Beschreibung

The final word on passive vs. active investing The debate on active investing-stock picking and market timing-versus passive investing-markets are highly efficient and almost impossible to outperform-has raged for decades. Which side is right? In The Quest for Alpha: The Holy Grail of Investing, author Larry E. Swedroe puts an end to the debate, proving once and for all that active investing is likely to prove futile as the associated expenses-costs, fees, and time spent analyzing individual stocks and the overall market-are likely to exceed any benefits gained. The book * Presents research, data, and quotations that reveal it's extremely difficult to outperform the market * Explains why investors should focus on asset allocation, fund construction, costs, tax efficiency, and the building of a globally diversified portfolio that minimizes, if not eliminates, the taking of idiosyncratic, uncompensated risks * Other titles by Swedroe: The Only Guide to Alternative Investments You'll Ever Need and The Only Guide You'll Ever Need for the Right Financial Plan Investors are on a never-ending search for a money manager who will deliver returns above the appropriate risk-adjusted benchmark, aka the "Holy Grail of Investing." The Quest for Alpha demonstrates that it's a loser's game-while it's possible to win, it's so unlikely that you shouldn't try.

Rezensionen


"As I noted recently, success in investing is somewhat counterintuitive, and requires most investors to set aside their pre-conceived notions of how to build a portfolio that will allow them to reach their goals. The task is made all the harder because the vast majority of the participants in the financial services industry spend hundreds of millions of dollars annually reinforcing the myth of active management. Fortunately for investors, experts like Larry Swedroe are hard at work pointing out the fallacies of those myths, while also detailing the undeniable logic and mathematics that underpin a passive approach. The Quest for Alpha is a wonderful addition to that effort, and investors will be well-rewarded by reading it and acting upon its wisdom."
