Customer Reviews

Excellent advice and excellent predictor of the 90's

This book offers great investing advice as well as a historic recap of past events. I never realized I was a contrarian myself until I read this book.Reading it in 1999 I can only wish I had read it in 1990 as it predicted many of the decade's economic events: low inflation and budget surpluses.Even though it predicts the Dow at 4000-5000 by New Years's Eve 2000, who would have thought the Dow would be at 11,000+?The investing tips this book provides are timeless and once you start reading this book you can not stop. I wish this author would write a book about the next millennium, I'd be the first one to buy it.

Great book on contrary investing!

Richard Band's books on contrary investing are a must for anyone who understands that trading agasint the crowd is what leads to winning trades. I highly recommend this book! Mitchell Holland, Author "The Master Trader" http://www.trillions.com/
