Understanding Peter Lynch’s Investment Philosophy
About Peter Lynch: Regarded as one of the greatest mutual fund managers, Lynch led Fidelity Investment’s Magellan Fund to an exceptional 29.2 percent average annual return from 1977 until his retirement in 1990. This performance nearly doubled the S&P 500’s 15.8 percent annual return during the same period. Lynch’s practical approach has made him one of the most cited figures in investment circles, known for memorable insights like, “Go for a business that any idiot can run — because sooner or later, any idiot probably is going to run it.” His popular book, One Up on Wall Street, simplifies investing concepts for the average investor.
