Who is Robert Hagstrom?

Investment writing divides fairly neatly between work about markets and work about people, and Robert Hagstrom’s contribution to our catalogue lands firmly in the second camp. The Warren Buffett Way takes one individual’s approach to investing and sets out to work out what makes it repeatable.

That is a harder task than it sounds. Writing about a famous investor invites either hagiography or a checklist, and the useful version is the one that explains the reasoning rather than the results. Our edition dates back to the early 2000s, which is a long life on a shelf where fashions turn over quickly.

The audience is the patient investor rather than the trader: someone interested in owning businesses, not in renting share prices.

Robert Hagstrom in audiobooks

Stephen Hoye reads our edition across eight hours and thirty-eight minutes, at a measured pace suited to material you may well want to rewind rather than race through.

Ratings on this listing are still too thin to carry much weight, so take the score with the caution it deserves and let the opening chapters make the case instead. It makes a natural first listen for anyone assembling a grounding in value investing, and it pairs neatly with the wider money and finance section.
