Description and Table of Contents
Description
This book covers every aspect of the stock market - its history, its products, how to buy stocks, how the buy order is transacted, what odd-lots are, what arbitrage is, pyramiding options, futures etc. The reader will come away from this book with both a broad overview of how the market works and with an understanding of the mechanics of transactions. With approximately 40% new material added to this edition, it has been updated to include information on new communications in both listed and over the counter markets. The authors have extensively increased their coverage of options and index trading; the chapters on technical and fundamental analyses have been revised to incorporate modern methods. Much new material on indexes and compliance has also been added.
