  • you should take anything on motley fool with a pinch of salt. their writers are basically paid on volume of articles now and come up with some real crap; often contradicting their old views!

    i was bought the below ~10 yrs ago by my grandfather who has done very well for himself through investing. it is a very good book and teaches you all the fundamentals - written by an esteemed FT author

    day to day i would also highly recommend the investor's chronicle podcast, as well as FT's money show podcast. while the IC's companies and markets show is currently suspended, they still get a lot of interesting people on (read; fund managers). they had the polar capital technology fund manager on earlier this year - seriously smart guy who really knows his shit... although that whole sector has gone bonkers this year, the polar capital fund has outperformed tech sector ETFs

  • Thanks for the recommendation.

    Yeah I have noticed you get a MF article one week saying "buy LFGSS now they are a sure fire hit", then the opposite the next week saying it's too risky.

  • 100% - they are full of shit. may pick out some interesting companies/views sometimes but you really need to look at some other sources too
