Sample Book Insights:

#1 The market capitalization of publicly traded US stocks is roughly $35 trillion. It is a marketplace dominated by giant investment management firms such as BlackRock, with $7. 4 trillion in assets under management, and the Vanguard Group, with $5. 3 trillion.

#2 The Investment Company of America, which was founded by JBL in 1934, has averaged a 12. 0% annual net return since its inception. It has outperformed the SP 500 by 52 percent, and it has done even better in down years.

#3 The Lovelace family has built the Capital Group into a great company, but it is certainly not the only one that has relied on valuation-based processes to generate excess returns over long periods of time.

#4 The factors that define stock markets today were discovered by Professor Fama and his colleague Kenneth French, who introduced three common factors that were predictive of stock returns along with two for bonds.
