Bodie, Kane, and Marcus’ INVESTMENTS is the leading textbook for the graduate/MBA investments market. It is recognized as the best blend of practical and theoretical coverage, while maintaining an appropriate rigor and clear writing style. Its unifying theme is that security markets are nearly efficient, meaning that most securities are usually priced appropriately given their risk and return attributes. The text places greater emphasis on asset allocation, and offers a much broader and deeper treatment of futures, options, and other derivative security markets than most investment texts. more info

Rating:4 out of 5 stars
I have only read the first 4 chapters but it has a lot of information in it and I’m happy with the book so far.
A classic but needs more
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
This book remains a classic from my years at BU. However, later on i learned that you need to put the theory of it with real books from traders and hedge fund managers like Toby Crabel and Linda Raschke. They both are phenomenal personalities and their books are always out of print. You may be able still to find something on Ebay or Amazon. Good luck, this is a good book.
I had to read Investments for class but I am better because of it
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
Investments is a well written text book that has been updated frequently. It is refreshing to see examples in the book from 2007 that touch upon what is behind the failing of the lending institutions. It is easy to read and makes learning some rather complicated investment subjects easier. I would like to see more thorough examples on how to work through the various problems (either by calculator or by hand) that are assigned to the student. There is however links to the book’s website that allows the student to use some excel spreadsheets to work through the books assigned problems. Overall it is an informative book that delivers on making the reader more intelligent on the finance subject.
Excellent experience
