Description of Fire Your Stock Analyst
This is simply the world's most useful book for personal investors who want to rely less on the so-called "experts" and more on their own intelligence and knowledge.

In Fire Your Stock Analyst!, a San Francisco Chronicle investment columnist presents systematic value and growth, strategies that draw on the best ideas from more than 20 of the world's leading money managers - and shows you how to implement each strategy step-by-step, using free or low-cost information available on the Internet. Domash introduces never-before-published advanced analysis strategies, shows how value investors really pick stocks, and presents new ways of quantifying a stock's risk (and avoiding the next Enron)!

This book covers issues most books simply ignore, including how to evaluate a company's business plan and true financial strength, how to set your own target prices, and most important, when to sell. Endorsements from some of the best known analysts in the business, including:

- Victor Niederhoffer, author of The Education of a Speculator; David Edwards, analyst with Heron Capital Management

- Charles Mulford, author of The Financial Numbers Game; Nicholas Gerber, analyst with Ameristock Funds

- Richard Driehaus, Driehaus Capital Management, Inc. (named in Barron's "All-Century" team of 25 individuals most influential in the mutual fund industry over the past 100 years).
