The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I am interested in getting some recommendations on books that teach you how to value a stock. I will share some recommendations of good books in general.

I am going to list books that take different approaches since I think that there are many ways to make money in the market.

For making money buying options, I love the book, “Intrinsic by Michael Yuen” He teaches you how to buy stocks using Deep In the Money Leaps, and you can make 2.5x what you would make by buying the stock long.

For learning how to value a stock, how to make money selling options, and also for some life lessons, I like the book, “Wealthy and Wise by David Chenier”.
Finally, many people are really not cut out to buy their own stocks.

For them books on Asset Allocation are the way to go. There is a lot to be said for this approach. It allows you to set it and forget it and spend your time focused on other things, but still have a very responsible approach to investing. There are two authors I like. William Bernstein and Richard Ferri.
