Just finished reading several recommended stock investment books for 2025. I want to share my experience with friends who are interested in starting to invest.

Actually, choosing the right recommended stock books is very important because they will form the foundation of our investment. I believe that Thais who are just beginning to trade should start with books written by Thais first, because the examples will be Thai stocks, which are easier to understand.

The first book to read is "Growing Stocks for Sustainable Results" by Kavi Chukijkasem. This book is very easy to read, not complicated, and provides a good foundation in value investing. It’s suitable for beginners who don’t yet understand what P/E and P/BV are.

Once you understand the basics, try reading "The Intelligent Investor" by Benjamin Graham. This book is more in-depth, but the language is quite difficult. If you're interested in deep analysis, you’ll need to be patient and read carefully.

Another book I really like is "Breaking Through" by Dr. Nivesh Meevachirawirakar. This book discusses stock trading strategies during crises well, helping us understand what to do when the market crashes. The content is clear and not repetitive.

For those who like comprehensive analysis of various types of stocks, "One Up On Wall Street" by Peter Lynch is excellent. It categorizes stocks into six types (slow growth, strong growth, rapid growth, cyclical, recovery, assets). Lynch’s approach to finding undiscovered stocks is very interesting.

The last must-read book is "Buffettology" by Mary Buffett and David Clark. This book reveals Warren Buffett’s way of thinking, especially about valuation using DCF. If you want to go deep, be prepared to study hard.

However, reading these recommended stock books does not mean you can avoid all mistakes, but it helps build better defenses and understand risks more clearly.

If you don’t want to read at all, you can invest in mutual funds instead. But I recommend reading because, no matter which method you choose, eventually you need to understand investing.

A good way is to start with simple basics, try investing in the Thai stock index first, then gradually study and read various recommended stock books. After that, you can try investing in foreign stocks.

In summary, reading multiple recommended stock books will help you discover your own investment style. Some people prefer value investing, some prefer finding fast-growing stocks, and others like long-term investing. Everyone has their own way.

I hope friends find this sharing helpful, and I encourage you to start by reading these books to build a solid foundation before entering the real stock market.
