Download or read book Equity Research for the Technology Investor written by Sundeep Bajikar and published by BAJIKAR TECH INVESTOR. This book was released on 2016-03-22 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes an equity research approach which combines principles of value investing with domain specific expertise in the technology industry. The book also provides an overview of the financial services industry and the different types of conflicts of interest that drive market participants toward objectives that may not be aligned with those of the individual investor. The book describes an equity research process that I have followed throughout my career as a financial analyst, and shows that equity research is difficult not just for the technical skills involved but also due to behavioral issues that one has to deal with quite frequently when it comes to investing. Equity Research takes a lot of work - much more than an individual investor is likely to be able to commit given that her main profession is probably something other than investing. A central message of the book is for the individual investor to find an independent investment manager who she can trust to pursue an investment strategy that is aligned with her goals.

Download or read book Trading Investing 2 in 1 Ebook Bundle written by Alan Kerrman and published by Notable Media. This book was released on 2016-07-21 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Investing & Trading Bundle Welcome to the volatile stock, futures, options, commodities, and forex markets. Not long ago, I wrote a couple short books on my personal [individual investor] approach to investing: Investing in DRIPs and Trading Options on Tech Stocks. These two books are bundled here together specifically because I think these cover the two best ways to approach trading and investing. But it wasn’t exactly an accident. My wife recently rolled out her 401k funds from a former employer’s control into her own self-directed account. She asked me what course of action I thought she should take and I laughed! “Didn’t you read my books?” I said. “Yes,” she said, intensely glaring at me in that loving way only a wife can do. So after several conversations, a few examples, and looking at some options chains — she sold puts in a couple stocks. First on Target Corp (TGT) before the year ended which expired worthless (in her favor!), and now she has some Apple (AAPL) puts at the $100 level - which has been tested a couple times. Another good friend we saw at a holiday party was asking me what I would do with a small windfall he had recently received. (Since I’m not a professional financial advisor, please understand I don’t go around giving advice! These are just my spouse and friend asking my opinion, so I feel okay showing them what I know! I tell them to educate themselves because this stuff isn’t too hard to understand.) Anyway, I told my friend all about DRIPs and how it removed a lot of the fear in the market for me because you start to see the incredible benefits of up and down markets, just like with options. So even if this market is moving toward a minor pullback with increased volatility, or a major correction, these are two great investing and trading strategies to get under your belt. And the time spent learning just how useful they are has been so worth it for me and my family. Good luck to you and yours in the upcoming trading year, and enjoy these two books included here in their original versions, minus a few formatting changes to create this bundle.

Download or read book FutureWealth written by Francis McInerney and published by Truman Talley Books. This book was released on 2000-03-22 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American economy has been turned upside down during the past decade in one of the most tumultuous economic revolutions in world history. The result: the United States has put more distance between itself and its commercial rivals than anyone imagined possible. Annual growth in the U.S. economy matches the size of whole countries. The Dow Jones Industrial Average has reached once-unthinkable heights. Three-quarters of the world's top fifty companies are now American. In FutureWealth, a superbly researched book, the authors provide a startling new way of looking at America's success. The reason for our exceptional performance is the breathtaking pace at which U.S. companies today substitute information for all other resources at their disposal. The authors explore major companies that have substituted information throughout their operations. They also show how the results have been dramatic in those companies' expanded bottom lines and rising stock valuations-- and how investors can both learn and profit from the information revolution around us. FutureWealth is a landmark book and a very timely read for investors, managers, and policy makers the world over.
