3.0 out of 5 stars Clarify the contents of the "Sector Investing" book by Stovall, February 6, 2009

This review is from: Standard & Poor's Guide to Sector Investing 1995 (Paperback)

The investment process applied in this book is useful. However, since the book is copyrighted in 1995, the data in the book is obsolete.

Since the book was published, a number of free websites on the Internet enable an investor to utilize the investment process applied in this book.

I visited the Standard's and Poor website expecting that the site would be set up -- using the investment process applied in their book. I did not find that to be the case.

The book might be useful to a person designing a website on investing.
