This text discusses new stock issues, also called initial public offerings (IPOs), and small company stocks. This guidance should help seasoned investors as well as newcomers who are seeking higher returns. It addresses issues such as: how much money to allocate; how to limit risk when buying risky stocks; how to maximize profits when buying new issues; getting in on the new offerings reserved for Wall Street "insiders"; whether or not to buy if shut out of a deal; analyzing the prospectus; knowing the right price; what to expect from a broker; and timing the decision to buy or sell. For less adventurous investors, it also shows how to use mutual funds for IPO to participate in this risky, but rewarding style of investing.

3.0 out of 5 stars
A Solid Effort!,
This review is from: Fast Stocks/Fast Money: How to Make Money Investing in New Issues and Small Company Stocks (Hardcover)
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.

This review is from: Fast Stocks/Fast Money: How to Make Money Investing in New Issues and Small Company Stocks (Hardcover)
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...
