IN SEARCH OF RETURNS (2nd Edition) Making Sense of Financial Markets by John Looby • Paperback: €15 • https://lnkd.in/eBd5nS9k Financial markets are fascinating but successful investing is not easy. Investments span an asset risk spectrum from risk-free at one extreme to their riskier counterparts at the other, with the returns on offer reflecting the potential gain or loss from bearing risk. Current negative real long-term interest rates encourage the hunt for returns better than those available to depositors. While the future looms as unknowable as ever, IN SEARCH OF RETURNS will help you to: • Evaluate the relationship between ‘expected’ risk and returns in financial decision-making; • Understand different investment asset classes and investment strategies; • Appreciate the influence of cognitive biases in asset pricing and investment behaviour.
