Review

“The book couldn’t be more timely.” (HedgeWorld.com, 30th March 2005)


Product Description

Investors who've primarily purchased equity securities in the past have been looking for more secure investment alternatives; namely, fixed income securities. This book demystifies the sometimes daunting fixed income market, through a user-friendly, sophisticated, yet not overly mathematical format. Investing in Fixed Income Securities covers a wide range of topics, including the different types of fixed income securities, their characteristics, the strategies necessary to manage a diversified portfolio, bond pricing concepts, and more, so you can make the most informed investment decisions possible.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Fixed Income book ever read, November 3, 2009
By Christopher Jacobs (Dayton, NJ United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book really helped me understand the ins and outs of fixed income securities. I never knew that prices dropped when yields rose and vice versa. Gary Strumeyer is a genius, and i'm sure handsome to boot. I wish there was a picture of him on the cover.
