In the New York Times bestselling book, Debunkery: Learn It, Do It, and Profit From It—Seeing Through Wall Street’s Money-Killing Myths, author Ken Fisher addresses common investments complaints and details why so many investors fail to get the long-term results they desire. The short answer is many investors fail to question if what they believe is true—and are therefore blinded by tradition, biases, ideology, or any number of cognitive errors. The problem is, the errors don’t seem like mistakes—they seem like smart, intuitive, and/or widely recognized investing “wisdoms.” But much of what’s accepted as investing “wisdom” is, instead, bunk. How can investors tell bunk from reality?
In short, accessible, and highly entertaining chapters, Debunkery details and debunks 50 common Wall Street myths—and gives you the tools you need to continue to do your own debunkery for the rest of your investing career.
