Summary: One of the best book in stocks!
Comment: Pros:
* I know nothing about the stock market until I read this book.
* Very well explain on how to tackle the market during good times or bad.
* Even you know nothing about stock, you can have better understanding on this industry once you have read this book.
Cons:
* This book is good for gaining more knowledge but does not provide any plan or action that we need to take in order to succeed in this business. Overall, it is still ok.

Summary: A Goldmine of Stock Investing Ideas!
Comment: William O'Neil, who started a successful financial paper known as Investors Business Daily, wrote How to Make Money in Stocks. Decade of research, critical thinking and common sense has helped O'Neil to create some very powerful ways of investing successfully.
This book isn't about getting rich quick. It takes time, study diligence and patience coupled with controlling ones emotions to become an excellent investor.
I have read many books, magazines and articles on investing in stocks, bonds, mutual funds and more over the years. O'Neil's ideas are some of the most solid and consistent I have found to apply to the stock market.
In the book he teaches his CAN SLIM method of investing. Looking at these indicators are powerful ways to find the right stocks. CAN SLIM stands for:
C = Current Quarterly Earnings per share: The Higher the Better
A = Annual Earnings Increases: Look for Growth
N = New Products, New Management, New Highs
S = Supply and Demand
L = Leader or Laggard
I = Institutional Sponsorship
M = Market Direction
There are other great ideas in the book such as: Nineteen Common Mistakes Most Investors Make, How to Cut Your Losses, When to Sell and Take Your Profit and much more. How to Make Money in Stocks is a gold mine of ideas!
The Re-Discovery of Common Sense: A Guide to: The Lost Art of Critical Thinking

Summary: Useful And Valuable Information.
Comment: I haven't traded one share of stock in the Market...yet. With that having been said, I figured, if you're going to get advice about how to be successful in the Market, you may as well go to someone who knows. William J. O'Neil has been trading since the early 1960's. He bought a seat on the Exchange in 1963. William J. is also the founder of Investor's Business Daily (IBD). If you are interested in the Market and you haven't read an IBD, I would suggest that you at least try it. Information is the key to making sound decisions.
As a whole, the book is basically an advertisment for IBD. But don't let that get in the way of the information, guidance, logic, and strategies that are offered within the book. Before reading this book, I didn't have a clue about trading stocks. Now, I'm confident that I can pick a potential winner, take a position at the right time under he right conditions, take profits at the right time and, if necessary, bail out with minimum losses.
I definately recommend this book.

Summary: This is it
Comment: Do not listen to the negative opinions or reviews. They will not make you a dime. This book will teach a way of thinking to begin to make money in stocks. There are no books that you can buy that I know of that hand you a winning secret that will make you money, and I've read about 150 investment books. This book is your introduction to the world of Bill O'Neil, an investing giant who has made enough of a fortune in the market so that he has no need to A)sell books or
B)sell newspapers to make money as others here have suggested. Those of you that are old enough may understand that in a certain point in your career you want to leave a legacy, and it appears that this is O'Neils motivation. As a successful non-financial professional, I can tell you that you can make much more in the market than you can ever make in any other job, and this is even more true for a trader such as O'Neil, and he has no need to scam anyone as some other posters have suggested.
The book is really a detailed outline of what you need to do to make big money in the market. The theory is really a continuation of previous authors extending back to jesse Livermore. Yes, O'Neil pushes the paper, Investors Business Daily (IBD), but the paper really is essential to your investing success. There is no comparison to the entertaining but useless (for making money trading)Wall Street Journal. IBD is really like having a personal research department -it's that good. You cannot superficially approach the book or the paper and expect to make money. What you are getting is the only available entre that I know of for non-wall street professionals into the world of making money trading stocks. Do not pass the opportunity to begin this journey.
Customer Rating:
Summary: The best stock investing book I've read.
Comment: Its complicated. I'm not going to paint a rosy picture here; it takes time to digest AND understand the powerful concepts that William O'neil has gathered, with arguably years of research. But once you get past the heavy technicalities of understanding stocks, you will sail through them without fear and an edge.
