Synopsis

The Indomitable Investor deconstructs the stock market as the public has come to know it and reconstitutes it from the inside out from the perspective of the fortunate few who dominate Wall Street. By revealing how top investors and traders think and act Steven Sears shows the stock market to be an undulating ocean of money, with seasoned investors reading the waves others cannot. Teaching readers to think about the market in radically different ways, The Indomitable Investor shows how to improve returnsand, just as importantly, avoid losseswith disciplines deployed by people who almost always do exactly the opposite of what Wall Street says to do. Laying bare great fallacies, the book explains that non-professional investors wrongly think the stock market is a place to make money, which is what Wall Street wants them to try to do. The Indomitable Investor says otherwise and shows how Wall Street's best investors have a completely different focus. Explains the critical ideas and insights of top traders and investors in language anyone can understand and implement Packed with material rarely shared off Wall Street that is used every day by professional investors Introduces the 17 most important words on Wall Street Teaches critical skills, including: How to increase returns by focusing on risk, not potential profits; how to use the stock market's historical patterns to optimize investment decisions; understanding key relationships between stocks and the economy that predict what will happen to stocks and the broader market; how to increase mutual fund returns with an easy adjustment that redirects the bulk of profits to younot mutual fund companies, and how to analyze information like seasoned investors to move beyond "statement of the obvious" news reports that turn ordinary investors into Dumb Money Accessible to readers of all backgrounds, including those with a limited understanding of investing, The Indomitable Investor will change how investors view the stock market, Wall Street, and themselves.

Steven Sears is not presenting a specific plan for investing in this book. Please don't expect one. His objective is different....his focus is on the two persons every investor must beat in order to succeed....himself and the investor taking the other side of the trade. With respect to the first, ev......more

Goodreads review by Cal

Rather basic book in concept. Cant say I took away anything that valuable from it. Have read books by Benjamin Graham and Peter Lynch. This book seems fairly centered for beginners. Was hoping to find more tips or numbers to be mindful of before owning a company. Would recommend for beginners.......more

Discipline, resilience and self reliance It's a book of common sense. It lists out the benefits of a contrarian approach. It emphasizes the importance of personal attributes like discipline, resilience and self reliance. Some chapters are more relevant for US readers. It's a good read.......more
