The UK Stock Market Almanac by Stephen Eckett
The Almanac is a unique reference work providing traders and investors with the data to tackle the markets in the year ahead. The main section consists of a 52-week diary, supplemented with articles, facts, figures and trivia unique to the Almanac. This is an extremely valuable and massively informative companion to the financial year making the Almanac the one essential book for the serious trader or investor. Essentially two books in one, the Almanac consists of: 2013 Financial diary - A 52-week, one week per page, diary. Each page of the diary includes key financial dates including: important economic releases, derivative contract expiries, exchange holidays, and company results expected that week. The pages also feature the results of a unique study including the historic performance of the market for each day and week of the year. Seasonality research - Each page of the diary is accompanied by an original, informative and entertaining article. These cover studies of trends and anomalies, including seasonality analysis, momentum effects, sector performance, arbitrage opportunities, FTSE index reviews, the enduring - and extraordinary - six-month effect, as well as the results of some more unusual research. Market Reference - A mammoth collection of reference information on the UK stock market. Topics covered include basic facts about the market, trade codes, a timetable of the trading day and, exclusive to the Almanac, weekly and daily market performance analysis data - the Sinclair Numbers.
