5.0 out of 5 stars An Excellent Introduction to Modeling Financial Markets, August 6, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Market Timing Models: Constructing, Implementing & Optimizing a Market Timing Based Investment Strategy (Hardcover)
This book explained in plain English how to model financial markets using common forecasting tools. I was especially interested in the thorough review of how data can be used and misused to create a forecast. This is important because it is directly related to the reliability of a forecast, which was also discussed in depth. There also an easy-to-understand explanation of modern portfolio theory, as well as a review of the approaches of three other Wall Street practioners. Altogether an excellent book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Review of Models and Forecasting Financial Markets, January 10, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Market Timing Models: Constructing, Implementing & Optimizing a Market Timing Based Investment Strategy (Hardcover)
I found this to be an excellent book on forecasting financial markets. There is a very readable explanation about how to use forecasts for asset allocation and how some famous Wall Street analysts do their forecasting. I enjoyed this book and found it well written. This book is probably best for intermediate to expert financial people, however.
