A “Textbook of Individual Stocks” on the essentials of stock investment by a popular lecturer at Kyoto University is now available! Discover Twenty-One Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, Representative Director and President Executive Officer: Naomi Taniguchi) announced on August 23, 2024, “A popular lecturer from Kyoto University will teach.
“Textbook for Individual Stocks” (written by Hidetaka Kawakita) has been published.
This book is an essential theory of stock investment written by the author, who worked as a director in Nippon Life Insurance’s asset management department, analyzed and researched securities investment at Kyoto University, and has been involved in the stock market for 60 years.
This book is designed to help those inexperienced and beginners in investing in “individual stocks” to both “increase assets and understand the economy,” which can only be conveyed by an author who knows both practical and theoretical knowledge.
■The definitive edition explaining the essential theory of stock investment
Mr. Kawakita explains, “The essence of stock investment is to enjoy the benefits of companies and economic growth by holding stocks for a long time without buying or selling as much as possible.”
Long-term holding investments bring profits to individual investors by increasing corporate profits as the economy grows, returning those profits to investors as dividends, and further raising stock prices. In this way, he emphasizes that it is a positive-sum game in which all three parties benefit: individuals, companies, and the Japanese economy.
On the other hand, short-term buying and selling type investments are nothing more than a zero-sum game in which “someone’s buy” becomes “someone’s sell,” and the profits and losses of investors as a whole are offset.
Understanding this difference is the first step to learning about “individual stock” investing.
■Recommended for the following people
This book is recommended for the following people:
・People who are not very knowledgeable about stock investment ・People who don’t have time or don’t want to spend too much time investing ・People who want to learn about economics and business through investment ・People who want to support great companies through investment ・People who think that “investment trusts support even mediocre companies”
Author Kawakita says, “Stock investment (individual stocks) is not inherently scary.”
Of course, it is possible to lose money on individual stocks, but if you do not have a strange desire to make money, you will not be seriously injured, and in the long term, there is a high possibility that you will make a profit.
Many people who are investing in iDeCo or new NISA investment trusts are considering investing in individual stocks as the next step. This book is aimed at such people, and contains detailed and easy-to-understand explanations of everything from the basics of stock investment to the benefits of long-term holdings, with plenty of diagrams and graphs.
■A wealth of graphs and diagrams, easy to understand at a glance! This book uses a wealth of graphs and diagrams to explain in an easy-to-understand manner the benefits of long-term holding of individual stocks and the basics of investment.

When Mr. Kawakita gave lectures at Kyoto University, he often said the following to his students.
“True stock investment (stock ownership) is a type of side job. Enjoy investing in stocks while doing your favorite job or enjoying your hobbies.
If possible, the fruit of growth should be shared, whether it be one, two, or even half.
Since it’s a side job, I don’t want to spend a lot of time on stocks. The ideal lifestyle that I always introduce to my students is, “While watching the sunset at a summer resort and drinking a glass of wine, I suddenly find myself opening my computer and checking the day’s stock prices and related news.” ” is there. Just checking, 10 minutes should be enough. After that, you can enjoy your time at the resort again.
In other words, in an ideal landscape and time, there is no need to buy or sell stocks. It is sufficient to confirm that no abnormality has occurred.
Once you are sure that the world is peaceful and nothing has changed, you close your computer and return to the world of the resort and the flow of time.
All that remains is for some talented entrepreneurs somewhere in the world to inflate the fruits of stock prices. ”
This book is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the essence of stock investment and increase their assets from a long-term perspective.
