Are high Dividend Yield, low Price / Earnings (P/E) ratio, and low Price / Earnings to Growth (PEG) ratio good indicators of future share price performance -- as conventional wisdom would suggest? Did high yield stocks (the Yield Stars) perform much better than low yield stocks (the Yield Dogs) in recent years? Did low P/E stocks (the P/E Stars) perform much better than high P/E stocks (the P/E Dogs)? What about PEG Stars vs. PEG Dogs? In this book I put company fundamentals on trial, using real historic data and specially annotated charts as evidence. In weighing up the evidence I consider whether the buy-and-hold investor had any advantage over the market timer, and whether stock picking would have been more effective than index investing. “Great book for traders. The research is outstanding and spot-on” – Jason Starzec, NoStressTrading.com Online resources at www.lotontech.com/ontrial

Have you heard about compers? I mean those people who enter every competition they can find, on the basis that “You’ve got to be in it to win it”. Those people who, in some cases, do nothing but enter competitions. They don’t work a regular job. They win stuff, they sell it. I was a little sceptical about this. Could someone really treat competition winning as a kind of occupation, or at least as a supplementary income? Then I tried it. I discovered that it is possible to create a steady stream of wins, so that you can: * Receive surprise treats that you wouldn’t otherwise buy, or couldn’t otherwise afford. * Go places you’ve never been – to see shows, or on holiday. * Generate a handy second income, by selling your unwanted prizes. * Do all this while having fun doing puzzles, playing games, and answering quiz questions on the web. You might even Win Your Way to Wealth!
