The Math Behind Wall Street · How the Market Works and How to Make It Work for You

In The Math Behind Wall Street, Nick Teebagy speaks intelligently to investors at all levels of experience. A mathematician, Teebagy begins by exploring key terms ranging from statistics and probability to covariance and correlation, and then connects them to the way the stock market actually works. The book builds on each lesson to reinforce general knowledge and prepare the reader for more challenging ideas. As investors increasingly understand how to deal with concepts such as uncertainty and standard deviations, the numbers become less intimidating and Wall Street loses its menace. This book can help investors and advisors make smart decisions and minimize their risk.
