Four & twenty rules for buying & selling shares / Nigel McCarter.

Includes bibliographical references.

"This is not another get-rich-quick book - it does not promise to turn your dollar into a million - but it does describe how you can choose safe, profitable investments. Share investment can be simple and low-risk; shares provide higher returns than any other type of saving, superannuation scheme, or bank investment for very little effort. The key to successful investment comes from everyday knowledge and a reasonable idea of the rules underlying sharemarket investment. This book describes twenty-four key rules. The rules are derived from twenty years of successful investment experience. The aim is to provide straightforward, clear information on how and when you choose, buy, and sell shares. The rules help find reasonably priced companies that are likely to grow, and identify which investments you should avoid. The information is easy to find, and investment does not consume huge amounts of time and effort. The book is written for new and experienced investors, and uses examples from the New Zealand and Australian markets. Four & Twenty Rules For Buying & Selling Shares is an accessible, clear, and informative guide to sharemarket investment in any free share market, including the United Kingdom and the United States."--Publisher.
