The Five Rules Successful Stock Investing: Morningstar's Guide to Building Wealth and Winning in the Market Paperback – 15 Dec. 2004

Overall, this is a good, good book, and all novice investors should read this before embarking on personal investments beyond the obvious cash ISAs and mortgage. The sensible, sceptical approach to investing and assessing value in investment decision making should save every investor money. The great thing about the writers is that they've done this stuff 12-14 hours a day for decades and have seen it all (and lost and made plenty of money over that time). The reader benefits from their expertise and hard lessons they have learned, and since unlike IFAs, they have nothing to sell you, the advice is both smart and impartial. The basic explanations of valuation are more challenging, but for most these concepts are less important than their core messages about discipline, research and caution. Anyone considering getting into investments really should read this.

Excellent book. It is not for light reading. if you want to skim through this is not the right book for u. People with decent investment experience can gain much from this book

I'm still reading this but so far it has not disappointed me. There are few books better pitched, at this level.

Great book. Easy to read. Rich in information. Highly recommended to anyone who wants to invest in the stock market.

A bit old, but still very relevant book for new investors.

For the price, the books gives some decent insight into a portfolio of different industries and what to look for before buying its stock.

so much detail was going into this book, a very good consolidation of my previous finance knowledge, as well as some very practical guidance towards investment.
