A complete guide to the ins and outs of short selling in terms that all investors can understand, this latest addition to McGraw-Hill's popular Streetsmart series explains:

Rather, the goal of the book is to give you the tools to be a successful short seller--in any market."--From the Introduction

The Streetsmart Guide to Short Selling reviews everything you need to know to sell short with confidence.

This comprehensive book even provides an in-depth primer for understanding what's really being reported in balance sheets, income statements, and cash flow statements.
