Mr. Faber is a co-founder and the Chief Investment Officer of Cambria Investment Management. Faber is the manager of Cambria’s ETFs, separate accounts and private investment funds. Mr. Faber has authored numerous white papers and five books. He is a frequent speaker and writer on investment strategies and has been featured in Barron’s, The New York Times, and The New Yorker. Mr. Faber graduated from the University of Virginia with a double major in Engineering Science and Biology.
Cambria Investment Management’s Meb Faber has always done excellent research. I read his first published book, the Ivy Portfolio, years ago and keep a copy in my office. Ivy did a lot to change my views on alternative investments, which I now use extensively in my practice.
Faber rarely tries to reinvent the wheel. In fact, a lot of his work centers around studying and replicating the work done by others. That was the focus of Ivy and his more recent Invest With the House: Hacking the Top Hedge Funds, his collaboration with AlphaClone, and his excellent blog The Idea Farm.
True to form, Faber has compiled recent work from some of the best investment writers in the business into eminently readable new book, The Best Investment Writing: Selected Writing From Leading Investors and Authors.
As Faber comments, investors today are completely saturated with information and choice; “too many market experts shouting too many conflicting opinions at us,” which leads to bad investment decisions.
Faber has done his readers a service by hacking through the noise and leaving them with a curated volume of very solid and mostly timeless investment advice. This is not a “how to” book that will teach you a new trading system, and it certainly won’t give you a top-ten list of stocks to buy. But it will make you a better investor and give you a more nuanced perspective.
Would give article content four or five stars, but book poorly edited. Only one article contains the original publishing date; while numerous articles make future expected return predictions. One can google the specific articles to get the original publishing date, but that interrupts the flow of ones reading. The chart on page 104 is unreadable, unless one holds it a few inches from his eye. You have four shades of gray with thin black lettering written over it.
Meb is exceptionally intelligent and a great communicator. I came across his work on his podcast initially and have been a fan ever since. This book is well worth the full price any day of the week. The quality of Meb's insights are second to none. Added to this is the fact that 100% of the proceeds support charity, which make this book easily the best deal on Amazon!
i haven't read yet the book, but i've read his previous books.. and i really liked them. very solid and niche insights. suitable for passionat retail investors as well and/or conservative buy-and-hold types, as myself :)
