Duncan on Investment and Speculation in Stocks and Shares

March 17, 2010

INTRODUCTION

IN presenting this work to the public our object has been to explain the technicalities of the Stock Exchange, and to clear up such difficulties as have hitherto lain in the paths of inexperienced investors.

We show the principles upon which a capitalist, large or small, can obtain the highest return for his money, and point out the comparative risks he runs in investments of various qualities.

Without expressing our own views or indicating any particular securities as suitable for investment, we have endeavoured to place a capitalist in the position to judge for himself and employ his money according to his means, his requirements and his intelligence. We hope we have succeeded.
