Great intro to an otherwise complex topic September 1, 2010

Having come from a software development background, I began reading the book to spark my interest in financial investments. I didnt really know what to expect. After reading this book, I am now able to keep up with stock tickers and stock analysts on MSNBC, Bloomberg, and Fox Business. I can read WSJ and Google Finance charts without feeling like I am reading another language. I've decided to highlight my favorite parts of the book:
Speak the Language of Stocks:
This chapter alone was the best. For someone without any background in stock markets, this chapter alone is the holy grail of the book. It tells you what stocks are, where they come from, briefly how to evaluate them, and distinguishing growth/value. Like i said before, if you have no clue what stocks are, this chapter will be the most important in the book and the author does a great job explaining it.
How History Tells Us to Invest:
Being a very technical person, I found the analysis in this chapter very interesting. The author advocates the importance of P/S ratios over the popular P/E ratio. He also goes over the criteria for valuing growth stocks vs value stocks and how using both strategies can maximize returns.
The book's investment strategy is also very simple. The author supplies an abundance of research options for fundemental and technical specs you need to rank stocks. He also supplies worksheets, which can be printed from his website.
For the beginner, this book is a great intro to the market. Give it a try!
Best Investing book! August 22, 2010

Jasons books are very easy to read. Unlike some of the investing books, he actually breaks it down so anybody can understand how to interpret the stock market and individual stocks. He shows you how the pros do it, and then shows you different strategies that you can use to easily make money in the stock market. If you are a beginner or even a Stock broker yourself, read this book! Its such an easy read that I have read it three times and I learn something new everytime. I am also reading Intelligent Investor(not an easy read at all), and I use Jasons book as a reference when I am not sure what other books are trying to say.
A great combination of industry information and strategy advice! August 18, 2010

I am new to investing and was looking for a book that would explain all the acronyms and other things I've never heard about and needed to know and give strategy advice that would work for a newcomer. This book did all of that brilliantly!
The first book you should read on investing. Period. August 15, 2010

This was the first book I read on investing, and I'm glad it was. There are other equally valuable investing books out there, but none as clear and readable as The Neatest Guide. Kelly breaks down the seemingly complex world of Wall Street into layman's terms like no one I've ever seen. I'm convinced that if I had read any other book before this one, I'd have given up on the idea of investing, because I'd still be so confused. But because I read The Neatest Guide first, I was able to take the most important action in the life of any investor -- getting started.
Great Stock Investing Guide August 4, 2010

I found Jason Kelly's 2010 Edition of The Neatest Little Guide To Stock Market Investing to be an excellent guide to investing in stocks. The background chapters were practically oriented with very interesting perspectives from well known investment masters. Lots of advice on orders, broker selection, measurements, research publications tools and agencies. Also Jason discusses approaches to screening and building a portfolio. I recommend this book as a valuable guide for investing in equities.
