书籍简介：

Recommended Reading by Warren Buffet in his March 2013 Letter to Shareholders How speculation has come to dominate investment–a hard-hitting look from the creator of the first index fund. Over the course of his sixty-year career in the mutual fund industry, Vanguard Group founder John C. Bogle has witnessed a massive shift in the culture of the financial sector. The prudent, value-adding culture of long-term investment has been crowded out by an aggressive, value-destroying culture of short-term speculation. Mr. Bogle has not been merely an eye-witness to these changes, but one of the financial sector's most active participants. In The Clash of the Cultures, he urges a return to the common sense principles of long-term investing. Provocative and refreshingly candid, this book discusses Mr. Bogle's views on the changing culture in the mutual fund industry, how speculation has invaded our national retirement system, the failure of our institutional money managers to effectively participate in corporate governance, and the need for a federal standard of fiduciary duty. Mr. Bogle recounts the history of the index mutual fund, how he created it, and how exchange-traded index funds have altered its original concept of long-term investing. He also presents a first-hand history of Wellington Fund, a real-world case study on the success of investment and the failure of speculation. The book concludes with ten simple rules that will help investors meet their financial goals. Here, he presents a common sense strategy that "may not be the best strategy ever devised. But the number of strategies that are worse is infinite." The Clash of the Cultures: Investment vs. Speculation completes the trilogy of best-selling books, beginning with Bogle on Investing: The First 50 Years (2001) and Don't Count on It! (2011)

@ Mr. L 妙语连珠。作者选择积极管理基金经理的方法可以用4P来概括：人，谁在管理；哲学，投资理念是什么；投资组合，他们如何将投资理念贯彻到持仓中去；表现，过去的表现不能预判未来，因此这个P排在最后。晨星给出了第五个P，便是价格（税收成本和管理成本）。不平静时最适合读Jack。 @ 盖世爱 看目录足矣 @ 目送飞鸿 看目录足矣 @ Mr. L 妙语连珠。作者选择积极管理基金经理的方法可以用4P来概括：人，谁在管理；哲学，投资理念是什么；投资组合，他们如何将投资理念贯彻到持仓中去；表现，过去的表现不能预判未来，因此这个P排在最后。晨星给出了第五个P，便是价格（税收成本和管理成本）。不平静时最适合读Jack。
