About this title

Review:

To make sense of the markets, Use the News. Virtually every American tuned into the stock market during the past few years is plugged into CNBC, and virtually everyone plugged into CNBC is familiar with Maria Bartiromo. Striking, articulate, and always at the centre of the cable station's Wall Street action, Bartiromo has become a welcome source of fiscal authority through incisive but accessible daily appearances that stretch from the early morning Squawk Box show to late afternoon's Market Wrap. Many viewers may think that her take on each day's events, and subsequent long-range perspective based upon them, are derived from years of academic study and exclusive inside tips. But that's just not so, Bartiromo argues in Use the News before setting out to show how average investors can also separate the "noise" (empty buzz) from the "news" (important information) and help guide themselves to more profitable portfolios. In clear prose--like the direct language she employs on TV--Bartiromo shares the ideas and expertise of some of the Street's top executives, money managers and analysts, explains how the markets and financial news machines really work, and describes effective ways anyone can gather and assess relevant data. "In this book I'll expand on what I already do in my broadcasts: namely, level the playing field so that individual investors have the same information, understanding and chances of success as the professionals," she writes. Fans, and even non-fans, should enjoy it. --Howard Rothman
