Books by Peter Lynch

Peter Lynch managed the Fidelity Magellan Fund from 1977 to 1990, growing it from $18 million to $14 billion in assets while averaging annual returns of approximately 29 percent. He retired at 46 and has since devoted much of his time to philanthropy, particularly in education in the Boston area. In addition to Beating the Street, Lynch wrote One Up On Wall Street and Learn to Earn. He remains associated with Fidelity as a vice chairman and continues to appear occasionally in public discussions of investing. Lynch is credited with popularizing the "invest in what you know" approach and bringing institutional-grade stock analysis to a general audience.
