Investing: Learn What the Experts Aren't Telling You and Invest With More Confidence Than Ever

How to move beyond guessing about manager skill with decision-based analytics, not the outcome-based analytics used at present. Skill is the raison d’être for active equity management. Yet precious little is known about manager skill. What is skill? Who has it? How should it be measured? Is a manager’s skill improving, declining, or remaining consistent? Without answers to such fundamental questions, capital allocators have no choice but to rely on inferences, hunches, and guesswork. In Skill Versus Luck, Michael Ervolini explains how to move beyond skill fog with newer analytics developed over the past decade. Unlike conventional analytics that simply rehash fund outcomes, the newer cause-and-effect analytics relate a manager’s decisions to fund excess returns, providing rigorous measures of manager skill. Results from these newer analytics enable capital allocators to understand manager skill for the first time and make more effective allocation decisions.

Simple Money Lessons for Long-Term Wealth and Financial Freedom

Invest Early, Live Free

Clear thinking. Confident investing.

No matter your portfolio size, Thesis and Conviction offers a proven framework for investing with clarity. Steve Ankerstar and Mike Younkman reveal the two-part system that transforms investing from reactive guessing into intentional action: know why you own what you own, and size positions based on how strongly you believe.

If you're struggling with investments, the problem isn't the market-it's that you don't have a framework. Most investors can't explain in thirty seconds why they own a single position. They panic during downturns. They follow cookie-cutter solutions that drain returns through hidden fees. You don't rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your process.

Drawing on decades of experience-including combat aviation and hard-won investment lessons-the
authors deliver straight talk any investor can apply.

Learn how to:Have a thesis and know exactly when to buy &amp; sell
Stay anchored during volatility
Find purpose beyond the numbers



Your financial future deserves better than guesswork.

Thesis and Conviction

What if the only thing separating you from becoming an investor is that no one ever showed you how?

In The First Generation Investor, Senior Portfolio Manager Juliana Salamone, CFP®, offers a practical, approachable guide for people who earn and save but still feel unsure about what comes next.

Maybe the market feels intimidating. Maybe you have a 401(k) or investment account but aren't entirely sure what you own-or why. Maybe someone else has always handled the finances, and you're ready to understand them for yourself.

Juliana knows what it means to begin without a roadmap. She entered the financial industry from the ground up and built a career in investment management by learning one concept at a time.

Now, she helps readers do the same.

Inside, readers will learn how to build a strong financial foundation, understand investment accounts, create a diversified portfolio, navigate workplace investing, and stay on track through changing markets and changing seasons of life.

You don't need investing to become your whole life-you just need to know enough to take ownership of your financial future.

The First Generation Investor

"Covers all fixed income instruments, the basis of their analysis, the portfolio strategies with them, and portfolio management"--

Introduction to Fixed-Income Analysis and Portfolio Management

In 1952, in a seminal paper published in the Journal of Finance, Professor Harry Markowitz called diversification "the only free lunch in finance." Of course, Markowitz went on to win the Nobel Prize for his groundbreaking work which still serves as the cornerstone of investment strategy for academics and professionals alike. And while, to this day, the concept of diversification has stood the test of time, the whole "only free lunch in finance" thing is about to go the way of the dodo (just like that expression).

You see, there's a new Little Investment in town, and as hard as it is to believe, investors can now and forevermore get started on their second free meal. What makes something a "free lunch"? How about an investment that sounds too good to be true? Though this Little Investment just doesn't seem fair and shouldn't even exist-now it does.

If you're still young, here's a way to save for retirement in a tax-advantaged way while achieving higher compounded returns. But if you're older, perhaps achieving higher portfolio returns while taking less risk is more appealing. This Little Investment can do that too! If you're from the "if this is so great, how come it hasn't been done before" school of investing, we feel your pain. But nothing can be done about that now. That's actually what makes this investment opportunity new. Investors both young and old will now, for the first time anywhere, have a chance to learn about the fascinating, fun and previously untold story behind The Little Investment that Beats the Market.

Learn a better way to invest from a bestselling author and top-performing fund manager

What if there were a better way to invest in stocks, bonds, real estate and other assets? What if this better way was simple, staring the investment world in the face for decades, but no one knew about it? What if it could help investors achieve higher returns, be more tax efficient, or even achieve the same returns with less risk? What if it were easy for both individual investors and sophisticated institutions to benefit? In other words, what if there were a new book that revealed a better way to invest that, until now, no one thought possible?

Well, ready or not, here comes The Little Investment that Beats the Market. Written simply, with humor, and a sincere desire to shake up the entire investment world. Author Joel Greenblatt is the founder of Gotham Capital and a managing principal and co-CIO of Gotham Asset Management. For over two decades, he served as a professor on the adjunct faculty of Columbia Business School. Joel is the former chairman of a Fortune 500 company, a co-founder and former chairman of the Success Academy Charter Network, and the author of The Little Book That Beats the Market (2006) and The Little Book That Still Beats the Market (2010).

The Little Investment that Beats the Market

From veteran Financial Times journalist, an epic history of the debt that built the modern world. Long considered the "boring" corner of finance, bonds are anything but. They have funded everything from the Crusades to climate tech, Netflix series to AI data centers. They are now bigger than the stock market and rival even the global banking system in influence. They are also misunderstood—treated as mere debt, when in fact their form, function, and impact are radically different. In A Fabulous Debt, Robin Wigglesworth—The Financial Times’ Global Finance Correspondent, and author of the acclaimed Trillions—offers a sweeping, affectionate history of the bond market. From the dyke-builders of 17th-century Holland to the trillion-dollar portfolios of BlackRock, this is a people’s history of finance: rich in drama, full of colorful characters, and bursting with insight.&nbsp; With clarity and wit, Wigglesworth takes readers from medieval Venice to modern Wall Street, tracing how bonds evolved from obscure financial instruments into the invisible architecture of the modern world. Along the way, we meet warlords and water boards, merchant princes and mathematicians, financiers and fraudsters—all of whom helped build the most powerful machine in global finance. This isn’t just a book about the past. It's a guide to the present and future of the financial system—and a love letter to the engine that keeps it running.

The Investment Onboarding Playbook

“One of the best investing books ever written.” —Charlie Munger From an award-winning financial journalist, a fresh and insightful book that draws on interviews with more than forty of the world’s super-investors to demonstrate that the keys to building wealth also apply to everyday life. Billionaire investors. If we think of them, it’s with a mixture of awe and suspicion. Clearly, they possess a kind of genius—the proverbial Midas Touch. But are the skills they possess transferable? And do they have anything to teach us besides making money. In Richer, Wiser, Happier, William Green draws on interviews that he’s conducted over twenty-five years with many of the world’s greatest investors. As he discovered, their talents extend well beyond the financial realm. The most successful investors are mavericks and iconoclasts who question conventional wisdom and profit vastly from their ability to think more rationally, rigorously, and objectively. They are master game players who consciously maximize their odds of long-term success in markets and life, while also minimizing any risk of catastrophe. They draw powerful insights from many different fields, are remarkably intuitive about trends, practice fanatical discipline, and have developed a high tolerance for pain. As Green explains, the best investors can teach us not only how to become rich, but how to improve the way we think, reach decisions, assess risk, avoid costly errors, build resilience, and turn uncertainty to our advantage. Green ushers us into the lives of more than forty super-investors, visiting them in their offices, homes, and even their places of worship—all to share what they have to teach us. From Sir John Templeton to Charlie Munger, Jack Bogle to Ed Thorp, Will Danoff to Mohnish Pabrai, Joel Greenblatt to Howard Marks, Green explains how they think and why they win. Profound, practical, and “unexpectedly illuminating” (Peter Diamandis), Richer, Wiser, Happier provides “many nuggets of wisdom” (The Washington Post) that will enrich you both financially and personally.

How most investing decisions differ from what the data say works—and how replacing myth with measurement can improve outcomes. The Accidental Venture Capitalist examines how early-stage investment decisions are actually made—and why so many of them diverge from what the evidence says should work. Written by an academic-turned-venture capitalist Scott Shane, the book sits at the intersection of rigorous research and lived investing experience. Its central premise is simple but uncomfortable: in venture capital, folklore and intuition dominate practice, even though decades of empirical research offer more reliable guidance on selection, pricing, portfolio construction, and incentives. The book follows the full arc of the venture process, from fund design and deal sourcing to valuation, syndication, follow-on investing, governance, and exits. Each chapter takes a familiar maxim—“bet on the jockey,” “do more diligence,” “double down on winners”—and tests it against large-sample academic evidence and real investment outcomes. Shane’s analysis is grounded in power-law economics, behavioral decision-making, and incentive alignment. And he is transparent about mistakes as well as successes, treating his own funds as a living laboratory rather than a victory lap. The book also offers practical tools—checklists, heuristics, simple models—that translate evidence into decisions investors can actually implement.
