The authors answer questions such as: What are shares and gilts? What are futures and options? Where and how can you buy shares? How do you pick a share to buy? With new material on complex derivatives, foreign shares, and Internet trading, this book explains the full inter-relationships between the stock market, banks, brokers, and regulators., Some people might see the current recession as the very worst time to invest in the stock market, but many of the world's most successful investors insist that a market downturn is the very moment when people should be investing."How the Stock Market Works" will tell investors what is being traded and how, who does what and to whom, and how to evaluate both the shares and proponents' claims about them.

But many of the world's most successful investors will insist that a market downturn is the very moment when people should be investing. Given the wealth of material available, how can you strip away the hype, unlock the jargon and demystify the workings of the City as well as the global financial markets? How the Stock Market Works will tell investors, both existing and potential, what is being traded and how, who does what with which and to whom, and how to evaluate both the shares and the proponents' claims. With brand new material on the more complex derivatives, foreign shares and the use of the Internet in trading, the authors provide a fresh and lucid perspective on an increasingly turbulent market sector, explaining the full inter-relationships between the stock market, the banks, brokers and the regulators. Despite the credit crunch and a global recession, there is still money to be made.
