The Definitive Guide to Financial Market Returns and Long-Term Investment Strategies
Jeremy Siegel
Stocks for the Long Run provides a detailed analysis of the stock market's historical trends and long-term investment strategies. The book, updated to reflect current market conditions, includes discussions on value investing, ESG issues, the impact of the financial crisis, and the role of international investing. Siegel argues that stocks have consistently outperformed other asset classes over the long term, averaging returns of 6.5 to 7 percent per year after inflation. The book also addresses market valuation, the effects of inflation and interest rates, and the importance of diversification in a global economy.
Over the weekend, a Trump-backed memecoin was, for a moment, worth over $10 billion. For another moment, TikTok was banned; then it wasn’t. When so much is in flux and anything can go to the moon, how do you figure out what actually matters?
