Download or read book Investing in the Technologies of Tomorrow written by Gregory Georgiou and published by Irwin Professional Publishing. This book was released on 1994 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Virtual Reality, genetic engineering, high definition television. What were once science fiction are now today's reality, and could well be tomorrow's greatest investment opportunities." "Investing in the Technologies of Tomorrow spotlights the technologies which will change the way we live in the 21st century and identifies the companies which will bring these technologies to fruition. This fascinating book discusses the money making potential for each technology and provides investors with the tools to select the companies destined to become the Apple Computers and Microsofts of the 21st century." "According to the U.S. government, the domestic market for emerging technologies will hit $350 billion in annual sales by the end of the century while the world market will approach $1 TRILLION. Indeed, emerging technologies are important because they could very well determine who wins and who loses the battle for global economic dominance in the 21st century." "For investors who pick the next technological winners, the rewards will be enormous. Just look at the huge stock price gains in many technology companies in recent years: Genentech up 361% in 16 months; Digital Equipment up 917% in 37 months and Wang Labs up 1543% in 34 months. Clearly high tech means high profits." "But investing in the Technologies of Tomorrow is far more than an investment book. It is a compelling vision of how technology will change our lives in the 21st century. Consider some of the possibilities: floating trains that move as fast as airplanes, tiny robots that are injected in patients to perform surgeries, virtual reality machines that can simulate any human experience ranging from space travel to sex." "With each technology this book explains the challenges to achieve widespread commercialization. Most importantly, author Gregory Georgiou, an award winning financial journalist, pinpoints the companies investors should watch." "Right now there are dozens of small publicly held companies working on breakthrough technologies. Although not every company will hit it big, undoubtedly there will be some huge successes. Somewhere out there hides the next AT&T or Microsoft." "Technology is the greatest force for change in our lives. Whether you are an investor looking for opportunities or whether you simply want to understand the mysteries of the 21st century, Investing in the Technologies of Tomorrow will surpass your expectations." "It is superbly written glimpse into the future."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A unique and timely new wealth-building strategy from a legendary investment guru In his national bestsellers How to Retire Rich and What Works on Wall Street, portfolio manager extraordinaire James P. O’Shaughnessy offered investors practical advice based on rigorous quantitative analysis—advice that has consistently beaten the market. But in a recent analysis of market data, O’Shaughnessy uncovered some astonishing trends not discussed in his previous books. The Markets of Tomorrow explains O’Shaughnessy’s new research and tells ordinary investors what they must do now to revamp their portfolios. According to O’Shaughnessy, the year 2000 marked the end of a twenty-year cycle that was dominated by the stocks of larger, fastergrowing companies like those in the S&P 500. In the new cycle, the stocks of small and midsize companies are the ones that will outperform the market, along with large company value stocks and intermediate term bonds. O’Shaughnessy describes the number crunching behind his analysis and then shows individual investors exactly how to select the right mix of investments and pick top-performing small and midcap stocks. The Markets of Tomorrow is a loud and clear call to action for every investor who doesn’t want to be left behind.

Download or read book Invested written by Charles Schwab and published by Currency. This book was released on 2019-10-08 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “To say Charles Schwab is an entrepreneur is actually an understatement. He really is a revolutionary.”—Phil Knight, co-founder of Nike, author of Shoe Dog The founder of The Charles Schwab Corporation recounts his ups and downs as he made stock investing, once the expensive and clubby reserve of the few, accessible to ordinary Americans. In this deeply personal memoir, Schwab describes his passion to have Main Street participate in the growing economy as investors and owners, not only earners. Schwab opens up about his dyslexia and how he worked around and ultimately embraced it, and about the challenges he faced while starting his fledgling company in the 1970s. A year into his grand experiment in discounted stock trading, living in a small apartment in Sausalito with his wife, Helen, and new baby, he carried a six-figure debt and a pocketful of personal loans. As it turned out, customers flocked to Schwab, leaving his small team scrambling with scarce resources and no road map to manage the company’s growth. He recounts the company’s game-changing sale to Bank of America—and how, in the end, the merger almost doomed his organization. We learn about the clever and timely leveraged buyout he crafted to regain independence; the crushing stock market collapse of 1987, just weeks after the company had gone public; the dot-com meltdown of 2000 and its reverberating aftermath of economic stagnation, layoffs, and the company’s eventual reinvention; and how the company’s focus on managing risk protected it and its clients during the financial crisis in 2008, propelling its growth. A remarkable story of a company succeeding by challenging norms and conventions through decades of change, Invested also offers unique insights and lifelong principles for readers—the values that Schwab has lived and worked by that have made him one of the most successful entrepreneurs of our time. Today, his eponymous company is one of the leading financial services firms in the world. Advance praise for Invested “I’ve admired Chuck Schwab for a long time. When you read this book, you’ll understand why.”—Warren E. Buffett “This is a fascinating story that teaches you about the never-ending evolution of an entrepreneurial company, but even more about personal learning from that experience. So read, learn how to learn from experience, and enjoy.”—George P. Shultz, former secretary of Labor, Treasury, and State

Download or read book Discover Tomorrow s Top Stocks Today written by Paul H. Christiansen and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-03-20 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the title suggests this book is all about discovering tomorrow's top performing stocks . . . today!Tomorrow's top performing stocks are typically companies that have developed products or services that are game changers – or involve disruptive technologies.What differentiates this book from other books that attempt to identify companies with game changing products or services is that readers who successfully implement the procedures outlined in this book don't have to wait months or years for the universe of investors to discover these companies.The reason readers will not have to wait months or years is that they will be able identify stocks that are in the early stages of being discovered by a growing number of investors and are on the verge of developing strong upward trends – stocks that have the potential to double, triple – or more – in stock market value. The only way a stock can become a best performing stock – next week, next month or next year – is if its market value develops an upward trend.The metric used in this book to identify these exciting wealth-building stocks with upward trends involves an analysis of unusual volume anomalies - anomalies that typically portend the emergence of upward trends.Our Unusual Volume Metrics depict the ultimate vote of a growing number of investors – the escalating flow of money into specific stocks.The definitive research for determining if a trend following investing strategy works with stocks was conducted by Eric Crittenden and Cole Wilcox of BlackStar Funds. Their conclusions are summarized below:“What we found doing this trend following research in equities is an amazing statistic. The best 5% performing stocks, in any given year, are responsible for a large portion of market gain.If each year, for the last 20 years, an investor missed the top 5% performing stocks and instead owned the other 95% of the market, he or she would have lost money as an investor. Similarly, if you randomly bought a stock and held it over the last 20 years, there is a one in five chance that the investment would have lost 100% of its equity value. We observed that nearly 20% of all stocks that went public eventually lost all their value for shareholders.So we have 5% of stocks that are really moving the needle each year and an extraordinarily large number of stocks that are doomed investments. These extreme performers are there, each and every year, and they have a phenomenal impact on the market.”Among savvy institutional investment management firms and hedge funds, those 5% of stocks that are “moving the needle” are known as Alpha stocks – stocks that offer investors the potential to achieve investment returns that are significantly higher than the performance of the overall market.
