4.0 out of 5 stars
Fast-reading primer on common stocks,
By A Customer
This review is from: Keys to Investing in Common Stocks (Barron's Business Keys) (Paperback)
This primer on common stocks hits on all the key terms to know about when investing. Each key/chapter explains a particular topic such as "Fundamental Analysis", "Technical Analysis", "EPS", etc. The writing is clear and concise, though the plugs for Barron's get a little old. Overall, a great, inexpensive book to get you up-to-speed on investing in common stocks
