Reviews

Praise for The Art of Execution... Fantastic...such a compelling read...There is a handful of investment books I wish someone had given me 30 years ago. This is one of them. -- Tom Stevenson, <i>Telegraph</i> This book isn't really about investing, instead it's more of an exploration of human behaviour under different types of stress, and this is what makes the book fascinating...This book is written to appeal to all kinds of investors, and is bound to appeal to both the author's peers and to the inexperienced investor. -- Owen Jones, Fidelity Personal Investing This might be the most important book on investments that a private investor can read. -- Mats Larsson, <i>InvestingByTheBooks</i>

Stock Market Maestros is about what really separates great investors from the rest—not intuition, but the ability to make high-quality decisions under massive uncertainty and to stay disciplined when it matters most. Every serious investor—established or aspiring—should read this. -- Annie Duke, author, <i>Thinking in Bets</i> and <i>Quit</i> Investing is often painted as a game of genius, but the truth is far more human—and far more humbling. Stock Market Maestros pulls back the curtain on a dozen of the world’s best investors and shows that their edge doesn’t come from being right all the time, but from how they respond when they’re wrong. It’s a masterclass in humility, discipline, and the art of turning mistakes into long-term advantage. For anyone who wants to grow not just as an investor but as a person and decision-maker, this book is a gift. -- Dr. Daniel Crosby, author, <i>The Soul of Wealth</i> Stock picking and portfolio management remain skills that very few have truly demonstrated, despite the countless millions who have tried. Stock Market Maestros does a masterful job transcending the anecdotes of great trades and precisely illuminating the techniques and behavioral prowess of elite investors. There is a science to effective decision-making and, for the careful reader, Lee and Clare’s impressive volume delivers robust instruction and inspiration for anyone striving to win in today’s complex global capital markets. -- Brian Portnoy, Founder of Shaping Wealth, and author, <i>The Geometry of Wealth</i> The best book on investing that I have ever read. Full of practical insights. None of the generalities found in other investment books. If you want to be a great investor, you need to read this book. -- Tom Berger, Deputy Assist­ant Sec­ret­ary of the US Treas­ury (1986-89) Praise for The Art of Execution...
