Description: Understanding Company News : How to Interpret Stock Market Announcements, Paperback by Hobson, Rodney, ISBN 1906659222, ISBN-13 9781906659226, Brand New, Free shipping in the US This book looks at company announcements, focussing on those issued through the London Stock Exchange by listed companies. Almost all these announcements - such as annual results, share buying by directors, profit warnings and updates on current trading - are required under stock exchange rules or European Union directives. This book explains these rules and shows how to make sense of the announcements; enabling investors and others to take informed decisions. Th is packed full of actual stock market announcements illustrating each point and detailed analysis showing the important data that can be obtained from this potentially rich source of information. Section A looks at what the rules are, why they have been imposed and how they have evolved to give private investors a much fairer opportunity of competing with professional investors. Section B lists and explains the routine statements that all companies issue on a regular basis: trading statements and profit figures. It tells readers what to look for, explains company jargon and shows how to read between the lines when all is not as well as it seems. Section C considers important announcements, such as profit warnings and directors' share dealings, that are issued on an irregular basis as they arise. It explains which announcements are likely to affect the share price and why. Understanding Company News is for all those baffled shareholders who throw communications from their companies straight into the bin and for those investors who read company pronouncements but perhaps naively take everything they see at face value. And anyone working in related industries looking to untangle these company announcements will also find this book extremely valuable.
