Summary |
This book will help you on your way with information, advice, and strategies- all supplied by experts in the field and expressed whenever possible in their own words. (One cautionary note: A disadvantage of letting people speak their own minds is that you also allow them to cite their own pet statistics; as a result, the same point made in different places in the book may be bolstered by different data, none necessarily inaccurate, just derived from diverse time periods or sets of securities.)
Each chapter builds on the previous ones. The opening chapter lays the groundwork, presenting definitions and discussions of basic terms and concepts. Chapter 2 addresses mutual funds and how to use them in your small-cap investing. The third discusses how to create and care for a portfolio of small stocks; Chapter 4 presents some strategies to use in picking and weeding out your investments. Finally, following these chapters are a resources section, containing the names and phone numbers of regional brokerages as well as sources for further reading and research, and an appendix, listing small-cap companies alphabetically and broken down by state.
