Reviews on Market Masters

“Robin Speziale has interviewed Canada’s top money managers in depth. But instead of asking what stocks they like – ‘the flavour of the month’ – he talked to them about the processes they use to find investable securities.”

Aswath Damodaran
“Only a few investors become great, and they take different paths to get there. For an investor who wants to be successful, this book provides not just the recipe that these investors used to get to success, but also insight into their beliefs, blind spots and investment philosophies. I recommend it to those who want to get past cookbook models and to develop their own ways of thinking about markets and investing.”

James P. O’Shaughnessy
“Robin Speziale’s new book “Market Masters: Interviews with Canada’s Top Investors” provides a wealth of insights in to what it takes to succeed as an investor from a group of renowned Canadian investors. I think every investor would benefit from reading the book. Find out what group of “Master Keys” fit your investment personality and then, if you can, rigorously implement them in a systematic, unemotional way. Emotional buying and selling are a huge tax on investment returns. If you manage to conquer your emotions and use some of the plethora of ideas from this book, you’ll be well ahead of the majority of investors.”
