Winning the loser's game

Timeless Strategies for Successful Investing

Book • 2021

Charles D. Ellis

In 'Winning the Loser's Game,' Charles D. Ellis explains that investing has become a 'loser's game' where the outcome is determined by the mistakes of the loser, rather than the skills of the winner.

Ellis advocates for a focus on developing and adhering to wise and appropriate investment policies, emphasizing the importance of understanding client needs, avoiding high fees, and investing for the long term.

The book includes updated chapters on bond investing, investor behavior, and the impact of technology on investment decisions, while reinforcing core principles of successful investing such as indexing and reducing costs.
