Anuff, Joey

• Dumb Money (with Gary Wolf)

  • This novel, by one of the founders of the very interesting daily webzine Suck, follows his humorous adventures as a day trader. He has several great moments, such as when he is about to close a quick 3-point day trade before his stock begins to bounce back down...and then the computer crashes (or when he memorizes the CNBC musical themes or scrutinizes the expressions of advice guru Joe Kernan). He also discusses some of the techniques he's tried, the emotions he swings through, his philosophy. No Big Themes here really, just an entertaining read, especially for anyone considering the day-trading, momentum-investing, chart- reading business. Will be a fantastic find on the bargain shelves.
