Book Description THE NATIONAL BESTSELLING BOOK THAT EVERY INVESTOR SHOULD OWN Peter Lynch is America's number-one money manager. His mantra: Average investors can become experts in their own field and can pick winning stocks as effectively as Wall Street professionals by doing just a little research. Now, in a new introduction written specifically for this edition of One Up on Wall Street, Lynch gives his take on the incredible rise of Internet stocks, as well as a list of twenty winning companies of high-tech '90s. That many of these winners are low-tech supports his thesis that amateur investors can continue to reap exceptional rewards from mundane, easy-to-understand companies they encounter in their daily lives. Investment opportunities abound for the layperson, Lynch says. By simply observing business developments and taking notice of your immediate world -- from the mall to the workplace -- you can discover potentially successful companies before professional analysts do. This jump on the experts is what produces "tenbaggers," the stocks that appreciate tenfold or more and turn an average stock portfolio into a star performer. The former star manager of Fidelity's multibillion-dollar Magellan Fund, Lynch reveals how he achieved his spectacular record. Writing with John Rothchild, Lynch offers easy-to-follow directions for sorting out the long shots from the no shots by reviewing a company's financial statements and by identifying which numbers really count. He explains how to stalk tenbaggers and lays out the guidelines for investing in cyclical, turnaround, and fast-growing companies. Lynch promises that if you ignore the ups and downs of the market and the endless speculation about interest rates, in the long term (anywhere from five to fifteen years) your portfolio will reward you. This advice has proved to be timeless and has made One Up on Wall Street a number-one bestseller. And now this classic is as valuable in the new millennium as ever. From Publishers Weekly The authors argue that average investors can beat Wall Street professionals by using the information gleaned from everyday life. "Investors will be able to put the shrewd insights presented to good use," remarked PW. 200,000 first printing. Book Dimension length: (cm)20.6 　　　 　　　　　 　　　　　 width:(cm)14

★★★�暢銷50餘年，銷量突破100萬冊的經濟學入門寶典！�★★★ 本書作者赫茲利特── 堪稱二十世紀美國最偉大的經濟專欄作家，教給我們經濟學最重要的一課： 「經濟學的藝術就是：不只觀察任何行動或政策的立即影響，更要看較長遠的影響；不只追蹤政策對某個群體產生的影響，更要看對所有群體造成的影響。」 然而就在這一點上，人們，甚至是政府，常常犯錯，或者明知故犯。好經濟學和壞經濟學的分野就在這裡。壞經濟學家只看到觸目所及的事情；好經濟學家卻看得更遠。壞經濟學家只觀察計畫中的行動產生的直接結果；好經濟學家卻也放眼更長遠的間接結果。壞經濟學家只注意政策對某個特殊群體已經產生或將要產生的影響；好經濟學家還會去深究政策對所有群體產生的影響。 以這堂課為基礎，作者舉許多日常可見的實際例子，例如公共建設、課稅、授信、失業、關稅、最低工資、價格管制、工會、工資、利潤、儲蓄、通貨膨脹等等，以最淺顯的方式告訴讀者，這些複雜的經濟問題背後的真相、什麼樣的經濟政策會造成什麼樣的結果，以及，真正學會這一課經濟學。 經濟事務影響我們每一個人，本書可以幫助你更了解經濟世界運作的法則，不會再被政府或「專家」的花言巧語所矇騙。
