Part 35 of 43 in How to Invest Your Money: Lessons from the World’s Greatest Investors, Adapted for the Indian Investor← Part 34Part 36 →
This chapter lists resources for learning about investing, including company filings, financial data, books, AI tools, and personal records. It helps Indian investors build better decision-making habits and review what they actually believed and did.
- Company annual reports, investor presentations, fund disclosures, and official circulars are primary sources.
- Screener.in provides convenient historical financial data.
- Business publications offer context but should be read with awareness of incentives and short-term focus.
- AI tools can summarize material, generate questions, and connect ideas across sources.
- Investment journals, annual reviews, and refined checklists create a valuable personal feedback loop.
Primary documents remain the highest-quality source: company annual reports and investor presentations available on BSE and NSE websites, mutual fund fact sheets and portfolio disclosures, and official SEBI and exchange circulars. Data platforms such as Screener.in provide convenient historical financials. Reputable business publications offer context, though they should be read with awareness of incentives and short-term focus.
Books that complement the principles in this volume include works on business history, behavioral psychology, and the letters of long-term investors. AI tools can help you navigate and summarize this material, generate questions, and connect ideas across sources. The objective is a personal latticework of models that improves decision-making over time, not the accumulation of facts for their own sake.
Finally, your own records—the investment journal, the annual reviews, the checklists you refine—are among the most valuable resources you will ever possess. They document what you actually believed and did, creating a feedback loop that no external publication can provide. Guard them and review them regularly.
