Book excerpt: Brad Koteshwar, the author of The Perfect Speculator, first came to be known for his report on a phenomenal 7000% price run in 52 weeks by Taser International's stock. When he released that report he had written for his clients as a fiction and looked for publicity in the local Arizona media, he was rebuffed as the who's who in the small but affluent communities of Arizona were all owners of Taser stocks. None of them wanted to believe that the stock price on Taser had topped out in April 2004.In this book, Brad Koteshwar continues the simple lessons of the stock market in a teacher and student format using the character of Boyd Hunt, a master speculator, as the teacher. In this day and age where fast, loose and easy money is hawked by the hundreds of stock market books, the author shows how the old, tried and true principles have always worked in past market cycles and will continue to work in future market cycles.

Book excerpt: This book perfectly illustrates why most people lose in the stock market, even when tremendous opportunities are presented to them.

Only a handful of the insiders made money on the move. Written as a fiction surrounding such a stock, the book offers simple lessons to the lay person about how to improve one's odds for success in the stock market, and it does so with an entertaining and enlightening storyline. The story offers an insight into the rewarding way Wall Street works for the insiders and how it shows a different face to the outsiders.

Book excerpt: "Halfway between Frederick Forsyth's Dogs of War and Ayn Rand's Fountainhead. The gold mine in the jungle, the mercenaries, and the child soldiers keep you turning the pages. A morality tale with modern twists." -John Mackey (Founder, Whole Foods Market and author of Conscious Capitalism) The greatest gold discovery in history draws a young Charles Knight to West Africa, where he unearths deception, violence, and romance. Xander Winn-a Dutchman on his own mission-mentors Charles on his voyage into the world of speculation and African politics. But a psychopathic rebel leader, the purveyors of a six-billion-dollar fraud, a team of mercenaries bent on early retirement, and the US government all get in his way. Everyone wants him dead. But Charles plans to strike it rich. ADVANCE PRAISE FOR SPECULATOR "Speculator uses the cover of a thrilling tale of international intrigue to provide an economic and moral defense of the much-maligned speculator and an economic and moral condemnation of those who profit via force and fraud. Doug Casey and John Hunt have provided an invaluable service to those looking for unique ways to spread the ideas of liberty." -Dr. Ron Paul "Speculator may prove to be the first in a new genre of fiction. Give this book to all your friends and enemies." -John Hart (Author of Redemption Road) "Adventure... intrigue... philosophy... politics... you'll find it all in this fast-paced novel from Doug Casey and John Hunt. Most important, you'll find thoughts - the kind of thoughts that will make you think too." -Bill Bonner (Author of Empire of Debt and Mobs, Messiahs, and Markets) "Speculator will keep you thinking long past the conclusion and for years to come."-Robert Ringer (Author of Looking Out for #1 and Winning Through Intimidation) "Speculator is a roller-coaster lesson on the arcane world of gold-mine investing. An African revolution, massive fraud with massive profits and losses-the novel is such fun you don't notice how much you are learning. But, mostly, it is a good read with a unique protagonist." -Wendy McElroy (Author of Liberty for Women) "Move over John Galt and Humphrey Bogart, Speculator has created an old-fashioned hero with contemporary style and sex appeal. Expert cicerones lead us through the dark world of African mining and international finance. It is a riveting tale, perfect for a day at the beach or a long-winter's-night read. Pure gold." -Richard Harteis (Author of Marathon and Publishing Director of Poets-Choice.com) "Passionately pointed and provocative."-David Brin (Author of Earth and The Postman) "Speculator combines the fast-paced action of a Dirk Pitt adventure story with the cerebral message of an Ayn Rand novel. The authors' knowledge of how markets, mining, and governments work is impressive, yet the book reads like a day at the beach. Crisp, intelligent, and witty, this new adventure series might even out-Rand Rand." -Jo Ann Skousen (Professor of English Literature, Chapman University)

Download or read book Granville s New Key to Stock Market Profits written by Joseph E. Granville and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2018-12-05 with total page 531 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this remarkable stock market study, one of Wall Street’s best known market analysts reveals a new technical tool he developed for gauging the pulse of the trading cycle. Called the On Balance Volume Theory, this tool tends to fill in some of the conspicuous voids in the famous Dow Theory—especially the lack of discussion and use of stock volume figures. As straightforward as a set of bridge rules, on-balance volume (OBV) denotes each buy and sell signal so that a trader can follow them without his own emotions tending to lead him astray—emotions causing most of the market misjudgements that take place. The Granville OBV method is essentially scientific, has a high degree of accuracy and has many automatic features. The reader of this book will be introduced to a method whereby he may benefit by the earlier movements of volume over price—the “early warning” radar of volume buy and sell signals.

Download or read book Devil Take the Hindmost written by Edward Chancellor and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2000-06-01 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lively, original, and challenging history of stock market speculation from the 17th century to present day. Is your investment in that new Internet stock a sign of stock market savvy or an act of peculiarly American speculative folly? How has the psychology of investing changed—and not changed—over the last five hundred years? In Devil Take the Hindmost, Edward Chancellor traces the origins of the speculative spirit back to ancient Rome and chronicles its revival in the modern world: from the tulip scandal of 1630s Holland, to “stockjobbing” in London's Exchange Alley, to the infamous South Sea Bubble of 1720, which prompted Sir Isaac Newton to comment, “I can calculate the motion of heavenly bodies, but not the madness of people.” Here are brokers underwriting risks that included highway robbery and the “assurance of female chastity”; credit notes and lottery tickets circulating as money; wise and unwise investors from Alexander Pope and Benjamin Disraeli to Ivan Boesky and Hillary Rodham Clinton. From the Gilded Age to the Roaring Twenties, from the nineteenth century railway mania to the crash of 1929, from junk bonds and the Japanese bubble economy to the day-traders of the Information Era, Devil Take the Hindmost tells a fascinating story of human dreams and folly through the ages.

Book excerpt: What is unique to these top stock market performers? GameStop (GME) ran from $9.47 to $325 in 4 months. Riot Blockchain (RIOT) ran up from $2.64 to $71.30 in 7 months. Cassava Sciences (SAVA) ran up from $11.93 to $100 in 5 months. Plug Power (PLUG) ran up from $6.83 to $70 in 7 months. Moderna (MRNA) and Celldex Therapeutics (CLDX) also fell in the same category. During their runs, none of them ever violated an uptrend. What new set of stocks could offer similar trends and returns? If such additional stocks were to present themselves, would you make proper decisions? What is a good decision? If one examined the worst trading (or life) mistake one made, at that precise moment of making that decision one thought it was a good decision. Otherwise, would you have made that decision in the first place? What would it be worth in dollars if that big mistake could have been avoided? Decision-making is a skill that can be learned. With enough practice, one can excel in proper decision-making. The stock market is a perfect training ground to master this art. Where else is there real consequence that is easily and quickly measurable with every decision made? The author's outlook about stock trading is simple. "You do not learn to walk, talk and run by reading books. You learn by doing. No different in the stock market. Or life. Ninety percent of the knowledge in life is learned by doing, not by reading about doing." Reviews: "Wow, so good! And to think I spent thousands in tuition to the market, trying to learn!" - Jennifer G, Trader-In-Training "When a stock speaks, you should listen," should have been the title! Thanks for the watchlist of potential new gems! Now, I just need to learn to make proper decisions. ---A. Greenberg, Master Chartist Of Over 40 Years "Thank you so much for presenting a book that made charts speak to me!" ---Adam J. "Read and learn to build your own watchlist of potential winners! That watchlist in the book, very interesting!" ---Larry F. "Well worth many-fold the subscription fees I pay for many stock-market services! Actual executable implementable knowledge in this book that can be used for a lifetime - it is priceless." ---J. O'Neill About the Author: Brad Koteshwar began trading Foreign Currency futures and Treasury Bond futures in the mid-eighties. He started trading stocks in 1987 and promptly experienced Black Monday 1987 first-hand. Having started his market experience with a major trading firm of the 1980s, he went on to work for himself in the 1990s. Now, approaching the end of his fourth decade in the markets, he leads a simple and uncomplicated life and uses the same simple uncomplicated approach to his stock market evaluation and activity. Many years have passed since his last book. But the lessons and the methods have not changed. The subtle art of speculation has not changed. He says that is because human beings do not change their emotions when it comes to money. The messages in the charts are clear, if only you can observe.

Download or read book The Perfect Watchlist 1 written by Brad Koteshwar and published by . This book was released on 2022-03-07 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A few words from the author: Which stocks to buy? When to buy these stocks? When to sell these stocks? What is the current hot sector? Biotech stocks? Tech stocks? Energy stocks? Growth stocks? No stocks? If one were making a killing in the market already, one would not be here reading this. A thousand books on stock trading out there. Quite honestly, none will make you rich. Only you, by yourself can make you rich. All the lessons you need to learn in the stock market, you must learn on your own. Through your own personal experience. Not from someone else's experience. Just like in any other life endeavor. You learn from your own experiences, not from someone else's. And you only learn by doing, not by reading. Okay, why then should you be buying this book? My answer is that you should not. Unless you are trying to confirm what your eyes are telling you about the market. This book was written for my own use to keep a running tab of the stocks that are on my watchlist as of this writing. Six months or a year from now, who knows, the list may or may not have changed much. Just have to wait, and see. Six months or later from now, once can look at these stocks and see what messages they were giving that came to be true. What is a watchlist? Watchlist is a term now everybody uses. But it really is a list of stocks that is on a list that you are watching. Watching for clues, hints, and actionable opportunities. It is a living, breathing list. Which means, it is constantly changing, ebbing, and waning with market conditions. You do not have to try hard to find stocks that wish to join or drop off this list. It happens automatically, dictated by the market. The best thing about a watchlist is that you have no reason to believe anyone else. All you need to know will be disclosed by the stocks on your watchlist. Is the market strong? Can you make money in the market under current conditions? Is this a bad market? Is this a good market? It is going up? Going down? Choppy? All that is there to know is indicated by the stocks on your watchlist. My watchlist has a few stocks at the current time. Many are unknown stocks to many. Some are known stocks to some. What is on my list may not be on your list. That is because what I see are seen from my eyes. Your eyes may see something else. My eyes learned to see what they see due to my own experiences. Yours will see what they want to see from your own experiences in the market.

Download or read book One Up On Wall Street written by Peter Lynch and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2000-04-03 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE NATIONAL BESTSELLING BOOK THAT EVERY INVESTOR SHOULD OWN Peter Lynch is America's number-one money manager. His mantra: Average investors can become experts in their own field and can pick winning stocks as effectively as Wall Street professionals by doing just a little research. Now, in a new introduction written specifically for this edition of One Up on Wall Street, Lynch gives his take on the incredible rise of Internet stocks, as well as a list of twenty winning companies of high-tech '90s. That many of these winners are low-tech supports his thesis that amateur investors can continue to reap exceptional rewards from mundane, easy-to-understand companies they encounter in their daily lives. Investment opportunities abound for the layperson, Lynch says. By simply observing business developments and taking notice of your immediate world -- from the mall to the workplace -- you can discover potentially successful companies before professional analysts do. This jump on the experts is what produces "tenbaggers," the stocks that appreciate tenfold or more and turn an average stock portfolio into a star performer. The former star manager of Fidelity's multibillion-dollar Magellan Fund, Lynch reveals how he achieved his spectacular record. Writing with John Rothchild, Lynch offers easy-to-follow directions for sorting out the long shots from the no shots by reviewing a company's financial statements and by identifying which numbers really count. He explains how to stalk tenbaggers and lays out the guidelines for investing in cyclical, turnaround, and fast-growing companies. Lynch promises that if you ignore the ups and downs of the market and the endless speculation about interest rates, in the long term (anywhere from five to fifteen years) your portfolio will reward you. This advice has proved to be timeless and has made One Up on Wall Street a number-one bestseller. And now this classic is as valuable in the new millennium as ever.

This book was released on 2022-04-26T22:59:00Z with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I had written a report about Taser’s phenomenal price run of 7000 percent in 52 weeks, which was received well by readers. But some could not grasp the lessons buried within the book. I was not an expert on the English language, and my mind was focused on incorporating the market lessons within the fiction rather than being politically correct with impeccable use of written English. #2 I was shocked to hear that Boyd had lung cancer. He had been a heavy smoker for many years in his younger days, but had quit in his fifties. The damage done to his lungs in his younger days had apparently caught up with him. #3 I was nervous to take over Boyd’s work, as I was not as gifted a thinker as he was. I knew I was gifted with a quick mind, but he was an operator whose mind worked at a much higher plane. I felt inadequate. #4 There are no infallible systems. If there was one, the market would cease to exist. As the market will clean up the market, one must accept that fact and realize that all that is needed to be a successful speculator is in the price and volume action of leading stocks and indices.

Book excerpt: One of BuzzFeed's 24 Best Fiction Books of 2015 "As Simon, a lonely research librarian, searches frantically for the key to a curse that might be killing the women in his family, he learns strange and fascinating secrets about their past. A tale full of magic and family mystery, The Book of Speculation will keep you up all night reading."—Isaac Fitzgerald, BuzzFeed Simon Watson, a young librarian, lives alone in a house that is slowly crumbling toward the Long Island Sound. His parents are long dead. His mother, a circus mermaid who made her living by holding her breath, drowned in the very water his house overlooks. His younger sister, Enola, ran off six years ago and now reads tarot cards for a traveling carnival. One June day, an old book arrives on Simon's doorstep, sent by an antiquarian bookseller who purchased it on speculation. Fragile and water damaged, the book is a log from the owner of a traveling carnival in the 1700s, who reports strange and magical things, including the drowning death of a circus mermaid. Since then, generations of "mermaids" in Simon's family have drowned--always on July 24, which is only weeks away. As his friend Alice looks on with alarm, Simon becomes increasingly worried about his sister. Could there be a curse on Simon's family? What does it have to do with the book, and can he get to the heart of the mystery in time to save Enola? In the tradition of Sara Gruen's Water for Elephants, Erin Morgenstern's The Night Circus, and Elizabeth Kostova's The Historian, The Book of Speculation--with two-color illustrations by the author--is Erika Swyler's moving debut novel about the power of books, family, and magic.
