The 37 Best Books on Finance and Investing

"The value of every business–the value of a farm, an apartment house, or any other economic asset–is 100% sensitive to interest rates. That's because all you're doing when you're investing is transferring money to someone now in exchange for a stream of money which you expect to come back in the future. And the higher interest rates are, the less that present value will be. Interest rates are to asset prices sort of like gravity to the apple. When interest rates are low there is little gravitational pull on asset prices. Interest rates power everything in the economic universe." –Warren Buffett
