Michael Batnick is director of research at Ritholtz Wealth Management and writes the blog The Irrelevant Investor, alongside co-hosting Animal Spirits. He came to finance without a conventional pedigree and is unusually direct about the errors he made getting there.
Big Mistakes is built on that instinct: rather than another study of what great investors got right, it catalogues what they got wrong, on the argument that the losses are the more instructive half and the half nobody publishes.
