Description: "This book discusses the role that trading theses (or prevailing beliefs about market relationships), market conditions, and sentiment play in determining how prices react and sometimes overreact to various trading catalysts over time. Trading Catalysts will help readers anticipate potential events that could spark rallies or breaks; predict situations with feedback loops that drive markets up or down; and identify situations where substantial overreactions are likely to occur."--BOOK JACKET.
