The investment trustās handbook 2023. New out and FREE to get on your kindle via Amazon. As someone who invests in ITās I read this each year. Interesting to hear the thoughts of managers in different sectors, although with it being free Iām sure there is an element of it being a sales pitch as well.
I am currently reading this book - The Psychology of Money. There are many things that people might have a perception about, but this book provides facts that help sharpen it or even reflect on new facts. I highly recommend it. Another one that I read and enjoyed a lot was the story of Nike. Despite not being related to investments, it shows us how one of the most iconic companies in the market emerged, as well as the obstacles its founders faced. Excellent.

I would list everything on here but itās probably best you read itās topics, itās quite a big book as well at just over 23 hours long with another book that took quite some time the intelligent investor at 17 hours, most other books range 8 hours to 12 hours so itās a good buy. Hereās a summery below.
"The ban was classified as a security measure, accompanied by a brief explanation. Prison officials were concerned that the books, Jensen said, could show inmates Ā«how to control people, how to get people to do exactly what you want them to do.Ā» Knowledge is power ā¢ Law 15: Totally destroy your enemy. "
Thatās the author speaking about his book etc. I think people can take what they want from it, myself I donāt get hurt by whatās said in the book at all if anything it opened my eyes on how to deal with a set few at work and in general. The book also showed me what I was doing to others without actully knowing I was doing it. I remember laughing to myself at work going shit thatās what I do lol.

Not sure if itās been mentioned above, but if not and for anyone interested in commodity trading and in particular the history of Glencore, try āThe world for saleā.
Fascinating read regarding the massive power that commodity traders once had.
Just finished listening to āThe Trading Gameā (Gary Stevenson) and thoroughly enjoyed it.
Its a biography of a working class lad who becomes a star trader in the 2000ās.
No trading tips, just an interesting insight of the life of being a trader.
If you are the main account holder on Spotify, the audiobook is free to listen to.

Just finished listening to it myself. Maybe take some of it with a pinch of salt, but entertaining nonetheless.
