V.15:13 (588): Quick Scans: What Works on Wall Street- The Software by John Sweeney

What Works on Wall Street - The Software (James P. O'Shaughnessy) by John Sweeney

Jim O’Shaughnessy just keeps coming at you. First there was the book (What Works on Wall Street, McGraw-Hill), then the interview (STOCKS & COM-MODITIES, November 1996) and the talk shows, and now there’s What Works on Wall Street — The Software. Not content with telling you what investment strategies have enjoyed success in the past, O’Shaughnessy’s had all those strategies considered in his book codified on disk and, for less than $50, you can load them on your computer for efficient exploration. (The professional version, we’re told, includes history of the “dogs of the Dow,” which, despite what you may think, refers to top performers.)
