A new edition of The Intelligent Investor


A rite of passage for many investors is reading Benjamin Graham’s classic 1949 text, The Intelligent Investor. I’m no exception, and consuming the book avidly some years ago was a milestone in my journey from employee to early retiree.

Some good news has appeared on Amazon.

Timed for the 75th anniversary of the original’s publication, a new edition of the Intelligent Investor will be published in late October 2024.
Notably all the commentaries have been updated as per this post from Jason Zweig himself:


This fact alone makes a purchase of the new edition likely to be an intelligent investment.
