Peter DeFazio

One of the very nice things about investing in the stock market is that you learn about all different aspects of the economy. It's your window into a very large world.

Ron Chernow

That strategy of buy and hold, which is the sound and sensible one for the individual, can have very dangerous and perverse effects for the market as a whole.
Ron Chernow

Because of the love affair between the American public and the stock market, it is possible for entrepreneurs, technological visionaries and inventors of every sort to get financing.
Ron Chernow
