About

Being a stock market investor has always been thought to be one of the best careers one can have, which is why this field is very competitive and difficult to grasp or enter.

In One Up on Wall Street, Peter Lynch dispels myths about what it takes to be a good investor and demonstrates how anyone can outperform renowned investors by employing logic and common sense as their primary analysis metrics.

It ultimately boils down to investing in firms that you understand.

Keep it simple instead of examining analyst ratings and recommendations regarding businesses that actually require rocket science to understand.

For example, perhaps you've been walking around your neighbourhood and noticed a popular donut shop.

Then, perhaps, you observed the same shop succeeding in another city during your trip.

You'll think to yourself, "Perhaps it's time to think about investing in it."

After all, that's how the Dunkin' Donuts stock was discovered by everyday folks.

Overcomplicating investing might sabotage your chances of having a profitable portfolio.

Simple, every-day stocks sometimes turn out to be among the strongest performers.

However, there are other factors to consider when selecting investments, such as how to appropriately assess and analyse the value of a company.

One Up on Wall Street is a highly valuable piece of literature about financial education and the stock market that should be on everyone's reading list since it has the ability to dramatically enhance one's finances if knowledge is put into practise.

This time-tested book is a must-read for every individual or institution looking for profitable investment options.

Peter Lynch is not only one of the greatest investors of the twentieth century, but he is also an exceptional writer who has inspired and assisted thousands of people in improving their financial situation.
