Book Description

Lightbulb Press January 1, 2000
Finally, a dictionary that unravels the insider jargon of investing and trading in words--and pictures--we can all understand. In place of cryptic definitions that are often more intimidating than the words themselves, the "Dictionary of Financial Terms provides truly helpful explanations of over 700 of the most commonly used, and most commonly misunderstood financial terms, using examples, illustrations, and complementary graphics to make the words meaningful as well as memorable.

Filled with helpful cross references that link related terms and concepts, the dictionary also lists the most important terms to know for online trading, investing in stocks and mutual funds, and analyzing investment performance. Special sections also clarify the differences between frequently confused terms: what is the difference between NASD, Nasdaq and OTC, anyway?

With dramatic changes in the financial markets occurring each day, it's getting more and more difficult to read the news, let alone the business sections of daily papers, without a handy guide to financial terms by your side.

4.0 out of 5 stars Dictionary of Financial Terms, June 2, 2000
This review is from: Dictionary of Financial Terms (Lightbulb Press) (Paperback)
The DFT book was very helpful. I am just getting started as a Manager in the financial field and needed some help with the terminology and correct phrasing. This book was quick, easy to read and I was able to locate items I needed similar to the Strunk & White Book. I take this book with me everywhere.

This review is from: Dictionary of Financial Terms (Lightbulb Press) (Paperback)
what kind of dictionary is this? This must have taken them a week to create. I ended up buying another financial dictionary that I'm much happier with.
