Tight spine, bright pages. 226 pages. In The On-Line Investor, Ted Allrich shows computer owners and prospective investors how to maximize the earning power of the desktop. Allrich's focus is on small-capitalization stocks - growth companies that have limited shares of available stock. Historically the most profitable group of stocks, small-caps are often ignored by Wall Street managers but are perfect for the individual investor. As Allrich observes, individual investors were at a distinct disadvantage until recently, but the advent of on-line stock information from Prodigy, America Online, CompuServe, and other sources has leveled the playing field. Now a savvy investor can tap into data formerly reserved for professionals only.. First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. more information

NO writing, marks or tears inside book. - Like the rest of us, you probably think of your morning cappuccino as a pretty good "fresh start" every day. But as Ginger Applegarth shows in Wake Up and Smell the Money, there are even better ways to wake up and put not only your morning but your financial life into caffeine mode. (And did you know that if you saved the cost of that cappuccino say, $3 over 40 years, you'd net nearly $500,000?) In the upbeat and immensely practical style of her bestselling book, The Money Diet, recommended by USA Today as "a sound investment," Wake Up and Smell the Money offers sage, timely, and sometimes unconventional advice for every major turning point in life. For instance, did you know that you should: * put money in a retirement plan, even if you still have cc debt. * do your children a favor by saving for your own retirement even if it means they're paying their own way through college. * not make extra payments to pay off your mortgage early. What Gail Sheehy did for our emotional development, Applegarth, drawing on her years as a financial planner and a media personality, has done for our journey toward wealth. Structured "season" by "season," filled with frank and reassuring talk about real problems, with real life, sometimes humorous client examples and truly idiotproof charts, this is a reference source for a lifetime, one you will open again and again as you pass through every stage and season. Whether you're planning the big picture or focusing on a specific milestone from buying your first house to starting over at 50, Wake Up and Smell the Money puts you in control of your own financial destiny. .

Illustrated. 246 pages. Synopsis In the early 18th century, the South Sea Company was incorporated with the purpose of exploiting the wealth of Louisiana and the Caribbean. Investors flocked to the company with the encouragement of English politicians. Unfortunately for the investors, the company never owned a single trip or financed a single journey and the whole scheme eventually imploded. Journalist Balen narrates the story of the company, paying particular attention to the motivations of the various company officers and implicated government officials, which are often remarkably similar to those driving the Enron, Worldcom, and other current financial scandals.

Random House Inc, 1993 Near-new condition - NO remainder marks or price clippings - One corner is slightly bumped - Stated First Edition - Price inside dustcover: $25.00 - 399 pages - Tight spine - Bright pages - NO writing, marks or tears inside book - The Outlaw Bank goes straight to the corrupt heart of the most spectacular financial scandal in history: the collapse of the Bank of Credit and Commerce International. A riveting mix of Dr. No and All the President's Men, The Outlaw Bank tells the story of the collapse of the BCCI in a unique, revealing - and unforgettable - way. Time correspondents Jonathan Beaty and S. C. Gwynne didn't just report on the BCCI story; from the first tip, they became players in a game of journalistic three-dimensional chess - full of murky leads and shady sources who often were not what they seemed. Through their fastpaced, firsthand account, we are there as Beaty and Gwynne arrange back-channel rendezvous; find a way around government stonewalling; and slowly begin to trace the web of kickbacks, corruption, and cover-ups that spanned three U.S. administrations and ensnared politicians and business figures around the world. The Outlaw Bank shows how the BCCI was more than a bank with a portfolio of bad loans and nasty clients like Manuel Noriega and the Medellin cartel. With offices and agents in every corner of the world, the BCCI had become a clearinghouse for almost anything: political bribes, untraceable cash, guns, tanks - even nuclear weapons. Beaty and Gwynne tell the real BCCI story with all of its amazing detail and mysterious characters. They go inside the mind of Agha Hasan Abedi, BCCI's messianic founder, whose vision of a Third World bank became twisted into a financial evil empire that moved effortlessly across national borders. They show how Manhattan District Attorney Robert Morgenthau and others mounted a massive inquiry - in the face of opposition from the U.S. Justice Department - that eventually led to the indictment of both the bank and former Defense Secretary Clark Clifford. They reveal how they unraveled the BCCI's labyrinth of connections in Africa, Europe, and the United States, and with the CIA - and how their investigation broke through the Washington.

NO writing, marks or tears inside book - How the Futures Markets Work introduces the uninitiated to the world of futures, explaining in nontechnical language its products, players, mechanisms, procedures, tools, and basic hedging and trading strategies. In How the Futures Markets Work, Jake Bernstein, acknowledged expert on futures worldwide, describes all pertinent aspects of the modern futures exchange: identifying and provide basic information on the 11 U.S. future exchanges and the 23 foreign ones, explaining the purpose of an exchange, detailing their management and organization, and describing both their overall roles in futures trading and the step-by-step specifics of daily operations on the trading floor. He examines the different futures markets, from the traditional ones in agriculture commodities to such newer arenas as foreign currency, interest rate, and stock index futures. Bernstein then responds to the types of practical questions any potential investor in the these markets will pose: How to find and select a broker, including a checklist of precisely what sorts of services the investor should expect. How to open an account, how to place an order, and what the different types of orders are. How to develop a trading strategy. And, he helps investors recognize any signs that they should not enter the futures arena (including such diverse reasons as time constrictions or emotional unsuitability), to determining investment goals or such nitty-gritty questions as whether they will need a computer or want a charting service. It also describes the alternatives to activate trading--for example, investing in commodity funds or subscribing to an advisory hotline.

He explains that in the unregulated 1980s, banks, insurance companies, lawyers and accountants now compete for ``planning'' fees and commissions on the sale of stocks, bonds, realty trusts, annuities and other financial instruments. Economists, investment letters and Wall Street prophets have been consistently wrong, argues the author, but there are ways that investors can knowledgeably set financial goals and judge specific investment choices.

Is it possible your husband has forgotten to remove his ex-wife's name as the beneficiary of his life insurance? (Don't smirk, it happens all the time.) Can you talk to your accountant as comfortably as you hairdresser? If you had a medical catastrophe or lost your job, would you have enough money to tide you over? Most women do not have good answers to these questions, and neither did Diane Terman Felenstein and her friends. Though smart and accomplished in many arenas, every one of them -- like women everywhere -- had fears about dealing with money. They were reluctant to talk candidly about financial issues with their husbands, intimidated by their advisors, and afraid to tackle their finances alone -- as 90 percent of women eventually must do. The bottom line became increasingly clear: If you want a safe and secure future, you have to learn how to manage your money today. With this in mind, Felenstein set out to form an investment club and asked Marilyn Crockett, a highly successful financial consultant, to be its chief expert. Their book, The Money Club, is the result of their experience -- and is the only complete financial guide written by women for women that explains the secrets of managing money, whether you have $5,000 in assets or $50,000. .

Synopsis Are upstart competitors taking deadly aim at your company's products and markets? Richard A. D'Aveni, author of the famous attacker's handbook Hypercompetition, presents coun-terrevolutionary strategies and tactics that any industry leader or established company can use to defend itself against revolutionaries, disrupters, or hypercompetitors. The secret lies in making the rules, not breaking them, D'Aveni says, because rule makers still rule. Arguing that "profits and prosperity come not from revolution but stability and orderly change," D'Aveni presents a commanding framework that will enable any resource-rich or clever defender to gain Strategic Supremacy by being first to define the playing field. D'Aveni demonstrates how global powerhouses such as Disney, Microsoft, and Procter & Gamble have achieved preeminence by reconceptualizing their product portfolios as powerful competitive arsenals he calls "spheres of influence." Essentially a new way to compete by restructuring portfolios around a core geographic/product market, spheres enable any company to influence the behavior and positioning of rivals. In immensely readable prose, D'Aveni describes how prevailing spheres of influence can be used to create legal business equivalents to a "concert of powers" and other industry structures that mix cooperation with competition. Just one of the potent functions of a corporate sphere, D'Aveni shows, is to contain competitors of equal size (as NBC contained ABC). Spheres can also be used to stabilize an entire industry's global power system. A glance at the detailed table of contents will provide a sense of the wealth of new information contained in this essential handbook of global warfare, including "how-to" tools the reader will need to measure and map the pattern of competitive pressure in any industry and to interpret the meaning and strategic implications of these pressure patterns for his or her position within the industry's power hierarchy. .

John Wiley & Sons, 2000 Near-new condition. NO remainder marks or price clippings. Tight spine, bright pages. NO writing, marks or tears inside book. 370 pages. Synopsis A seminal work - reformulating marketing around creating shareholder value. For the first time, marketing is integrated with the governing objective of management. A practical, step-by-step guide to developing marketing strategies that generate growth and shareholder value. An essential text for top management and MBAs. Marketing has not had the impact on management that its importance merits. This is largely due to its unclear objectives and weak intellectual foundations. Value Based Marketing reformulates marketing, making its goals more relevant and establishing it on a sounder intellectual basis. The governing objective of management in all of today's leading companies is to maximise long-term returns to shareholders. The book redefines marketing's role as contributing to this task of shareholder value creation. It explores how this affects marketing planning and decisions about brands, pricing, communications, distribution and the Internet. The increasing emphasis placed on the financial technique of shareholder value as a means for measuring a company's performance has provided a major opportunity for marketing managers: the ability to increase greatly their sphere of influence in setting their company's strategic direction like never before. The book provides a clear practical introduction to shareholder value analysis and provides practical tools for translating marketing ideas into the financial framework used by modern boards of directors. For top management and CFOs, the book explains how marketing generates shareholder value. It shows how top management should evaluate strategies and stimulate more effective and relevant marketingin their companies. . Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. more information

Annotation Dreyfus, Wall Street maverick and founder of the billion-dollar Dreyfus Fund, offers the story of his remarkable life, from his early years in Montgomery, Alabama, through college, the Coast Guard, and eventually to the New York Stock Exchange, where he created his formula for sharing America's wealth with millions of small investors. of photos. BookList Anyone who paid any attention to magazine and newspaper ads in the early 1980s probably noticed the seemingly quixotic quest taken with a book called "A Remarkable Medicine Has Been Overlooked" (1981). Similarly, anyone who watches television must be aware of the Dreyfus Fund and its roaring symbol, the Wall Street lion. Few, however, realize any connection. Jack Dreyfus was once identified by "Financial World" magazine as one of the "greatest investors of the 20th century" and he founded one of the first major mutual funds. He also suffered from serious depression in 1957 and attributes his recovery to the drug phenytoin, known popularly as Dilantin. An unsuccessful 15-year campaign to win FDA approval and greater acceptance of this drug culminated in "A Remarkable Medicine". Here Dreyfus tells his two stories. In the first he boasts matter-of-factly of his personal achievements and financial successes. In the second he dons again his battle armor to detail his frustrations with both the medical and the federal regulatory establishments and to extol the positive effects of Dilantin.

Free Press, 2006 Near-new condition - Price inside dustcover: $26.00 - NO remainder marks or price clippings - Tight spine - Bright pages - NO writing, marks or tears inside book. 269 pages - It's the last question you think about before going to sleep, and the first on your mind in the morning. It's a taboo that you can't easily discuss with friends and can barely face with family. It's The Number: the amount of money you need to secure the rest of your life. Do you know what your Number is? Do you know how to think about it? Do you know what you really want to do with it? A provocative field guide to our psyches and our finances, Lee Eisenberg's The Number will help you have the money conversations you have been avoiding. It will make you think about the kind of life you want and the kind of help you need to achieve it. You will also discover: Why you wander through your financial "lost years" until it is almost too late Why downshifting into retirement is so challenging How the second half of life is being reinvented as we live longer An important program for anyone over thirty, The Number should be read before you consult an investment adviser or a retirement guide and above all, before the rest of your life slips by, unexamined. From The Critics Publishers Weekly Eisenberg's arc through life could be used to define the baby boom. In the 1970s, he coined the term power lunch; in the 1980s, he edited Esquire and invented rotisserie baseball. In the 1990s, he wrote books on finding the good life through golf and fishing, and at the end of the decade, he joined an Internet retailer. These days, he's thinking about retirement, particularly about his Number: the amount of money he'd need to have socked away in order to be confident that his postretirement life would meet his expectations. Everyone's Number is different, Eisenberg says, and though his book is not an especially useful financial guide, it isn't really meant as a how-to. Instead, it provides an illuminating and charmingly written consideration of an aging generation's retirement worries and of the investment business designed to profit from them. Heartfelt discussions of goals, health and health care, "downshifting" to enjoy life while spending less money and the meaning of postretirement life pepper its pages. Financial planners are interviewed, partly to get information about savings and investment, but mostly to explore the meaning of the field and the type of people who practice it. A few of Eisenberg's chapters feel scattershot, but his perceptive analyses of real and fictional people's financial hopes and strategies will inspire readers to reconsider their Numbers and their methods for investing.

Annotation The recognized heavy hitters on Wall Street are as tough as nails for a good reason--when it comes to playing the markets, they know attitude is everything. And that means checking their emotions (and egos) at the door. Now a board-certified psychiatrist and a well-known brokerage firm founder team up to give investors the tools for achieving a winning mindset. From the Publisher Every serious investor is assailed by internal conflicts. When ignored or left unchecked, these hidden desires, fears, hesitations, and ambitions can eclipse your judgment and compromise even the most solid investing or trading strategy. In this mind-opening book, one of today's best financial minds joins forces with a practicing psychiatrist to explore the key psychological traps that underlie investing failure, and supply market-proven strategies for overcoming each one. The Psychology of Smart Investing is the product of both extensive field research and compelling insights gleaned from two in-depth nationwide surveys; the first involving hundreds of typical individual investors, men and women, veterans and novices, and the other, a group of professional traders, money managers, and investment experts. These studies demonstrate conclusively how an investor's psychological make up - his or her personality, life philosophy, and investment psyche - impacts investing success and failure. Now you can easily determine which of the six most common investor/trader psychological profiles is most reflective of your actions and attitudes towards money. And you can employ the same powerful mind/money tools the pros use to break through mental roadblocks to achieve your investing and trading goals. The Psychology of Smart Investing is filled with self-assessment exercises, investment action plans, and enlightening case histories drawn from the authors' experiences in psychological and investment counseling. Together, they help you chart and interpret your most personal thoughts, fantasies, dreams, and plans, and use this feedback to make vital connections into what really drives your investing and trading decisions. You'll gain a clearer understanding of how your personal style, past history, and current preoccupations influence your investment success.

Technology and the lightning-fast movement of money around the globe are combining to complete the job in the nineties. Wall Street is dying. The world's financial capital, grossly mismanaged, over-weight, and sclerotic, is caught in a bear trap from which it cannot escape. Paul Gibson, a long-time financial journalist, goes behind the daily headlines and explains, in a lively and provocative manner, why Wall Street won't work anymore. The financial community is undergoing its greatest changes in recent memory and is learning a bitter truth. Computers and competition make it impossible to earn profits the old-fashioned way, in underwriting or by selling stocks. And the new ethic sweeping the land will not tolerate self-dealing and fraud. Chronicling three decades of regulatory and technological changes, Bear Trap examines the gradual decentralization of the financial markets and the shifts in power that eventually let London and Tokyo challenge New York's supremacy. It is a tale of the evolution of global money, where vast pools of capital - in pension and mutual funds - are bypassing Wall Street. Armed with their own computers and advisers, these institutions trade among themselves. Battered by market crashes, individual investors, too, are turning their backs on Wall Street and the stock exchanges. Bear Trap follows Wall Street's bankers as they adopt the high-risk strategies that produced the financial follies of the 1980s. Turning increasingly from agent to principal, they suppress traditional services in favor of bridge loans, junk bonds, the aiding of raiders, and the rigging of markets, all in a desperate attempt to compensate for lost business. Step by step, the narrative shows a cottage industry leveraging itself into a risky global business, with billions of dollars in debts. The successes or failures on Wall Street and in the financial community affect everyone's lives and fortunes. Already. First Edition. Hard Cover.
