In this book, Elias relates finance to the changing demographics of America and the rest of the world. His predictions about the future global economy are based on solid research and historical comparison. He focuses on Blue chip investing and gives Solid low-mid level risk advice.

He actually gives recommendations on specific companies. His diversified portfolios allow for investors to invest using his advice with some freedom. This is the best book on the market and investing I have ever read. A must read for newcomers and veterans.

This book discusses some of the major trends occurring in the world likely to affect stock values and gives some good investing advice.

Call David Elias an optimist. He expects the Dow Jones Industrial Average to hit 40,000 by the year 2016, and he stands by his prediction, even in the wake of the stock market down turn. His target doesn't sound so outlandish if you consider that, in order to hit 40,000, the Dow must rise by only 9% annually in the next 16 years. (Investors already have accustomed themselves to much grander annual returns.) However, Elias, an investment adviser, might strike some readers as a bit too cheery. He says interest rates and inflation will remain low for a decade, and he predicts that the developing world will goose profits by buying ever-increasing quantities of products from U.S. companies. Elias also argues that the much-feared backlash from Baby Boomers pulling out of the market after they retire will prove a myth. While Elias' outlook is relentlessly buoyant, we [...] recommend his information to investors and his book's ripe conversational fodder to futurists and analysts.

While the author from NV makes a point about the Harris Insight yearly underperformance, Mr. Coxe's performance has beaten the SP over the last three years by 680 basis points annualized.

This is a superior book, because of the style of thinking. Typical investors, like the individual from NV, or the herd, think in a conformed fashion and Mr. Coxe takes us out of the conformity and allows us independent thought.

He also does a great job explaining what external influences on the market are, the important roles they play( things like eurodollars, central banks, world economies, etc.), and what happens when markets go down or sideways for an extended period of time.

This book is explains the Big Picture of global markets and how an individual investor can use a broader understanding of markets to manage a personal investment portfolio. Donald Coxe does a great job of explaining how we got to where we are today. But the best thing is that he offers intelligent, witty insight into what investors should do next. At a time when most investing guides are offering bubblegum advice in a pop psychology wrapper, ths book is a breath of fresh air.

This book is a great resource for traders just starting out in currency markets. His focus on simplicity is critical for a new trader's education on how to make money. Proven currency-specific trading strategies from one of today's top currency analysts

Global currency markets combine unparalleled leverage, high short-term volatility, low execution costs, and significant long-term trends in an atmosphere of laissez-faire regulatory oversight to create the nearly perfect trading environment. Multinational corporations and multibillion-dollar hedge funds have long relied on these markets to efficiently hedge risk while taking advantage of its many rapid profit opportunities.

The best thing to be gleaned here is the methodology itself. The methodology is first a setup, then a trigger, then follow through. A setup is a seasonal correlation or momentum divergence, as examples. Then a trigger gets you in the trade, like a stochastics crossover. Follow through is simply money management.

This book provides excellent clarity in finding potential trades, determining an appropriate entry and subsequently managing the trade. Momentum divergence is the main indicator and the methodology is clearly detailed in terms of the setup, the trigger and the follow through. Questions are included at the end of the chapters. It is not difficult to use the methodology on any charting software. The methods can be extended to utilize other similar indicators. Reading this book is a low risk proposition with major potential rewards.

This is definitely one book that any new trader should read.

You will find some interesting and informative content in this book that can be useful in your educational path in Forex. But it is important to keep in mind that the book is written not by a trading entrepreneur but by a representative of one of the largest Forex brokers. To become a successful trader it is essential to recognize the vast difference in agenda between winning traders and brokers. The entire industry is driven by brokers and almost all material available on learning to trade is tied directly or indirectly to the broker industry whose agenda is to teach trading strategies that make the most money for THEM. Because the industry is unregulated, brokers are able to get away with many less than ethical practices. For instance, it is ironic that another reader mentions how Kathy covers the subject of the "carry trade" in detail.

This is a must see Video if you wish to understand the McClellan Oscillator and Summation Index. You will learn directly from Sherman McClellan and his son, Tom, on how to use this powerful indicator. You will also learn how you can apply this unique indicator to the futures market. To the best of our knowledge, this is the only video on this subject.

“Fundamental analysts say it's impossible to time the markets, and in a way they're right...It is impossible to time the market using fundamental factors. One has to look at the technical indicators to get the right insights. It can be done, and we can help.”
- Tom and Sherman McClellan

This book has a tremendous amount of valuable information for those of us who want to understand what investments are actually about. There is a lot more to it than the simple bromides peddled in the popular press and media. Yet, when you get some basic concepts down, they become easier to understand and evaluate. The popular press is misleading in its oversimplification and silly statements (like "no one is buying today").

There are valuable websites listed along the way for additional and related information. The authors and publisher also provide a website with materials including spreadsheets directly related to this book. The part of the site with online quizzes has a few typos and scoring errors, and that should be fixed, but the online materials are generally ok.

First, let it be said that there seems to be no decent book on Investment Theory out there, and that, in that sense, this one might be slightly better than others on the market...

Today's active investors enjoy spotting, tracking, and paying bottom dollar on undiscovered gems. In The Superstock Investor, stock-picking icon Charles LaLoggia provides the tools and insights sharp investors need to uncover ready-to-perform stocks -- and walks the reader step-by-step through the process of identifying and selecting these stocks before they break out to become true Superstocks.

In The Superstock Investor, LaLoggia tells you how he does it, and provides you with an entirely new way of pulling highly accurate stock leads from seemingly insignificant financial news. He explains how to see the telltale signs of a stock that is poised to shoot up--not "over the years" but practically overnight--including: * Dependable signals to identify the difficult-to-detect "Pure Play" stock * Top 9 takeover clues--and how they crop up time and time again * How charts can help you uncover and analyze undervalued companies that are about to become superstocks

Is it easy? Will it work on every stock? Of course not. But one thing is certain: Advice and guidelines in The Superstock Investor will dramatically increase your chances of finding undiscovered superstocks on the verge of breaking out--and climbing on board to consistently lock in market-beating returns.

Investors are tired of losing money to the bad calls and noncalls of Wall Street analysts, especially on the heels of Enron and other "surprise" stock meltdowns. Instead of giving up, When Buy Means Sell presents an innovative, market-tested system for knowing which recommendations to trust, sniffing out conflicts of interest, and making buy and sell decisions based on valuable, impartial information.

The first fresh approach to this age-old problem, When Buy Means Sell shows investors how to make sense of­­and profit from­­what Wall Street analysts are really saying, by revealing:
* Who the real prophets are­­from individual stars to leading firms
* How to read analyst calls like an insider
* Where to find the truly valuable information

Once you learn to approach analysts' calls with a healthy dose of skepticism, and follow what analysts are thinking versus what they are actually saying, there is measurable value to be found in the recommendations of the pros.

Is there any way of knowing what analysts are thinking--versus what they are saying?

The world is full of investment stories: "Buy companies trading below book value, and you can't lose." "Buy stocks that are already going up." "Buy stocks with low P/Es." "Stick with quality companies and you'll do fine." "Buy after bad news." "Buy after good news." "Follow the insiders." "Do whatever Warren Buffett's doing." Investors have heard them all--but which ones hold up to critical examination? Do any of them? In this book, one of the world's leading investment researchers identifies 14 widely touted "investment stories," and the psychological reasons that make each story so compelling. Then he runs the numbers-objectively. Has it worked over the long-term? Over the short-term? If it made sense once, does it still make sense? Are the promised benefits a statistical mirage? Can it contribute to any individual's investment strategy? Anyone who wants to make investment decisions more rationally, Aswath Damodaran's Investment Fables is utterly indispensable.

The truth about 13 of today's most widely touted investment strategies.
* 10 powerful lessons for every investor
* Overcoming the enduring myths about markets
* High dividend stocks: better and safer than bonds--or not?
* Cheap stocks: cheap for a reason?
* Should you invest in quality? Momentum? The next big thing? Or what?

The experience of Wall Street investment manager and analyst Michael McDonald offers a new perspective on how to navigate the turbulent ups and downs of the markets. His innovative approach to the stock market teaches investors how to use new investment strategies intended to replace the "buy and hold forever" strategies of yesterday. McDonald discusses what a "trading range" market is-a roller-coaster ride in which the market will neither gain nor lose much ground-and guides readers through this market with his proven investment strategies. This book provides an understandable way to make sense of the unpredictable stock market, taking into account more complex theories, including chaos and contrarian approaches. Along with his expert advice, McDonald presents four investing paradoxes that will help investors make smarter decisions now and predict where the market is heading, using his proven theories.

Wall Street research is often hesitant to focus on small companies. This creates a situation where many small high-quality companies go largely uncovered by Wall Street firms.

Let The Micro Cap Investor show you how to uncover today's most promising companies, and use the power of micro cap investing to dramatically improve your long-term investment performance.

Micro cap stocks are all but ignored by professional investors who can't risk losing their companies' clients--and their own careers--to the sudden volatility and price swings that are common to the micro cap market. But it is just that volatility, plus their proven record for outperforming large cap stocks over the long term, that makes micro caps perfect for independent investors looking for market-beating returns.

Adds to our understanding of contrarian behavior by taking his usual highly-disciplined quantitative approach to measuring investment behavior. This book will enable you to remain objective and effective no matter how intense the frenzy, excitement, or boredom becomes.The Triumph of Contrarian Investing weaves together history, behavioral theory, market lore and time-tested sentiment indicators to help the investor act rationally when the crowd is either paralyzed with fear or overcome by greed and optimism.

It took Ned Davis to sculpt a potent array of contrary opinion indicators which, taken together, are fully capable of reducing investment risks while significantly increasing investment returns and lays out the hard facts that will help you keep your head when others are losing theirs.

It is a practical guide to going against the herd on the Street without getting trampled.

It is one thing to say that the crowd is always wrong at extremes. It is quite another to provide convincing proof.

The Master Swing Trader explains how traders can use technical analysis, charting, and market sentiment to make trades that hold through price fluctuations and noise with wider stops.

Experienced day, position, and online traders will benefit immediately from: - The 7 Bells – unique tools to uncover promising short-term prospects - Techniques to profit from low-risk short sales - The 4 repeating cycles for perfectly timed trades

The Master Swing Trader will help you apply Pattern Cycles to your advantage, over and over again. By encompassing virtually all market action, and revealing how price moves in a highly predictable manner, its powerful tools will give you the edge you need to take other people’s money before they take yours.

In today’s lightning-fast markets, open information makes profit opportunities decidedly more difficult to spot and capitalize upon—with the investing herd becoming far more skilled at spotting inefficiencies and closing them up quickly. The Master Swing Trader will teach you to recognize these trade setups one step ahead of the crowd, dive in for solid profits, and close out your position before the majority has even caught on.

Playing the trading game takes audacious confidence, but winning takes more. It's about making chances instead of taking chances.

In Hot Trading Secrets, Amberger gives you a blueprint for making big money in any financial climate. He will teach you:

In addition to being a highly successful publisher of trading services, author J. Christoph Amberger is a master swordsman—two occupations that are by no means unrelated. Trading—as distinct from investing—isn't about the long-term accumulation of equity; it's about seizing the moment to maximize gains. In trading, as in swordplay, timing—knowing when to strike and when to withdraw, when to buy and when to sell—is the single most critical element; the difference between victory and defeat, profit and loss.

This is a good book which makes you rethink about your current trading system if you are still using RSI, moving averages or market profile. Enables traders and analysts to uncover hidden determinism in seemingly random market events and make accurate investment decisions with high probabilities for profit. Supplies practical, real-world tools for applying chaos to global commodity, futures and options markets.

Chaos theory now stands at the cutting edge of financial decision-making methods. The product of years of scientific investigation into unpredictable phenomena, it has the potential to offer traders entirely new perspectives on the movements of markets—and less risky routes to greater, more consistent profitability. Unlike other books on the subject, Trading Chaos takes chaos analysis out of the realm of the abstract and makes complex concepts easy to understand and use. It offers you the most practical, comprehensive guide available to applying chaos theory to the real world of trading and investing.

Designed for all traders—from beginner to experienced professional—Trading Chaos introduces you to the financial applications of chaos in five graduated stages, starting with a clear, nontechnical introduction (Level One: The Novice Trader) all the way to chart analysis, fractals, Elliott wave, and advanced nonlinear dynamics (Level Five: The Expert Trader).

There are many books covering Fibonacci from an artistic and historical point of view and almost as many suggesting that Fibonacci retracements and numbers can be successfully applied to financial market time series. What is missing is a book that addresses the common errors in using screen based Fibonacci (and Gann and other tools).

The book is a critical exploration of Fibonacci numbers, retracements, projections, timeframes and fanlines and their current usage within the financial markets by technical analysts. Although they can be extremely effective analytical tools when used appropriately, mistakes in usage can be extremely costly from a financial and credibility viewpoint. George MacLean takes a brief look at the history of Fibonacci and Gann, before providing a full account of their applications in financial markets, including fixed income, equity, foreign exchange, commodities and indexes. In particular, he draws attention to the overuse and misuse of easily applied computer packages available to professional and amateur traders.

It is great to see a new book dedicated to the understanding of such classical technical methods. In an age where computerized trading has become the norm rather than the exception, it is essential that people don't forget the power of these ancient techniques and their complete relevance to modern markets.
