In “The Intelligent Investor” by Benjamin Graham, one of the key themes is the difference between investing and speculation. While investing involves a disciplined, long-term approach to selecting investments based on fundamental analysis and a value-oriented philosophy, speculation is focused on short-term gains and market timing. The importance of a long-term perspective is emphasized, with successful investors such as Warren Buffett and John Templeton achieving long-term success in the stock market through this approach. The risks of speculation are also discussed, including overconfidence, herd mentality, and market timing, which can lead to market bubbles and crashes resulting in significant losses. By understanding the principles of value investing and avoiding speculation, investors can achieve long-term success in the stock market.
