Product Description:
Previous editions of this comprehensive reference book have been called “required reading for students, investors, and writers” by USA Today, and “a teeming reservoir of information” by the Oakland Tribune. Updated to reflect the 2006 investment climate, the new edition of Barron’s Finance and Investment Handbook presents a financial dictionary of more than 5,000 terms, an analysis of many current investment opportunities, guidelines for non-experts on what to look for when reading corporate reports and financial news sources, an up-to-date directory of hundreds of publicly traded corporations in the United States and Canada, and a directory listing the names and addresses of brokerage houses, mutual funds families, banks, federal and state regulators, and other major financial institutions. Here in one big volume is indispensable information for planning and maintaining a healthy investment portfolio.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent Reference
Excellent, extensive compendium reference for the investor and professional alike. A crash course for a novice. A must for every library.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Fantastic reference book
This is a very comprehensive reference book. I use it all the time. It is a must for investors, economists, etc.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Finance & Investment Handbook
This is a book you keep within hands reach. I'm an investor of stocks, real estate and businesses. There are so many "terms" for business and not everyone uses them properly.

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Investor's Dream
After reading this book, I went out that day and made $50,000 buying stocks, bonds and real estate. However, I blew it all the next day investing in rare coins and beanie babies. Maybe I should stick to CDs and money market funds.

Easy come, easy go.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - An invaluable, up-to-date reference
This book, useful for both the novice and the more advanced investor, provides a thorough overview of almost every type of investment (including bonds, annuities, life insurance, etc.) and an comprehensive glossary of investment terms. It is handy when it comes to looking up unfamiliar terms and is an enjoyable overall read. The book also contains a listing of brokerages, banks, etc. with phone numbers and addresses. It is probably the authoritative volume on investing, which is to be expected ... Read More
