Maybe.

Somewhere in Burton Malkiel's A Random Walk Down Wall Street, he writes that Intelligent Investor author Benjamin Graham allowed, shortly before his death, that his method of fundamental analysis no longer works.

My cheapskate recommendation for legitimately getting a first rate investment book on your Kindle is The Elements of Investing (2010) by Charles Ellis and Burton Malkiel, currently offered as a free Pdf download by the non-profit Vanguard Group of investment companies. Malkiel is a longtime Vanguard director, and Ellis also has a history with Vanguard, so this is on the level. It was linked in a prior thread:

I saved the Pdf download on my PC hard drive, opened it, and then did a save as text. Then I emailed it to my free.kindle.com address. I found it a pleasure to read, although one or two charts were mis-formatted.
