The Stock Picker is an engaging read for those interested in the investment industry and wider world nostalgia. Richard Penny, manager of the L&G UK Special Situations Trust and L&G UK Alpha Trust
My current favourite out of the books we received in the office is Paul Mumford's The Stock Picker, a history of the last 30 years from the perspective of the fund he has run and the companies he has invested in. Mumford, who is reckoned to be the longest serving fund manager on the same fund, is a classic stockpicker and if you spend more than half an hour with him you will see why. He constantly gets calls from brokers and has an incredible knowledge of the companies he has or hasn't invested in. His ‘process' doesn't neatly fit into the ‘tick-box' analysis system many work under now but this book gives you a brilliant insight into the way a real, old school, but still very active, active investor works. Lawrence Gosling, founding edtor Investweek Week and editorial director Professional Adviser
"It’s an honest and enjoyable read." Jeremy Prescott, freelance journalist
"A wonderfully eccentric and engaging insight into the mind of an extremely accomplished investor." MoneyWeek
"Paul Mumford's wealth of experience and accumulated knowledge as a stock picker over many years of turmoil is worth its weight in gold!" David Buik MBE, Panmure Gordon & Co
"Paul Mumford is a wise and engaging guide taking you through his five decades in the City: booms, bear markets, rogues, successes and fads are all here. So too is a rich store of ideas for those who are serious about successful long-term investing." Mark Colegate, Asset TV
"As his clients will attest, Paul Mumford is no ordinary investor and, as I know from trying to maintain a semblance of control chairing conferences, he is no ordinary speaker. So it should come as no surprise that, with this entertaining and insightful blend of personal and professional experience, he has produced no ordinary investment book." Julian Marr, editor, Professional Adviser
"A fascinating life of kaleidoscopic colour and a wonderful anthropological study that confirms how those formative years shape the way we are as adults." Colin Morrison, Investment Performance Consultant
