This book has all the basics you need to know about the stock market, from options to IPOs. It is indeed a great book for beginners, especially if you don't know much about all the investment terms. However, if you look for actual stock plays and case studies, look for another book.
great primer!

I am not a big fan of nonfiction reading, but this book was quick and easy to read. It has information on just about everything to answer all of your stock questions. I would definitely recommend it to any novice who wants to get started in the stock market.
I knew nothing and now I'm encouraged to go on learning.

As a true beginner, I knew NOTHING of P/E ratios, stop orders, NAV, and all of the terms that intimidated me when trying an online brokerage for the first time. This book gave me enough info to convince me that I can do this. More reading will be required, though.
Excellent easy to read, for the beginning investor

Extremely easy concise book for the beginning investor. If your future investment growth and retirement are important to you, and your broker speaks in a language that is totally confusing. Read this book first, you'll be on your way to smarter investment decisions. In conclusion, you need to understand this publication before going on to other more complicated market concepts.
Don't know anything about stocks? Read this!

This book is clear, readable, understandable and at times funny. It's for someone who often wonders what some of the articles, terms or charts on the stock pages really mean, but is too embarrassed to ask. You can read each chapter in under ten minutes, and the information in each chapter builds on the previous ones. If you thought you'd never understand investing, read this book. It will calm you down and inspire more confidence in how you can make your own wise investment decisions.
