No Bull Investing

Rating:
Summary: Good rules of thumb, thin on real investing info
Review: A small book that is easy to read and is an okay starting place for beginners despite the fact that Bernstein conveniently makes a lot of recommendations for his own books. There's a little of everything, money management, what you should expect to make during your first years as an investor, a little technical analysis, some nice rules of thumb, etc. But this is also the book's weakness--it spreads itself thin covering a lot of topics in this short introductory book. For example, only elementary momentum analysis is explained and a beginning investor should have more information than that to start investing. There are better "starter" books and readers of No Bull Investing should be aware that they can pick up a lot of simple tips and rules from Bernstein, but should continue their education before diving into investing.

Review: This book put so many things into the proper perspective for me. I now know how to get started and how to improve my odds of success even though I'm a beginner. The General Investment Model was a real eye opener! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Review: Yet again, Jake Bernstein has given us laymen a book we can understand. In these uncertain times, it is hard to know when to invest and who to trust. In my opinion, and indeed my experience, Bernstein has made the world of investing accessible and profitable time and time again. This book is an investment you will not regret!
