Stock Market Knowledge for All Ages: Answering Questions about Stocks, Bonds, and Mutual Funds

Ever listen to stories on the news and think things like: What is the S & P? (I used to think it was Essen P.) What is a spread? Where did Wall Street get its name? This handy little book answers these and hundreds more questions about the stock market and how it works. Not an introductory business text, this is more a quickie reference guide that gives definitions to business phrases commonly heard on the news and in commercials. It is full of cute, colorful illustrations, but unfortunately they do not enhance the explanations of the concepts. If you are looking for help with financial education, you should check out nefe.org
