Marcus Padley: Stock Market Stories' is a book for the current financial climate.

With global market scrumbling, and many of the world's leading markets entering into depression - the likes of which we've never experienced before - the time is ripe for a straight-shooting approach to money, wealth and investment.

Since 1998 Marcus Padley has been writing about the stockmarket with the interests of the private investor at heart.

Revealing investment strategies and secrets, this book teaches you everything you need to know to trade in the stock market for the short term, and how to invest for the long term.

This book is a collection of Marcus' articles from his subscription-only website, marcustoday.com.au. Written in a straight-talking style, and punctuated with tips and humour, you'll discover productive critiques, trading ideas and financial strategies you can trust.

The focus is on educating you - telling you why the market is behaving the way it is - so that you can be confident in making decisions that suit your own investment profile.

It's both entertaining and informative, and above all, constructive.
