I am curious what the best books people ever read on investing. I will list some of mine. I like them all for different reasons. The first one is Analysis for Financial Management. This teaches you finance. There are problem to solve at the end of each chapter so you really learn it. The next one is the Four Pillars of Investing. This one teaches you about Asset Allocation. It is a little dated now. Another good one is called Value Growth Investing. This teaches you everything you could possibility want to know about analyzing a business qualitatively. Next is Technical Analysis of the Financial Markets: A Comprehensive Guide to Trading Methods and Applications. This is a text book on Technical Analysis. The first options book to read is the Encyclopedia of Covered Calls by Alan Elman. After you read that, I like the book Intrinsic, which tells you how to buy Deep In the Money Leaps. Finally, I like the book, Fire Your Stock Analyst which tells you in great detail how to pick stocks.
