A Random Walk Down Wall Street

Book • 2003
In this book, Burton G. Malkiel argues that stock market prices are essentially random and unpredictable, aligning with the efficient market hypothesis.

He discusses historical financial bubbles, the futility of trying to beat the market through technical or fundamental analysis, and the importance of a diversified portfolio.

The book also covers various investing techniques and theories, including modern portfolio theory, and advises investors to adopt a long-term, disciplined approach to investing.
