A Brief Stock Market History

It gets straight to the point and gives valuable information.

It gets right to the point, a very good guide.

This is a solid quick read when it comes to getting some general tips to the stock market and the way it behaves. But I believe the title is a bit misleading because it only uses a few references to certain instances in the stock market's past. It does not give a general history about how it started, how it works, or major events that have happened (other than a few). This quick read is more about giving you a few things to think about when investing rather than learning about the history of the stock market.

This book does NOT help a reader to build a quality portfolio of value stocks. Some timeless value investing lessons are not clearly presented. I would rather study other stock market books.

Fantastic read! Used these principals and have had success, started with $6k in 2007, and now have $43... All using these principals.
