Summary: "Extensively revised to reflect the dramatic shifts and consolidation of the financial markets, the seventh edition of this classic guide illuminates a complex world that even those who work in it often find hard to understand. With chapters on markets in money, foreign exchange, equities, bonds, commodities, financial futures, options and other derivatives, the Guide to Financial Markets looks at why these markets exist, how they work and who trades in them, and gives a rundown of the factors that affect prices and rates. Business history is littered with disasters that occurred because firms and individual investors purchased financial instruments they didn't properly grasp. For anyone who needs a serious understanding of the financial markets, there is no better guide." -- Provided by publisher
