Taming The Lion: 100 Secret Strategies For Investing [Paperback]

BeforeDragons Den, Richard Farleigh built a career in global finance running trading desks and developing the strategies that underpin this book.

Taming the Lionhas been widely praised by leading financial publications including theFinancial Times,The Telegraph,The Independent, andInvestors Chronicle.

Described byThe Telegraphas a tour de force in common sense investing, it focuses on profiting from big market themes, an approach called the most effective and least stressful route to investment success.

From the care system to building his own fortune, Farleigh explains the thinking behind that journey. AsMoney Magazineobserved, anyone who retires at 34 and moves to Monte Carlo clearly made some smart decisions.

First published over 20 years ago,Taming the Lionhas stood the test of time. Its principles remain as relevant today as ever.

Rather than theory, the book sets out 100 clear, experience-based strategies developed over decades of investing. These cover how markets really behave, when to take risk, when to avoid it, and how to identify genuine opportunities across different asset classes.

Some of the ideas challenge conventional thinking:

-- Markets often under-react rather than overreact
-- Big, obvious themes can be the most profitable
-- Consensus views are often safer than contrarian positions
-- Timing matters more than staying permanently invested?
