Reminiscences of a Stock Operator

Edwin Lefèvre

Recommended by 2 people on the record.

The bar next to each date shows how long ago it was said: 7d is days, 4yr is years.

Guy Spier liked it
Before I discovered value investing, I was captivated by two other investment classics: Edwin Lelevre’s Reminiscences of a Stock Operator and The Alchemy of Finance by George Soros.

It was perfect timing, as I had just read Reminiscences of a Stock Operator and was convinced I was going to be the next Jesse Livermore.

That little bar

It says how long ago something was said, so you can tell last month from 2014 without doing the arithmetic. Full and green is recent; it drains and cools as the date gets older, and empties completely at about 6 years.

A striped bar means the date itself is an estimate — the source did not carry an exact one. An entry with no date at all gets no bar.
