3.0 out of 5 stars
Not for the uninitiated!,
This review is from: The On-Line Investor: How to Find the Best Stocks Using Your Computer (Paperback)
This book hops from completely outdated on-line and computer information (that is better left to more easily updated information media) to in-depth and poorly detailed and ill-defined investment-speak within the same paragraph. The formulas for evaluating stocks are outstanding but well-noted that they are to be used for evaluation only! I would have a much easier time recommending Robert Sheard's The Unemotional Investor or anything from the Gardner brothers for beginners or the partially acclimated participant in investing. A good effort but left many aspects lacking in my mind.

This review is from: The On-Line Investor: How to Find the Best Stocks Using Your Computer (Paperback)
A useful guide for researching stocks and their corresponding companies, particularly small-capitalization companies. The Author argues rightfully that Individual Investors are better served by investing in small-cap companies because they are at an informational disadvantage when investing in large-cap companies. Most institutions with instant access to financial information from large brokerage houses, do not invest in small-caps because of SEC regulations and small outstanding shares availabe in small-caps . The book teaches fundamental stock valuation, valid for all caps, with clarity and care for the investor . The book teaches very well how to evaluate annual and/or quarterly reports of a company. It also advices on some of the financial resources available on-line, particularly those in AOL. The Author however, seems to avoid any information related to Microsoft. I think the reader will be well served by knowing that among the best award winning financial sites on the web today (if not the best) is MSN Money Central. I recommend the book along with my favorite book "Online Investing" by Jon Markman.I also recommend the Motley Fool site(www.fool.com).

This review is from: The On-Line Investor: How to Find the Best Stocks Using Your Computer (Paperback)
This book is horrible. If you know nothing about investing at all, maybe it could help you. But it implies that it is a book about online investing and provides you almost NO information pertaining to on-line investing. If you want help doing stock research do a search for stock sites. You can find them easily using any of the search engines. Many investment magazines will reference useful sites as well.This book provided absolutely nothing worthwhile regarding on-line investing and just rehashed a number of ideas much better presented by their original authors (like William O'Neill's book). If you want this book I will give it away free. Just send mail to magicease@aol.com. You pay the shipping and I will mail it to you. If I don't hear from anyone, I will throw it away, total waste of printing materials.
