Synopsis

Excess Returns is a practitioner s guide on how to navigate the stock markets to achieve market-beating returns. It explains how investment legends racked up their impressive track records over the past fifty to hundred years. Excess Returns takes over where traditional literature on the world s greatest investors leaves off. It systematically discusses all aspects relevant to investment processes in-depth and based on the advice of dozens of top investors. It zooms in on the striking and surprising similarities in the ways great investors manage their portfolios. It explains why their approaches make sense. It reveals numerous crucial subtleties in their methods that most professional and non-professional investors tend to overlook or ignore. It points out the many investment mistakes that most people make unconsciously and explains why they run counter to the methods of successful investors. And it pays special attention to two critical elements that few people pay attention to: adherence to an effective investment philosophy and investment intelligence. Excess Returns is extremely relevant after the recent lost decade that has squashed confidence in the stock market. The book points the way to investors who are at a loss and who still lick their wounds after the technology crash of the early 2000s, the credit crisis of 2008-2009 and the (European) sovereign debt crisis of 2010-2012. Excess Returns is chock-full of hands-on and timeless advice from top investors that will help investors to focus on the most promising opportunities in the stock market. It gives countless tips on how one can make money over bull and bear markets and over periods where the stock market basically goes nowhere. And it shows how one can defend one s portfolio against brutal market drops like the ones we have experienced recently.
