Rating: 5 / 5
The book presents a good, focused, 90 page overview of investing in Preferred Shares. The focus is appropriately narrow, so 90 pages does it well. It has more depth than a Investing for Dummies book but less depth than a finance textbook. The author gets to the point. The author’s approach is well balanced and this book is NOT an advocating piece. It synthesizes what I knew before reading the book well and made some good points that I otherwise would not have thought of. The author is plainly spoken, and I appreciated that. This book is not intended for short-term or day traders. For that topic,the author directs his readers to Ken Winan’s book, Preferred. This author is not a fan of short-term trading preferred shares.
