The Stock Detective Investor: Beat Online Hype and Unearth the Real Stock Market Winners

Rating:
Summary: Lots of valuable information for any investor!
Review: I think this book is great! I would have expected a book on stocks and investing to be rather dry but this book is very well written and quite readable. When I think of online investing, I think of buying and selling online but from this book I found there is an astounding amount of SEC and other information on companies out on the Internet these days enabling me to be able to research online as well. The authors have spelled out just what to look for and where to go for researching potential stock investments. The glossary in the back is handy (for me as a novice) as well as the appendix of investing related web site reviews. I have always been leery of stock investing, leaving it to my better half, but with the understanding and resources I am getting from this book, I have the confidence to venture carefully out... I would think ANYBODY who does any stock investing would DEFINITELY want to read this book!
