Equity Research for the Technology Investor by Sundeep Bajikar Pdf

This book describes an equity research approach which combines principles of value investing with domain specific expertise in the technology industry. The book also provides an overview of the financial services industry and the different types of conflicts of interest that drive market participants toward objectives that may not be aligned with those of the individual investor. The book describes an equity research process that I have followed throughout my career as a financial analyst, and shows that equity research is difficult not just for the technical skills involved but also due to behavioral issues that one has to deal with quite frequently when it comes to investing. Equity Research takes a lot of work - much more than an individual investor is likely to be able to commit given that her main profession is probably something other than investing. A central message of the book is for the individual investor to find an independent investment manager who she can trust to pursue an investment strategy that is aligned with her goals.

Investing in the Technologies of Tomorrow by Gregory Georgiou Pdf

"Virtual Reality, genetic engineering, high definition television. What were once science fiction are now today's reality, and could well be tomorrow's greatest investment opportunities." "Investing in the Technologies of Tomorrow spotlights the technologies which will change the way we live in the 21st century and identifies the companies which will bring these technologies to fruition. This fascinating book discusses the money making potential for each technology and provides investors with the tools to select the companies destined to become the Apple Computers and Microsofts of the 21st century." "According to the U.S. government, the domestic market for emerging technologies will hit $350 billion in annual sales by the end of the century while the world market will approach $1 TRILLION. Indeed, emerging technologies are important because they could very well determine who wins and who loses the battle for global economic dominance in the 21st century." "For investors who pick the next technological winners, the rewards will be enormous. Just look at the huge stock price gains in many technology companies in recent years: Genentech up 361% in 16 months; Digital Equipment up 917% in 37 months and Wang Labs up 1543% in 34 months. Clearly high tech means high profits." "But investing in the Technologies of Tomorrow is far more than an investment book. It is a compelling vision of how technology will change our lives in the 21st century. Consider some of the possibilities: floating trains that move as fast as airplanes, tiny robots that are injected in patients to perform surgeries, virtual reality machines that can simulate any human experience ranging from space travel to sex." "With each technology this book explains the challenges to achieve widespread commercialization. Most importantly, author Gregory Georgiou, an award winning financial journalist, pinpoints the companies investors should watch." "Right now there are dozens of small publicly held companies working on breakthrough technologies. Although not every company will hit it big, undoubtedly there will be some huge successes. Somewhere out there hides the next AT&T or Microsoft." "Technology is the greatest force for change in our lives. Whether you are an investor looking for opportunities or whether you simply want to understand the mysteries of the 21st century, Investing in the Technologies of Tomorrow will surpass your expectations." "It is superbly written glimpse into the future."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved

Time Horizons and Technology Investments by National Academy of Engineering,Committee on Time Horizons and Technology Investments Pdf

It is frequently argued that U.S. corporations have shorter time horizons for planning and investment than their Japanese and German competitors. This argument, though widely accepted in studies of U.S. competitiveness, has rarely been examined in depth. Time Horizons and Technology Investments explores the evidence that some U.S. corporations consistently select projects biased toward short-term return and addresses factors influencing the time-related preferences of U.S. corporate managers in selecting projects for investment. It makes recommendations to policymakers and managers about policies to mitigate negative external influences and about strategies to remove internal biases toward noncompetitive decisions.

FutureWealth by Francis McInerney,Sean White Pdf

The American economy has been turned upside down during the past decade in one of the most tumultuous economic revolutions in world history. The result: the United States has put more distance between itself and its commercial rivals than anyone imagined possible. Annual growth in the U.S. economy matches the size of whole countries. The Dow Jones Industrial Average has reached once-unthinkable heights. Three-quarters of the world's top fifty companies are now American. In FutureWealth, a superbly researched book, the authors provide a startling new way of looking at America's success. The reason for our exceptional performance is the breathtaking pace at which U.S. companies today substitute information for all other resources at their disposal. The authors explore major companies that have substituted information throughout their operations. They also show how the results have been dramatic in those companies' expanded bottom lines and rising stock valuations-- and how investors can both learn and profit from the information revolution around us. FutureWealth is a landmark book and a very timely read for investors, managers, and policy makers the world over.
