Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Basic investment tenets are covered in an easy, understandable way, but then the book also covers hedging, bond yields/prices, principal protected investing, and conservative options strategies for retail investors. Written in 1998, but the past 6 years tested the contents of the book well and it is enduring.

4.0 out of 5 stars Bear? What bear?, October 21, 1998

By A Customer

I bought this book midway through the market correction in August, when I was considering "getting out" of the market altogether and selling great stocks that I've owned. I used a collar strategy from the book and bought some zero coupon treasuries, plus bought a stock that fit the description of a "defensive". My portfolio is now worth 7% more than at the market high in July, even though as of today the Dow is still 1000+ points off that high. Best of all, I didn't touch any of my core holdings. Best 20 bucks I ever spent. It was also valuable to finally read about bonds in a way that I can understand. The book could use an index and a bit more detail on convertibles and derivatives that are discussed, but overall the best thing I've seen yet. Very friendly read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Insightful coverage of potentially intimidating topics, July 15, 1998

By	john.burt@attws.com - See all my reviews

As a novice to the stock market, I am grateful to have been introduced to this pearl of a book. Hudelson turns even the most complicated concepts into an easy and enjoyable read. It's obvious that he enjoys what he does; these people always seem to make the best teachers (and authors). I highly recommend this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars A clear, easy to read treatise on complex material, June 29, 1998

By	thm@cs.uidaho.edu T.H. Miller, PhD (Moscow, Idaho) - See all my reviews

Mr. Hudelson writes in a clear and concise manner with some personal humor. This book should be a primer for anyone who is about to invest in the market. It removes much of the mystery usually associated with how and in what to invest.
