Investments: Principles Of Portfolio And Equity Analysis Paperback – January 1, 2015

Great book for those who wanted to go for CFA exams

For the most part, this looks like a standard investment text. The major topics for a course on investments is covered. To be fair, any investment text you get from the past decade or two will likely have most of the same major topics. It is well-written and well-organized, which is helpful.In my opinion, there are two areas that this text adds value. First, the discussion on technical analysis is very good. Second, since this book has a 2011 copyright, some of the data is updated relative to older texts. This latter is my main reason for getting new finance texts.Therefore, if you are a finance newbie, you will benefit from this text. However, for intermediate or advanced finance students, you will likely have read other texts that cover pretty much the same topics. In my opinion, unless those texts are old (i.e., the data and research presented are dated), you likely don't need to consider getting this text or any other text on investments for that matter.

Great BOok. purchased for a class. I will keep it for my personal Collection.

I bought this book for my investment class, the book is very good. The content is well organized and issues are illustrated explicitly.

The quality of the book is very poor. Some pages are even not cut. Don't buy it.

great condition

It's just a hard read.

excellent

page quality could have been better.

Bought this for a university course - very good book! Explanations are very lucid and easy to follow and the text is unequivocal, which in a finance textbook a deal-breaker for me!

Poor quality book. The writing on some pages (containing formulas) are extremely faded.
