Book by Slifer, Stephen D., Carnes, W. Stansbury
What do savvy investors know about economic indicators? They know that this information moves markets. And knowing how and when the market will move is the key to trading success.
With By the Numbers: A Survival Guide to Economic Indicators, the authors have compiled an authoritative text on how the key indicators work, what effect indicators have on the markets, and how to interpret the reactions of financial markets to economic news.
In addition to skillful explanations of the indicators, the authors also cover fixed-weight GDP, and the impact of Federal Reserve policy and operations, interest rates, corporate profits, inflation, and the dollar on the economy.
