Description
'The Eddie Murphy of finance', as Alvin Hall has been called, gives his famously straight-talking advice on how to get going in the stock market. Aimed at the first-time investor, this book gives you all the low-down you need to know from your unit trust to your closed-end fund - and venture with confidence into the shark-infested waters of share buying. With the growth of internet investing, day-trading, and company share schemes, there has never been a greater need for a book which introduces you to the jargon, shows you the different options for investment, how to avoid the pitfalls, and who to trust for advice. This is an indispensable guide to an invaluable subject.
