Article Almanac 2024

Article Almanac 2024

A few years back, the IMA team started a new tradition. At the end of each year, we take all the essays I’ve written, sort them by theme, add some art, trim the edges, and voilà—a single PDF almanac emerges.

This year’s collection is all over the map: from topics I never imagined discussing—like antisemitism and racism on American campuses—to stock analysis, philosophy, and of course, classical music.

You can download the Almanac PDF here.

P.S. If you would like to download my previous almanacs, here is a link for 2021, here is a link for 2022 and here is a link for 2023.



Vitaliy Katsenelson, CFA

I am the CEO at IMA, an investment firm that designs all-terrain portfolios that survive the worst markets and thrive in good ones. (Get our company brochure in your inbox here, or simply visit our website).

In a brief moment of senility, Forbes magazine called me “the new Benjamin Graham.”

I’ve written two books on investing, which were published by John Wiley & Sons and have been translated into eight languages. (But you can learn the basics of my approach to investing by reading the 6 Commandments of Value Investing.

My first non-investing book, Soul in the Game, is available to order here. You can get 4 entirely new chapters (not found in the book) by forwarding your purchase receipt to bonus@soulinthegame.net.

And if you prefer listening, audio versions of my articles are published weekly at investor.fm.
