About the Author:

Ken Stern -- Ken Stern is a self-employed financial analyst, bestselling author, newspaper columnist, and popular lecturer. Stern frequents such national media avenues as The Today Show, CNN, CNBC, and The View. In addition, he is the financial editor for Fox TV and the host of his own radio show.

From Booklist:

One of the first titles to arise from the ashes of the stock market, CFP-financial analyst Stern's book is based on personal experience. He boils down the fundamentals of investing into nuggets of easy-to-grasp information. One example is a simple yet thorough explanation of the economy and the business cycle, along with key indicators. Another is his stock-picking tips, from comparisons (the right way) to classic mistakes. Yet another is information on spotting the trends, accompanied by checklists and a few stellar recommendations. He's quick to add two caveats: he advocates disciplined investing (e.g., review holdings once a month), and he insists that no one individual, no one company, can predict with 100 percent accuracy the inevitability of a recession or business contraction. Written with humility and humor--a rare combination. Barbara Jacobs
