Publisher's summary

Everybody knows that a strong dollar equals a strong economy, bonds are safer than stocks, stocks are more volatile now and stop-losses are a smart, money-saving tactic...right? These are just a few widely believed but potentially dangerous market myths. New York Times and Wall Street Journal best-selling author Ken Fisher dismantles in this wise, informative, wholly entertaining new book. As a long-term Forbes columnist and CEO of a global money management firm managing tens of billions for high-net-worth individuals and institutions, Ken knows a thing or two about what works and what's bunk when it comes to investing wisdom. Bringing together some of Ken's best myth debunking and market sleuthing of the past 25 years, in an easy-to-digest, bite-sized format, The Little Book of Market Myths exposes some of the most common - and deadly - myths investors swear by. And he demonstrates why subscribing to the rule-of-thumb approach to investing could prevent you from reaching your long-term investing goals. But this book is more than just a list of myths. One after another, Ken takes each commonly held belief or "surefire" strategy and explains why the myth persists, why it doesn't work and just how damaging it can be to your financial health. And each chapter is a primer on how you can apply the same "debunking" tactics yourself, now and for the rest of your investing time horizon. Whether you're a novice investor or a longtime veteran, this book arms you with priceless insights to help you identify major errors you may be committing and help you see the world clearer - so you can improve your investing results.

Insightful and data oriented advice

This book covers a wide variety of commonly misunderstood concepts and interdependencies. Author supports most of his arguments with data/facts. I always gravitate to such nuggets of advice that stand the test of bull as well as bear markets and look at the big picture of it.
