You learned how to earn money. You learned how to save it. Nobody taught you how to deploy it.
Your money may already be invested. But could you say what is driving its return, what could wipe it out, or whether the price you paid has anything to do with what you own?
The Missing Map shows you what really sits behind an investment decision, and how to:
- tell real skill from luck, and spot the costs and incentives working against you
- know where you stand in the market cycle without trying to predict it
- judge what a business earns, what you own, and what it is worth
- hold on to good decisions when fear or the crowd says otherwise
You learned how to become an earner. This book is about becoming an owner of capital.
About the author
Saurav Mishra was born into humble circumstances and escaped them by earning an engineering degree from IIT. That education carried him from India to London and into capital-markets technology, where he has worked for two decades - the last nine as a director at an investment bank, leading architecture and reporting to the chief information officer. He developed the framework presented in this book over the last decade, and now uses it, through Dhruv, to deploy his own capital. The Missing Map is his first book.
