Great book if you need to know this stuff.......2004-02-25

I am a software developer of cash managment products so I know the stuff from the inside out, but I never had a business view of the area. This explains clearly, quickly, and readably the essentials of field. It explains the business use of all of the products I have built (ACH, Wires, Acct Trx, IR, etc.). Remarkably enough, it was really interesting and a very quick read--2 short evenings. Certainly, a great starter book.

Great Introductory Book........2002-12-15

I found this book to be a great introductory book into the world of Daytrading. And that is probably all you will ever get out of any book on Daytrading, just a few bits and pieces of useful information that you can use. Unfortunately for us, like most trading books, especially Daytrading books, it is overpriced.

Very light reading. Looking for useful info, look elseware.......2001-04-06

I found this book to be extremely light on useful information. 230 very small pages with big margins, and very few pages per chapter to use up even more space. The author, many times, will start to talk about something that makes you think, "Now this should be interesting", only to change the subject just at the point where the information could get useful. Very frustrating. Before buying any book I would seek an independent review, where you can at least be sure that the reviewer is not the writer himself.

FIVE STARS FOR BEGINNERS AND INTERMEDIATES.......2000-07-25

IN MY OPINION, WHICH IS WORTH LITTLE MORE THAN THE SERVER THAT THIS MUMBO-JUMBO IS SAVED ON, THIS IS A FANTASTIC BOOK FOR BEGINNERS AND INTERMEDIATE TRADERS, AND A WASTE OF TIME FOR PEOPLE LIKE ME WHO DECIDED TO TAKE THE EASY ROUTE TO TRADING SUCCESS (WHICH IS TAKING A BASEBALL BAT UPSIDE THE HEAD ABOUT FIFTY TIMES BEFORE I FIGURED WHAT I WAS DOING RIGHT AND WRONG IN THE MARKETS.

I HAVE BEEN TRADING FOR A WHILE, AND FOUND THAT MUCH OF THE INFO IN THIS BOOK I HAD ALREADY LEARNED BY LOSING MY *SS IN THE MARKET (OOPS)...BUT HEY, WHAT'S AN EXTRA SIXTY BUCKS FOR A BOOK AT THIS STAGE :-)

IF I HAD READ THIS BOOK A YEAR AGO, I WOULD HAVE SAVED MYSELF A NEW BMW (AND UNFORTUNATELY FOR ME IT WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN A 318I, BUT RATHER THE BIG BOAT 735...YEAH, YOU KNOW THE ONE!)

ANYHOW, I DIGRESS. THE POINT IS THAT THIS IS A VERY GOOD FIRST YEAR BOOK ON INVESTING AND ACTIVE TRADING, AND OF LITTLE USE FOR THE WAR-BATTERED TRADER.

IF YOU NOT YET A SEASONED VETERAN, BUY THE BOOK AND READ IT TEN TIMES. IF YOU ARE ON YOUR SECOND TOUR, SKIP THIS ONE AND READ BOTH OF JACK SCHWAGER'S BOOKS.

HOPE THESE WORDS FROM A SARCASTIC OLD PISSER LIKE ME HELPS.

The Only Review You Need to Read.......2000-05-03

I will begin by saying that just a few days ago, I was sitting here reading these book reviews just like you. This book is hyped everywhere so I decided to buy it. Unfortunately, I thought that if it sells for $60+, there must be some kind of demand for it. Well I received the book today and I already finished reading the whole thing! The book is EXTREMELY short (the print is large too) and each chapter is about 3 pages long. I don't want to bash this book, because it is a good overview for an absolute beginner. However, if you're already a fairly experienced daytrader looking to learn more, this book is not for you. The book isn't even really for daytraders.. it is just a basic overview of trading stocks in general. If you just opened up a trading account yesterday, you might find the book useful, but I'm returning it.

Excellent book for beginners and intermediates.......1999-12-11

This is a five star must read for people who have been actively trading for less than a year. It is a real blueprint for learning the dos and don'ts of this profession.

a great book.......2001-02-24

Jack Bernstein is just brilliant. His forecast of Y2K market crash and rising energy price were just plain accurate. This is the same man predicted crash of Japanese Nikkie in late 80s. His prediction are largely derived from historical data and facts. Very thorough and methodical analysis. It is a must read for every traders and investors. I wished I have read this book in 1999 and could have saved me tons of money.

For Jake Bernstein, the millennium is bad news. The stock market will crash, panic will ensue, and today's paper millionaires will become tomorrow's paupers. In Beat the Millennium Crash, Bernstein, a noted futures trader whose previous books include The Compleat Day Trader and How the Futures Markets Work, sees a confluence of trends and patterns that will culminate in a dramatic stock market panic that could be triggered by problems associated with the Y2K bug.

At the heart of Bernstein's argument is the idea that interest rates determine the direction of the stock market and overall economic activity. He believes rates are approaching a 54-year bottom, and that "there is no reason to believe that the patterns in interest rates have changed or that the market has ceased to be cyclical." Rising rates will cripple the current bull market, and investments that are out of favor today, such as precious metals, will be one way to profit in this gloomy environment. While Bernstein doesn't think that we'll all turn into pumpkins at midnight on New Year's Eve, he does see the end to the current stock market party happening by 2004. Bernstein particularly likes gold as a hedge to this bearish scenario as well as a healthy amount of cash. No one likes a party pooper or a contrarian, but his advice just might profit those who listen. --Harry C. Edwards

Book Description

From an international authority on futures trading, a provocative look at the stock market of tomorrow with comprehensive strategies for financial protection and continued prosperity

Is a stock market crash imminent? Jake Bernstein, hailed by Futures Magazine as one of the best at putting together the emotions and mechanics of trading, believes the answer is clear: A dramatic decline in world stock markets is coming soon. With a decisively bearish outlook, he gives investors the crucial insights needed to anticipate the inevitable and act in advance, rather than react in panic when the financial bomb drops.

Will money managers get caught with their cash reserves down? Will the new breed of paper millionaires become extinct? Will The Fed sharply raise interest rates? Will economies around the world collapse? BEAT THE MILLENNIUM CRASH tackles these difficult questions and more. Tracking market behavior over time, Bernstein provides a logical framework for evaluating economic trends. Highlighting the warning signs of a market top, he offers practical advice to help investors prepare--psychologically as well as financially. While exploring the impact of a significant market bust on mutual funds, pensions, and real estate, Bernstein offers lucrative alternatives, including gold. With the author's winning strategies, readers can create a protective investment plan--with the power to keep making money.

Controversial yet vital, BEAT THE MILLENNIUM CRASH urges all investors to face the impending financial disaster now-and take action to protect their future.

In a word... Superb!.......1999-09-10

Extremely thorough on the subject matter. Easy reading but full of a wealth, (no pun intended), of information. A must "read" for everyone, even "non-investors". This cleared up any misconceptions and filled the cracks of all the "rhetoric". Thanks Jake - Todd

Many facets of practical advice.......1999-08-25

Cool Book, buy it. Not just sound financial strategys but advice on Y2K, retaining your money through dodgey periods and investing within your monetary and risk limit.

Ths book will help you in heaps of ways, not just dollars.

An Informative easy to read book!.......1999-08-24

Mr Bernsteins book answered many of my questions. This book was easy to read and hard to put down. I dont think it is a doom and gloom book..It is a well written book and very informative. I feel I will be prepared if there are any problems with the Y2K. I recommend this book to everyone..

More worhtless rhetoric from another doom and gloomer.......1999-07-25

Don't waste your money on this book. This guy has been preaching the proverbial doom and gloom scenario to anyone who will listen for as long as I can remember. His "financial meltdown" hyperbole is a complete scam, and the only thing that will suffer a crisis is this guy's reputation.

Read this and heed:.......1999-07-22

With his usual innate common sense, ( a rare commodity in itself ), Jake Bernstein calmly analyzes the millennium market and offers some surprising predictions, along with quite a few sound assessments, and outlines what actions are needed to be taken by today's astute investor. It's the wise one who will read, absorb and note the reality of these possible trends in this unique market. Some of the news may seem unflinchingly bad, but taken like that *spoonful of medicine*, and acted upon, fortunes instead of losses may be made. Read it and heed ... and thanks, Jake Bernstein, for another classic bit of analysis. Many will be indebted to you for the uncanny foresight in the pages of "Beat The Millennium Crash".

If I'd only read it three years ago!!.......2002-01-03

This is a great book. If I'd read it three years ago when it first came out, I'd be very wealthy today. However, I did just the OPPOSITE of what this book said to do, thus, I lost a lot. Robert Logan's book, is a great learning tool. It is concise, to the point, and very prophetic. Here we are in the midst of one the worse recessions in history, and one of the worse bear markets in history, and Logan saw it coming 3 years go. Great book!! I wish he'd write another one about the NEXT 3 years (2002-2005).
