The Economics of the Stock Market
Andrew Smithers · 2023
🎙 Narrated by Dennis Kleinman
85/100
👍 Worth It
This is the real deal in the pile — a credentialed economist with 60-plus years in markets, published by Oxford University Press, and actually reviewed by the CFA Institute and ICAEW rather than just sitting on a retailer page. It's dense and built for professionals, not casual listeners looking for a quick 'how to invest' guide, so know what you're signing up for. Narration by Dennis Kleinman has no specific quality feedback, but the substance here is genuinely strong.
