The Intelligent Investor, 3rd Ed.: The Definitive Book on Value Investing

The Intelligent Investor: 75th Anniversary Edition is a timeless classic on investing, updated with new insights and commentaries, and remains as relevant today as it was when first published in 1949. Written by Benjamin Graham, the father of value investing, this book has influenced generations of investors, including some of the most successful minds in finance, such as Warren Buffett.

Graham’s core philosophy—“value investing”—is centered around the idea of making safe, sound investments by purchasing undervalued stocks and holding them for the long term. His principles help protect investors from emotional decision-making and market volatility, fostering a disciplined approach to building wealth over time.

In this 75th-anniversary edition, Graham’s original text remains untouched, but it includes an introduction and appendix by Warren Buffett, who credits Graham as one of his greatest mentors. Additionally, the book includes new commentaries on each chapter by Jason Zweig, a distinguished writer for the Wall Street Journal. These updated insights help make Graham’s principles even clearer and more applicable to today’s market conditions.

Warren Buffett calls it “by far the best book about investing ever written,” and for good reason—The Intelligent Investor has consistently proven its value over decades of market changes. In today’s volatile market, its lessons remain critical for investors who want to make intelligent, long-term decisions that protect their wealth and create opportunities for growth.
