Contents: "Not Heard on the Street," is a dictionary of what your broker never wants you to know--a key to translating what he says to what he really means. It's a glossary of Wall Street's formidable language, presented in a semantics that is, in every sense and syllable, the author's own. In reading "Not Heard on the Street," you will discover the real meanings of such terms as: - Alligator Spread: Losing your Izod in the options market. - Advisory Service: Having Ann Landers pick your stocks. Fiduciary: A relationship of trust that is violated only when the trustees think they can get away with it. -- This 1986 title is dated in every respect. The book is suppose to be humorous but it comes off very childish. This would make a great gag gift but would be of no value in a serious trader's library. (Sorry Maurice).
