Summary

In Midas Investing, Steinberg explains his unique five-part stock-selection system. He shows exactly where investors should look for the most accurate and revealing company earnings data, and which numbers in the flood of statistics really matter. Steinberg explains why insider buying - when the top executives of a company start buying the company's stock - is such a good sign of corporate upswing, and how to find out who's buying and when. He also examines the controversy behind "momentum investing" and reveals how an investor can sift through rising stocks to pick the ones that are going to climb even further and avoid those that have peaked.
