THE BUSINESSWEEK, USA TODAY, AND WALL STREET JOURNAL BUSINESS BESTSELLER!

The bestselling guide to buying stocks, from the founder of Investor's Business Daily­­now completely revised and updated

When it was first published, How to Make Money in Stocks hit the investing world like a jolt, providing readers with the first in-depth explanation of William J. O'Neil's innovative CAN SLIM investing method. Five years later, O'Neil, founder for the industry icon Investor's Business Daily, revised his classic text and provided readers with a newer glimpse on how the average investor can make money in the equities market.

This third edition of How to Make Money in Stocks has been revised and updated with new chapters designed to help investors increase their performance. New discussions include:

  • Greater clarification of the key CAN SLIM investment strategy
  • Expanded analysis of the general market from the top of year 2000 to the market bottom of 2001
  • New models of the greatest stock market winners that provide more basis for the ongoing effectiveness and superior performance of the CAN SLIM strategy
  • Fresh stock charts featured in two colors for easier analysis of trends
  • And an invaluable guide on how to maximize both Investor's Business Daily and www.investors.com to find winning stocks

Like his international bestselling 24 Essential Lessons for Investment Success, which stayed on international business bestseller lists for close to 6 months in 2000, How to Make Money in Stocks is the best reference for the individual investor in how to stay afloat and ahead in the rocky and volatile equities markets of the 21st century.

Synopsis:

The third edition of a practical rule book for becoming an investment professional. It offers guidance for those who want to make smart investments - even if they've never owned stocks before. This updated edition includes new concepts, improved chart graphics and new research tools.

Synopsis:

The bestselling guide to buying stocks is now completely revised with all the information readers need on the entire investment process, from picking a broker to diversifying a portfolio to making a million in mutual funds.

Synopsis:

O'Neil's powerful CAN SLIM‘ investment modeling system­­based on an exhaustive study of the greatest stock market winners dating back to 1953­­is a straightforward, 7-step process for minimizing risk, maximizing return, and finding stocks that are poised to perform.

Praise for previous editions ...

"The most useful stock market book in years."

­­Management Accounting

"In O'Neil's opinion, a stock isn't unlike a car or a set of golf clubs­­you have to pay for quality. A winning system."

­­Personal Investor

"A superb book, spelling out his investment strategies in plain English and O'Neilisms."

­­San Francisco Business

"His very good advice comprises a mixture of three parts common sense and one part technical knowledge."

­­The American Spectator

About the Author

William J. O'Neil is the founder and chairman of Investor's Business Daily and the author of the million-copy best-seller How to Make Money in Stocks. Born in Oklahoma and raised in Texas, William J. O'Neil began his investment career as a stockbroker. He started investing with less than $500, but through continued study, mistakes, and a desire to find out exactly how the stock market really worked, O'Neil realized a 20-fold increase in his own account in 26 months from October 1962 to December 1964. He then purchased a set on the New York Stock Exchange and opened his own investment management and research firm, William O'Neil + Co., Incorporated, at the age of 30. Founded in 1963, William O'Neil + Co. was the first to create a computerized stock-market database, which is used today by over 400 major U.S. institutions across the country, including banks, insurance companies, pension and mutual funds, corporations, and government organizations. O'Neil wanted to provide individuals with the same critical data the professionals use in order to make smarter investment decisions so he launched Investor's Business Daily in 1984. By virtue of a proprietary contract with William O'Neil + Co., Investor's Business Daily is able to access the historical securities database for use in publication of the newspaper.

It works. I first read this book about ten years ago. Every year or two I go back and re-read it. Simple, logical steps (including when to bail out) can lead you to impressive gains.
