Fast Stocks/Fast Money: How to Make Money Investing in New Issues and Small Company Stocks

Rating:
Summary: A Solid Effort!
Review: If you want to know how to get into the latest hot IPO, you probably can't. But don't let that dissuade you from reading Robert Natale's book, in which the Bear Stearns money manager argues that the quickest way to get rich is by investing in small cap stocks. Despite his enthusiasm, Natale is no wide-eyed cheerleader for the small cap market. He acknowledges that these are risky investments that are susceptible to devastating downturns and wealth-sapping manipulation. It's not the sort of argument one would expect from a small-cap guru, but Natale makes a convincing case. He also provides a solid primer for beginner investors, as well as guidelines and mathematic formulas that will help any individual investor evaluate small stock and IPO investments. We at getAbstract recommend this book to anyone interested in boosting the returns on a personal portfolio.

Summary: Only for beginners
Review: The book provides the basic "terms & rules" of stock trading and tries to go deeper in trading small companies stock and IPO's as well as some basic indicators supposed to guide investing decisions. Well, maybe the timing is not right but I don't find something new or interesting. Perhaps it's good for the beginner...
