chapter-by-chapter modern commentary • The margin-of-safety principle developed at length rather than mentioned in passing • Separate paths set out for defensive and more active investors • Harper Business third edition of a long-established finance text For serious beginners and experienced investors alike, published by Harper Business and available at Boipoka.
