A revelatory new guide to becoming a smarter investor, drawing upon behavioral psychology, economic modeling, and market history to offer practical advice for reaching your financial goals"With the equity and fixed-income markets off to a rough start in 2022, investors might do well to review the lessons shared in Mr. Nations´s book." -Wall Street JournalThe human brain is ill-suited to making wise investment decisions. We are overconfident in our own knowledge and hunches, terrible at assessing risk, and prone to chasing financial thrills rather than measured long-term goals. Making matters worse, periods of severe market turbulence-whether the dotcom bubble of the late 90´s, the Great Recession a decade later, or the brief, vertiginous COVID crash of 2020-bring out our most irrational selves, at the exact moment when the consequences for investment mistakes are most severe.

In The Anxious Investor, he teaches readers how to understand markets, master their own fear, and make the most of their money. Drawing upon cutting-edge research in behavioral psychology, Nations shows that the secrets to excellent investing lie in mastering the quirks of human psychology. How are some investors able to make prudent decisions under pressure, while others rely on gut instinct to disastrous effect? How can we prepare for a market crash before it happens? And what can help us stay the course when the waters get choppy? Using the stories of three infamous market bubbles as his backdrop, Nations offers readers history´s hard-earned lessons about greed, volatility, and value.Whether you´re saving for retirement, a home, or a child´s college education, The Anxious Investor offers a blueprint for achieving your goals. While we can never know exactly which financial surprises may loom ahead, here is an indispensable resource for investors to make sense of them.mehr

Kritik
"I often say that fear, greed, hope, and ignorance are the four horsemen of the investment apocalypse, and note, only one is not an emotion. Emotional decisions may be made in the heat of a market meltdown, but also when markets are seemingly going to the moon. In The Anxious Investor, Scott Nations offers a close look at why these emotions are so destructive to your investment goals and offers a checklist of these emotional biases to help the reader understand and avoid them. The next time the market gets crazy, having this book by your side may help you overcome those four horsemen and stick with your long-term objectives." JIM O'SHAUGHNESSY, New York Times Bestselling Author of What Works on Wall Streetmehr
