Four Pillars Of Investing: Less*** 4？ 投资金律 英文原版 阿里云 lit azw3 txt pdf caj 下载 在线

The classic guide to c***tructing a solid portfolio— with out a

financial advisor!

“With relatively little effort, you can design and assemble an

investment portfolio that, because of its wide diversification and

minimal expenses, will prove superior to the most professionally

managed accounts. Great intelligence and good luck are not

required.”

William Bernstein’s comm***ense approach to

portfolio c***truction has served investors well during the past

turbulent decade—and it’s what made The Four Pillars of Investing

an instant classic when it was first published nearly a decade

ago.

This down-to-earth book lays out in

easy-to-understand prose the four essential topics that every

investor must master: the relati***hip of risk and reward, the

history of the market, the psychology of the investor and the

market, and the folly of taking financial advice from investment

salespeople.

Bernstein pulls back the curtain to reveal what

really goes on in today’s financial industry as he outlines a

*** program for building wealth while controlling risk.

Straightforward in its presentation and generous in its real-life

examples, The Four Pillars of Investing presents a no-n***ense

discussion of:

The art and science of mixing different asset

classes into an effective blend

The dangers of actively picking stocks, as

opposed to investing in the w*** market

Behavioral finance and how state of mind can

adversely affect decision ***

Reas*** the mutual fund and brokerage

industries, rather than your partners, are often your most direct

competitors

Strategies for managing all of your

assets—savings, 401(k)s, home equity—as one portfolio

Investing is not a destination. It is a journey,

and along the way are stockbrokers, journalists, and mutual fund

companies whose interests are diametrically opposed to yours.

More relevant today than ever, The Four Pillars

of Investing shows you how to determine your own financial

direction and assemble an investment program with the sole goal of

building long-term wealth for you and your family.

Buy only true no-load funds and annuities that do not carry fees of any type, including 12b-1 fees.

Over the past decade, the explosion of assets under management should have reduced fees via economies of scale. This increasing fee trend is nothing short of scandalous.

The story of Select Technology is emblematic of the nature of fund flows. First, they are most often contrary indicators—funds in high-performing sectors of the market tend to attract great piles of assets. In industry parlance, this is known as “*** money”: assets thrown by naïve investors at high past performance. It is more often than not a sign that the top is near. And even if it isn’t, it certainly serves as a drag on the performance of the funds, which are faced with deploying a large amount of capital in a fixed number of existing company shares.

Second, and most important, it highlights the conflict of interest between the investors and the fund company. Just as the brokerage firms exist to make clients trade as much as possible, the fund companies exist for one purpose: to collec...

1. Never, ever, pay a load on a mutual fund or annuity. And never pay an ongoing 12b-1 fee for a mutual fund or excessive annuity fees.

2. Do not chase the performance of active managers. Not only does past performance not predict future manager performance, but excellent performance leads to the rapid accumulation of assets, which increases impact costs and reduces future return.

3. Be cognizant of the corporate structure and culture of your fund company. To whom do its profits flow? Is it an investment firm or a marketing firm?

The popular conceit of every bull market is that the public has bought into the value of long-term investing and will never sell their stocks simply because of market fluctuation. And time after time, the investing public loses heart after the inevitable punishing declines that stock markets periodically dish out, and the cycle begins anew.

This is not a trivial issue. At a very early stage in history we are encountering “survivorship bias”—the fact that only the best results tend to show up in the history books. In the twentieth century, for example, investors in the U.S., Ca***, Sweden, and Switzerland did handsomely because they went largely untouched by the military and political disasters that befell most of the rest of the planet. Investors in tumultuous Germany, Japan, Argentina, and India were not so lucky; they obtained far smaller rewards.

Thus, it is highly misleading to rely on the investment performance of history’s most successful nati*** and empires as indicative of your own future returns.
