The Nasdaq Investor – Max Isaacman

This is a practical guide to investing in the Nasdaq index. It presents the basics of the Nasdaq as well as hands-on strategies for short-term and long term investing. Nasdaq reached a record 4000 points by the end of the 20th century. The US economy and stock market skyrocketed to levels beyond prediction. These successes have been largely based on the strength of technology stocks. The book looks at the paradigm shift and how the Internet affects the new economy.

FROM THE AUTHOR

The Nasdaq market is down over fifty percent from its high. If you believe in buying stocks when they are down, as I do, now is the time to buy my book, read it, and consider buying into this market where valuations have dropped. Investing has risk, be aware; but the best time to buy is when others are skeptical and even fearful.

Enjoy my book.
