Part II of the Apprenticed Investor reading list for traders and investors is posted:  More Reading Ideas.  Tis time, we go over a lot more detailed works, covering Wall Street, Economics, Technicals, Short Selling, Fundamentals, and Everything Else.

Today's  suggested list is astonishingly long, but worthwhile:

Wall Street

Where Are the Customers' Yachts or A Good Hard Look at Wall Street

Michael  Lewis: Liar's Poker: Rising Through the Wreckage on Wall Street
Liar's Poker


Economics


Nicolas Darvas: How I Made 2,000,000 in the Stock Market
How I Made 2,000,000 in the Stock Market

Technical Reference Library:

 

Part I is here. If anyone has any additional book suggestions, please post them in the comments, or send them to me here.

I am surprised that you do not mention Empire of Debt : The Rise Of An Epic Financial Crisis by Bill Bonner and Addison Wiggin in the Economics section.

Barry,

Do you have any suggested readings on money/risk management?

Tommorow's Gold by Marc Faber gives an interesting perspective on business cycles.

Predators Ball by Connie Bruck. It's a great read, especially following a good read of Liar's Poker, which you mentioned.

Nice list, but let's be honest, Freakonomics isn't really about economics, it's about applying logic.

Charles Ellis 'Winning the losers game' for its definition of investment policy and why we each need one.

Many have pieces which are good.

Peter Bernstein 'Four Pillars of Investing' has a nice 360 degree view to it although he never manages to construct the ediface.

DailySpeculations.com had some of interest a few weeks ago.

"Ahead of the Curve: A Commonsense Guide to Forecasting Business and Market Cycles " by Joseph Ellis. I'm wondering how this compares to "Beating the Business Cycle"...
