Summary

Terranova teaches investors why the buy-low/sell-high model is broken, and instead shows them how to manage their portfolio based on a series of key metrics that determine whether the market is confident or pessimistic about a stock. The book will mix trading floor wisdom ("Never trade on a Monday morning") with specific, actionable tips that will help the reader to build a winning portfolio.
