The top-selling investment guide, The Little Book of Common Sense Investing, brings fresh insights, updates, and perspectives on smart market practices. This legendary work from mutual fund pioneer John C. Bogle unravels his secret to successful investing: low-cost index funds. Bogle explains the simplest and most efficient strategy for long-term wealth creation: purchase and retain, at a minimal cost, a mutual fund that mirrors a broad stock market index like the S&P 500.
Despite the stock market’s roller-coaster ride since the first publication of The Little Book of Common Sense in April 2007, Bogle’s investment principles have proven resilient and beneficial. The tenth-anniversary edition preserves the original long-term outlook while incorporating updated data and fresh information. Bogle also introduces two new chapters to guide investors on asset allocation and retirement investing.

Bogle demonstrates how to leverage index investing to meet your financial goals, drawing support from some of the world’s leading financial minds, including not only Warren Buffett but also Benjamin Graham, Paul Samuelson, Burton Malkiel, Yale’s David Swensen, and Cliff Asness of AQR.
