Contraportada

"Professor Philip Cheng is familiar with both the academic theory of investment and the real world of decision making. His book Taming the Money Sharks comprises a wealth of do's and don'ts for the individual investor to follow. Not even Professor Cheng can guarantee unlimited investment success, but the reader who follows the advice in this book will surely avoid making fundamental errors in managing his own investments. Taming the Money Sharks should be compulsory reading for all those who wish to invest rather than merely save money."
--STUART LECKIE, OBE, JP, Chairman, Stirling Finance

"Philip Cheng provides a valuable service. Taming the Money Sharks does not condescend or tell people to leave investments to a 'professional.' Instead, he teaches people how to build on their own knowledge to trade stocks successfully, providing plenty of tips and real-life examples along the way. This is a useful book for people determined to take charge of their own investments."
--JAME DiBIASIO, Editorial Director, AsianInvestor

"In the aftermath of the global financial crisis, it is essential that investors become better educated. In fact, this is one of the goals set by the G20 in terms of 'investor education and protection.' Sadly, not much progress seems to have been made so far. Taming the Money Sharks uses simple language and simple examples to explain how the markets work and makes them accessible to all. Philip's book can equip investors with some commonsense notions that seem to be so sorely lacking."
--VERONIQUE A. LAFON-VINAIS, Associate Director, Center for Asian Financial Markets; Adjunct Associate Professor, Department of Finance, HKUST

Down-to-earth strategies guaranteed to make you "shark-proof" while optimizing your investment returns

There are lots of books out there offering sure-fire formulas, fool-proof systems, and can't-lose schemes for making a killing in the stock market. What makes this book different is that it was written by a top investment professional with no interest other than to give the "little guy" a chance to realize his or her financial goals over time through prudent stock investing.

A Chief Investment Officer who, over the course of his long and distinguished career, has had as much as US$2 billion under management, author Philip Cheng knows all the tricks and games that the Big Boys play. In Taming the Money Sharks he distils a lifetime's experience into a set of 8 simple rules of the road that will help you steer clear of potential investing hazards (and the money sharks).
