What They're Saying

Critics Review

“The Humble Investor is a refreshing and much-needed departure from most investing books. Serious investors will appreciate its provocative take on the industry’s challenges and its empirically-grounded approach to the solutions. An invaluable resource for how to think as well as how to invest.” – Michael J. Mauboussin, Head of Consilient Research at Counterpoint Global, Morgan Stanley Investment Management

“This book poses a danger to conventional investment wisdom. It’s provocative, even heretical.” – Patrick O’Shaughnessy, Chairman Emeritus, O’Shaughnessy Asset Management

“In an ever-changing (and chasing) investing world, it’s a rarity to find a non-conformist and independent investing mind like Dan Rasmussen’s. He thinks for himself and built his world-class process all on his own. The Humble Investor challenges the received wisdoms of the establishment and educates you on a better way.” – Keith R. McCullough, Chief Executive Officer, Hedgeye Risk Management
