In The Little Book that Beats the Market― a New York Times bestseller with 300,000 copies in print ― Greenblatt explained how investors can outperform the popular market averages by simply and systematically applying a formula that seeks out good businesses when they are available at bargain prices. Now, with a new Introduction and Afterword for 2010, The Little Book that Still Beats the Market updates and expands upon the research findings from the original book. Included are data and analysis covering the recent financial crisis and model performance through the end of 2009. In a straightforward and accessible style, the book explores the basic principles of successful stock market investing and then reveals the author’s time-tested formula that makes buying above average companies at below average prices automatic. Though the formula has been extensively tested and is a breakthrough in the academic and professional world, Greenblatt explains it using 6 th grade math, plain language and humor. He shows how to use his method to beat both the market and professional managers by a wide margin. You’ll also learn why success eludes almost all individual and professional investors, and why the formula will continue to work even after everyone “knows” it. While the formula may be simple, understanding why the formula works is the true key to success for investors. The book will take readers on a step-by-step journey so that they can learn the principles of value investing in a way that will provide them with a long term strategy that they can understand and stick with through both good and bad periods for the stock market. As the Wall Street Journal stated about the original edition, “Mr. Greenblatt…says his goal was to provide advice that, while sophisticated, could be understood and followed by his five children, ages 6 to 15. They are in luck. His ‘Little Book’ is one of the best, clearest guides to value investing out there.” Review: BEST BOOK YET! - At 80, I have just discovered this book and enjoyed it more than any other book I've read (well, at least more than any book I REMEMBER reading). The book starts slow, as if to disguise how good it really is. By chapter 6 I was laughing out loud, at the statistical simplicity, shear elegance, and ironic effectiveness of this investment approach. I've a masters in general experimental psychology and have taught graduate level statistics, so I have some background from which to reasonably allege that this is a great book. Don't miss it. Don't let the negative reviews dissuade you. This is a sincere book written by an obvious expert who has the humility to acknowledge the well established fact that most investment advisors can't beat the market. He's come up with a simple method that works, tested it, and is sharing it. You probably won't do better than this. Yet of course you probably will think you can. Which is what makes this so much fun. Is it statistics, investing advice, psychology, or zen? Just read it - and if you do, don't miss the depth that's disguised with simplicity. Don't miss the irony of a guy who wrote this to explain why you probably can't do any better than this who then spends his career managing investment funds. And writing more books. If you don't think THAT is humor, rate yourself dull normal at best! Enjoy. If you don't enjoy this book, feel free to write a scathing review of this review! Review: Powerfully Simple - This book is great, I have been investing for a while and was always looking for growth stocks etc. but after reading this I saw the power of long term value investing. I am not giving up on some other strategies and the book doesn't demand anything like that it just presents a strong case in the clearest terms possible for value investing. I also liked how the book was very enjoyable to read and written in engaging humorous language. The book does not require any prior investing knowledge and actually expects you to not know anything and still be able to make excellent returns. There is however an element of belief required to implement his exact system but the fundamental ideas are very clearly explained. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #11,743 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #27 in Stock Market Investing (Books) #28 in Finance (Books) #38 in Introduction to Investing | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 5,123 Reviews | ## Images ![The Little Book That Still Beats the Market (Little Books.

I am not giving up on some other strategies and the book doesn't demand anything like that it just presents a strong case in the clearest terms possible for value investing. I also liked how the book was very enjoyable to read and written in engaging humorous language.

I've been a customer on Amazon (and customer of many retail stores) for many years now and purchased over 100's (probably thousands) of items, many in which I love! And have never ever felt the need to leave a review for. 2. If I think this book is so amazing why haven't I given it 5 stars, why not 4? Well for starters I'm a novice investor. By novice I mean 2 months worth of experience in the actual stock market lol not including 2 year's of investing in the acorns app (which after fees I walked out with an extra $50). While that might seem like a horrible investment please keep in mind I had a little over $700 in the account, so about a 7% return and acorns is a mobile app. Some how I knew I could do much better than that investing in the stock market myself. It was always something I've been interested in for year's now. However like most people, the idea of losing all my hard earned money has put a damper into that interest. But after seeing the possible returns I could make I told myself investing in it myself could be even more rewarding in the end. So I'm assuming like everyone who purchased this book, I wanted to start gaining knowledge about the stock market. So I purchased a few books. One being a investing 101 book written by a CPA. Then I went ahead and researched the greatest books on investing and came across Benjamin Graham's book "The intelligent investor" which I purchased. Bought myself a book to teach me on how to read a balance sheet and other financial statements so that I'd be able to learn how to read a companies health. With the thirst for more knowledge I kept picking up more books which brings me to this one "The little book that still beats the stock market" and i love it so much that after year's of never reviewing anything I felt the need to actually write a review. But the author of this book truly simplified everything I've read up until this part. That's why it's so important you understand that I'm still a novice investor, someone with only 2 months of experience in the stock market on my own. This author not only wrote this book as if he were talking to adults, but also as if he was talking to his children. So he literally wrote this in a way that most if not all people could truly understand. And with the knowledge I had gained from those other books I've read in the past (but was somewhat confused by because of the literature and lack of experience or knowledge in investing) this book truly clarified everything and put it in a wider perspective that I could actually grasp hitting on every key thing the other books had mentioned (even referencing the greatest book in investing by Benjamin Graham) already in a more simplified and fun way. I say fun because apparently this author is a comedian literally joking his way throughout the entire book keeping me entertained and never losing focus of actually learning what he's teaching. I'm really impressed by this book because as a beginner in investing I feel that this book along with everything I've learned with the others had given me the courage and understanding to know what to look for and how to look for them when it comes to stocks or index funds and even bonds. Now on to the reason why I gave it 4 stars and not 5. I consider myself a realist and throughout the entire book the author mentions this system in which he calls the "magic formula" which picks out the greatest stocks at under value Price's. I've yet to try his formula and therefore can't give it 5 stars, but I definitely will and believe that how he goes about making this formula puts Warren Buffett's and his mentor Benjamin Graham's formula in a more simplified way for everyone to understand even those who don't have a bachelor's degree. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Little Book That Still Beats the Market - The Little Book of Common Sense Investing: The Only Way to Guarantee Your Fair Share of Stock Market Returns (Little Books, Big Profits) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/1704922-the-little-book-that-still-beats-the-market-little-books](https://www.desertcart.us/products/1704922-the-little-book-that-still-beats-the-market-little-books) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-08*
