Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
These two aids for inexperienced investors share the premise that common stocks provide the best opportunity for individuals to create wealth. Littauer (How To Buy Mutual Funds the Smart Way, Dearborn, 1992) provides a basic explanation of stock market terms, surveys industry groups, and highlights stocks he considers the best opportunity for the average investor. Though all those stocks are worthwhile, the information on them is somewhat dated, e.g., some of the stocks are from companies that have been taken over. Littauer favors making systematic purchases and reinvesting dividends, and he provides a list of companies offering dividend reinvestment plans. Slatter, a stock broker for 30 years, gives a less complete introduction to the investment vocabulary. He describes several systematic ways of investing that culminate in his own formula for picking stocks-one that, he claims, routinely beats the market. This book is likely to appeal to beginners who are comfortable with a calculator. Both titles are recommended for business collections.

For the novice and experienced investor.,

This review is from: How to Buy Stocks the Smart Way (Paperback)
How to Buy Stocks the Smart Way provides welcome information to investors who want to make smarter and more profitable decisions about their stock investments. The book reveals insider secrets behind savvy stock selection. I found very helpful tips on how to reduce risk, how to get the most from my investment dollars, and how to find out which stocks are attracting attention and are the best buys now. Most of us invest to provide ourselves with a financially secure future. This book provided me with commonsense principles of intelligent investing plus how to achieve a successful long-term investment program.
