From the jacket flap
Ken Fisher has had an illustrious career. He is the founder and CEO of Fisher Investments, an independent money management firm managing over $35 billion for individuals and institutions. And, Fisher has written the monthly "Portfolio Strategy" column for Forbes magazine for the last 25 years, making him, so far, the fourth longest-running columnist in the magazine's history. During this time, he's witnessed everything from the stock market crash of 1987 and the great bull markets of the 1980s and 1990s to the Tech bubble of 2000 and the global market meltdown of 2008.
Now, with The Making of a Market Guru, you'll gain insight into Fisher's prolific career and discover the high-profile market calls he's made so far in his monthly columns. Engaging and informative, as well as revealing and timely, this book is a sweeping look at a recent and eventful slice of stock market history. You'll read about what's changed, but you'll be more amazed by what hasn't. And you'll see investing wisdom that still applies, now and for the foreseeable future, from a quarter-century of Fisher's concise and witty market wisdom.
