Résumé

A dynamic, equity-style approach to investing in today's bond market
Bond investing can be every bit as exciting and profitable as "playing the stock market." The Strategic Bond Investor is the first book to approach fixed-income investing from an equity-style perspective. This fast-paced book provides readers with helpful tips, tools, and strategies for tracking market sentiment, spotting market extremes, analyzing volume and liquidity, and dozens of other techniques that were up until now limited primarily to the equity markets.
The Strategic Bond Investor reveals a dramatic new approach for using bonds to balance portfolios while grabbing profit opportunities as they present themselves. It represents a new style of bond investing, bold yet risk-conscious, that is long overdue for today's transformed market environment. Investors looking to diversify their portfolios will discover:
