“Robin Speziale has interviewed Canada’s top money managers in depth. But instead of asking what stocks they like — ‘the flavour of the month’ — he talked to them about the processes they use to find investable securities.” — Ellen Roseman, personal finance expert and Toronto Star business columnist

“First-class interviews of successful investors sharing a diverse range of sound investment philosophies. Robin Speziale and his interlocutors remind us that Canada is rich with financial savvy and business acumen.” — Lawrence A. Cunningham, co-author and publisher of The Essays of Warren Buffett: Lessons for Corporate America

“A great addition to Canadian investing literature. Robin Speziale’s new book, Market Masters, spans the styles, stories, and strengths of 28 super investment characters. Investors — novice or experienced — will gain from it.” — Ken Fisher, 31-year Forbes portfolio strategy columnist, five-time New York Times bestselling author, founder/CEO of Fisher Investments

“Only a few investors become great, and they take different paths to get there. For an investor who wants to be successful, this book provides not just the recipe that these investors used to reach success, but also insight into their beliefs, blind spots, and investment philosophies. I recommend it to those who want to get past cookbook models and develop their own ways of thinking about markets and investing.” — Aswath Damodaran, professor of corporate finance and valuation at New York University’s Stern School of Business, and author of Damodaran on Valuation

“Robin Speziale’s new book, Market Masters, provides a wealth of insight into what it takes to succeed as an investor from a group of renowned Canadian investors. I think every investor would benefit from reading the book. Find out what group of ‘Master Keys’ fits your investment personality, and then, if you can, rigorously implement them in a systematic, unemotional way. Emotional buying and selling are a huge tax on investment returns. If you manage to conquer your emotions and use some of the plethora of ideas in this book, you’ll be well ahead of the majority of investors.” — James P. O’Shaughnessy, author of What Works on Wall Street
