Interesting but not all that helpful

Recenserad i Storbritannien den 7 augusti 2022

Verifierat köp

Read as part of an introduction to investing. Broadly the concepts in this book are understandable and can be applied today. But for beginners and small investors, the chances of you being able to implement these plays is little to none.
The book doesn’t advertise itself as a guide to investing and is more of an investing autobiography. Still, good to learn how top investors think and act.

Good for a historical perspective

Recenserad i USA 🇺🇸 den 22 december 2015

Verifierat köp

This is a good read for beginner and experienced investors because it gives you a historical perspective of the stock market and sets a good ground work for diving deeper into learning about investing. The main issue here is the fact that the book was written in 1989 which makes it somewhat irrelevant to today's market in certain instances. There is a new foreword written in the late 90s but it's still a far cry from being an in depth look at modern markets.

The good news is that most of the advice in the book is relatively timeless and can still be applied to stock analysis today. The first part of the book goes into detail about Lynch's investing career and his best and worst stock moves. The idea behind this is interesting but it didn't work for me sometimes in execution. It's quite easy to look back at an investment five years later and say this is why it was a good or bad idea in hindsight but it doesn't tell us much about what we can do to make sure we're making the right choices in the future. Still this part of the book is good because it gives you a good look at how people reacted to stock market news back in the 80s and it's quite similar to how the markets react to news now. It was interesting to read about the paranoia around stock market crashes and how expensive securities were thought to be back and how that compares to current market conditions.

The second part of the book goes into more detail on Lynch's personal investing philosophy which is relatively simple but a good start for someone new to investing. It's a relatively easy process to follow and it all makes sense and can certainly give individual investors a slight advantage over those who don't do the same type of research but for me this book was just a starting point and that's what makes it good. It's a good introduction to investing - giving historical insights to the market conditions in the 80s and 90s as well as a way for individual investors to evaluate the prospects of a stock.

I'm not sure I cared for all the analysis of Lynch's personal trades as I feel like they were cherry picked to look good or bad in hindsight but I don't see how that adds any value to the individual investors as they naturally weren't so obvious when the investments were made or Lynch wouldn't have made them. The type of 'of course stock A went down 50% because of A,B,C now that I look back on it' and 'of course stock B was a good investment and went up 5x because of D,E,F' just didn't work for me because it felt like fluff to pad the length of the book. Still, I think learning about the viewpoints others had about the market in the 90s and how it mirrors how we look at our markets now was interesting and the investing theory presented in the 2nd part of the book had value too.

We want Peter Lynch in the place of Jim Cramer

Recenserad i USA 🇺🇸 den 3 augusti 2013

Verifierat köp

The world would be a better place if Peter Lynch replaced Jim Cramer in the "Mad Money" TV show. He gives useful and intelligent tips, he's humble, he tells funny jokes, he's able to say things that follow the Aristotelian logic.

I must admit it. After reading Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity , I promised to myself that I would never ever again read a book with a standing suited author in the cover. Despite the trauma, I decided to make an exception for Mr. Lynch, as this little book is wildly praised among the investment community. I'm glad I read it! Not only that, now the probability that I read this other book has increased from nil to very small: Why We Suck: A Feel Good Guide to Staying Fat, Loud, Lazy and Stupid

I find this book useful for both the professional and the layman. For the professional, the value comes from the fact that part of the content here definitely won't be found in the usual Graham-Buffett-Fischer-Klarman-Mauboussin-Montier combo. Peter Lynch's work is somewhat original, in the sense that it places emphasis on some aspects of a good investment that are, at most, briefly mentioned in the classic works above. For the layman, the content is much more useful than what you hear from Jim Cramer and your sales broker combined (well, that's not very difficult). If Lynch's advice aids you to buy only one bagger stock (and it can help you on it), that's awesome enough.

The only drawback of the book is that, sometimes, it oversimplifies complex things. This seems to have been done with the intent of not confusing the layman and trying to make clear explanations to the general public. This is indeed a noble purpose. But, to some, it may give the misleading impression that the collective of very intelligent market participants are doing stupid things all the time. Don't get me wrong: despite attracting some of the best talent and brains around, the group wisdom of the market does stupid things on a few occasions. But that's the exception, not the rule. Finding truly outstanding opportunities in the market is very hard.

With that warning made clear, almost everything else here is worth the read. I definitely think you should put this one in your priority list of investment books.

OLD BUT VALID

Recenserad i USA 🇺🇸 den 1 december 2014

Verifierat köp

I really enjoyed the reading of the book "One Up On Wall Street" by Peter Lynch.

It gives suggestions and tips to invest in the stock market. Unlike other financial investment books, One Up On Wall Street is written by a person that really made money on the financial markets. Peter Lynch infact was portfolio manager of Fidelity Magellan Fund.

First I found the book very interesting. There are lots of stories of financial stocks that help the reader to understand better the market variables. Also if the reader isn't very interested in the stock investment sector, this book provides detailed examples and reports of the trend of the financial markets strongly related to the trend of the American life (like the boom of the consumption in the sixties or the oil price crises).

Secondly I found the way the book is written very nice and light. Also if the topic is difficult and requires a little of knowledge, Peter Lynch is able to make the reader comfortable with financial terms and financial topics. In certain parts the book is also entertaining and intriguing. For example I really liked the parts where Lynch invents and develops words and anecdotes ("ten-bagger" or "the 6 categories for the stocks").

Thirdly I really like the way the book is subdivided. Beginning with a introduction, Lynch first puts the basis for the investments, then analyses possible stocks and way to pick winning stocks, ultimately he explains particular facts of the stock investments (such as portfolio, futures and possibilities to trade). I found it very ordered and linear.

The only weak part is that in certain parts the book is old and dated, for example when he speaks about the rule of the brokers or the way to take informations about a company. Today investors act with online banking, without passing anymore through telephones, journals and brokers.

In conclusion, although is a very old book if we consider that stock markets are very changed in the last twenty years, it is still a good book for investors that are approaching the financial markets for the first time and not.

Divertente ma se fate sul serio leggete anche un libro di Jack Bogle

Recenserad i Italien 🇮🇹 den 20 maj 2019

Verifierat köp

Il libro è per metà un'autobiografia di uno dei più celebri gestori di fondi azionari (anni '80) e per l'altra un compendio di suggerimenti su come selezionare titoli azionari. L'ho letto con piacere. Nonostante l'argomento possa facilmente risultare indigesto lo stile è agile e frizzante. Istruttive anche alcune parti che illuminano sulla finanza comportamentale nel mercato azionario. Senz'altro consigliabile a chi si avvicina al mondo degli investimenti, ma anche un'ottima ricetta per fare un disastro nelle finanze personali se messo in pratica.

Il problema è che di gestori di fondi azionari 'attivi' (cioè in cui i titoli vengono selezionati appunto da... un gestore) di successo come Peter Lynch ce ne sono stati veramente pochi e per un motivo preciso. E' infatti noto a livello statistico che, nel lungo periodo, la performance dei fondi attivi è distribuita in modo casuale attorno ad una media rappresentata dagli indici di mercato (S&P500 per esempio) MENO i costi di gestione imputati al cliente (tipicamente il 2%).

In sostanza Lynch rappresenta un esempio di campione posto all'estremità superiore della distribuzione, in tutta verosimiglianza performance ottenuta per pura fortuna!

Alternativamente se ammettiamo che avesse delle qualità superiori dobbiamo domandarci perchè NOI dovremmo fare meglio di una popolazione di gestori attivi che complessivamente non fa meglio del caso (cioè di un fondo passivo indicizzato).

Leggete questo libro perchè è divertente, ma non come guida agli investimenti. Se fate sul serio fatevi un gran favore, leggete uno dei libri di Jack Bogle in cui sfata il mito della gestione attiva e indica la direzione da seguire a noi investitori: fondi indicizzati a basso costo (o in Italia un buon ETF mondiale a basso costo — più facile da acquistare).

Everything That is Wrong with Wall Street

Recenserad i USA 🇺🇸 den 25 augusti 2013

Verifierat köp

This book really deserves 5 stars, but some of the overriding themes are disturbing so 4 stars says its good, but I cannot give it my endorsement. Legality, morals, and ethics. Peter Lynch knows how to separate all of them to be the best Wall Streeter out there. I appreciate his ability to be objective and to fulfill his #1 objective: Making Money!

The smiling man on the cover tells you:

Never invest in a cure. Invest in companies that produce products that are needed in perpetuity. Cancer, AIDS, whatever. Keep those pills coming! The Polio vaccine must have had pharmaceutical companies cringing. You shouldn't cure it. Just prolong it!

Women are dumb: They like to buy high margin retail junk such as handbags and shoes. It's much easier to profit from these female buyers (men make it, women spend it) than typical male enterprises in energy, transportation, and defense. This book was written a while ago and Lynch proves correct. He uses The Limited as his example, but check out Coach (COH). All those Chinese made items being scooped up by the armful! And recently Michael Kors (KORS). En feugo! Pun intended.

Invest in things you know. He gives an example that goes like this. A doctor invests in oil companies and the oil man invests in Health Care companies. Makes no sense.

Lynch's investing techniques and guidance do make a ton of sense. He does not show much emotion and not much if any empathy, which makes him a good fit for lower Manhattan. Using his thought process will indeed help you invest wisely for the sake of personal profit.

If you do well enough by his guidelines you will be able to buy the latest Louis Vuitton man bag or maybe even some shares!

LVMH!

How to get the ten-bagger

Recenserad i USA 🇺🇸 den 16 november 2006

Verifierat köp

I enjoyed reading and learned a lot from this book. Peter Lynch discusses how he was so successful in managing his Magellan Fund and how the individual investor can do even better. Here are some key learning from this book:

1. Stay completely invested in stocks at all times. Stocks that have good fundamentals. Ride the downs of the market. (I disagree with this at certain times, like after the Internet bust and 9/11 I preferred to be in cash for months after these events and it saved me Thousands)

2. Consumers that stumble onto excellent businesses have an advantage over financial managers. However you must examine the companies financials and successful growth prospects before investing.

3. Holding great stocks for 3-4 years lead to the best returns.

4. Mr. Lynch agrees with Warren Buffet that options and futures should be outlawed. He believes in sticking with stocks due to the fact that 80=95% of option investors lose money.

5. Do the home work on the businesses underlying the stocks you own to determine whether they are still a great company. Beware of high p/E ratios they should equal annual growth prospects.

6. Do not invest in stocks with money you can not afford to lose.

7. Stick with dull companies you understand with great growth potential.

8. Pay attention for investment opportunities in your day to day life.

He also discussed different types of companies: stalwarts(Blue Chip), fast growers, slow growers, cyclicals, asset plays and turnarounds. It is vital you understand what kind of company you are investing in and the nature of stock moves for its kind.

I can not begin to do justice to this book with this short review, buy it to add another dimension to your stock trading.

(Ignore the bad reviewers of this book, they are not qualified to judge Peter Lynch, the man's record as a mutual fund manager speaks for itself and so does his book).

Great primer for value investing...

Recenserad i Storbritannien den 14 februari 2012

Verifierat köp

what i liked about lynch's book is that from the out set it's incredibly easy to read. too many investing books are written in such a boring, dry manner one struggles to stay awake while reading them - and more often than not feel guilty because the reader feels they are missing "great advice" when tryiong to decipher the text. not with this little gem.

the book covers how to find companies to invest in, how to value companies, and when to get out of companies invested in - the main theme running through the book is that an amateur investor can and will out perform professionals if they avoid the noise from wall street and focus on companies they understand.

the book gives great example of companies that were a "10 bagger/20 bagger" (meaning if you invested £1 you would have made £10/£20 etc.). lynch also gives example of where he missed companies/lost money as wekll - so the advice is very well rounded.

so why 4 stars? the book is well written with great examples and advice - but i question how relevant this is today when there are software packages and websites that can perform instant ratio checks, and profitability measures etc. - basically meaning that i am unsure whether lynch would have been as successful today as he was when the book was written - late 1980's. other than that, son't be put pff. this is a great book and well worth the read....
