[World Book Day] What’s One Book You’d Recommend to Everyone?
April 23 is World Book Day. We spend so much time watching the market, reading earnings, and chasing headlines — but sometimes, it’s nice to slow down and read something that stays with you a little longer.
So here’s today’s question:
What’s one book you’ve read recently that you’d recommend to others?
It can be about investing, business, psychology, biographies, or even fiction — any book that gave you a new idea, a fresh perspective, or just a really good reading experience.

Thiel's track record with Palantir
Peter Thiel co-founded Palantir with Stephen Cohen, Joe Lonsdale, Alex Karp, and Nathan Gettings in 2003. Thiel invested approximately $30 million (from his own pockets and his Founders Capital venture capital fund) in the company.
Before Palantir went public via a direct listing in 2020, Thiel owned 7%-10% of its private shares. He sold millions of shares after Palantir's market debut, but he still holds a 3% stake and remains the company's chairman. That stake is worth more than $20 billion today.
Thiel's think Palantir still has more long-term growth potential.
