About this listen
Over seven years, 45 of the world's top investors were given between $25 million and $150 million to invest by fund manager Lee Freeman-Shor. His instructions were simple. There was only one rule. They could invest in only their 10 best ideas to make money.
It seemed like a foolproof plan to make a lot of money. What could possibly go wrong? These were some of the greatest minds at work in the markets today - from top European hedge fund managers to Wall Street legends.
But most of the investors' great ideas actually lost money. Shockingly, a toss of a coin would have been a better method of choosing whether or not to invest in a stock.
Nevertheless, despite being wrong most of the time, many of these investors still ended up making a lot of money.
How could they be wrong most of the time and still be profitable?
The answer lay in their hidden habits of execution, which until now have only been guessed at from the outside world.
This audiobook lays bare those secret habits for the first time, explaining them with real-life data, case studies, and stories taken from Freeman-Shor's unique position of managing these investors on a day-to-day basis.
A riveting listen for investors of every level, this audiobook shows you exactly what to do and what not to do when your big idea is losing or winning - and demonstrates conclusively why the most important thing about investing is always the art of execution.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
©2015 Harriman House (P)2019 Harriman HouseI also appreciated that the author did not feel the need to pad the book out to be longer than it needs to be, as some trading books do.
I would add one small caveat, that the book is concerned with long equities only, held for the long term. This needs to be born in mind when Freeman-Shor suggests buying more of a falling stock, he is talking about a controlled amount of exposure to something priced below what is considered intrinsic value.
The narrator is fine. Although it was an odd choice to select an American voice for a book written by a British author, and where all the examples are British companies, and priced in sterling.
A superior trading book.

I have also bought the hard copy book as I think it will be useful to have as a ready desk top reminder of the issues, and because I think the charts and tables referred to will be interesting and helpful.
A clearly stated strategy for investing.
