OK but...,
By A Customer
This review is from: Select Winning Stocks Using Financial Statements (Paperback)
One of the worthwhile things about this book, which serves as a pretty decent introduction to financial statements, is its treatment of the DIFFERENT types of statements for retailers/manufacturers, banks and utilities. I'm not aware of any other book for beginners which offers guidance towards the distinction between the three. But since the author took the trouble to detail these, one wonders why he didn't also discuss insurance companies as a separate entity, especially since utilities have offered less capital appreciation potential to investors in recent years.

5.0 out of 5 stars
For every serious individual investor!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Select Winning Stocks Using Financial Statements (Paperback)
This book is written for the lay investor, not for the professional. It is easy to read and understand, and offers great assistance to the investor who uses financial statements in evaluating and comparing companies. The forms presented help organize the important data in an easy-to-follow manner. This is a worthwhile book for every serious individual investor.
