description: Share dealing has come of age for the ordinary man and woman. Saturation advertising of privatization issues, the rise of employee share ownership schemes, the introduction of tax-free Personal Equity Plans and the City's Big Bang have helped revolutionize the prospects for individual share ownership in Britain. The dramatic share slump of October 1987, however, vividly demonstrated that there are hazards for the unwary in the share jungle. This book, a revised and updated edition, exposes the strategies and myths behind share dealing giving practical advice on how the market works and how to buy and sell shares successfully. Walters includes discussion on how to spot what counts in company accounts, how to cash in on new issues, how to talk to stockbrokers and how to learn what counts in the economy. He also looks at the Crash, pinpoints its causes and reveals his tips for avoiding unwise investment. Michael Walters is author of three investment "How to Make a Killing in New Issues", "How to Make a Killing From Penny Shares" and "How to Profit From Your Personal Equity Plan".
