Relative Dividend Yield: Common Stock Investing For Income And Appreciation, second edition (248 pages, $59.95 hardcover, 1999, ISBN 0471327050), by Anthony E. Spare with Paul Ciotti, published by John Wiley & Sons.

There is one market philosophy that can reward you with higher-than-market returns at less-than-market risk. The relative dividend yield (RDY) buy-sell discipline is a little-known but well-respected strategy that thousands of investors and corporations have used. They base their financial decisions on the reliable principle of historical yields. This book covers all aspects of investing and money management, while providing you with advice you need to calmly navigate the rough waters of investing.

Dow 100,000: Fact Or Fiction? (295 pages, $25 hardcover, 1999, ISBN 0735201374), by Charles W. Kadlec with a foreword by Ralph J. Acampora, published by New York Institute of Finance. In the 17 years between 1965 and 1982, the Dow Jones Industrial Average did not go up at all. In the next 17 years, between 1982 and 1999, the DJIA increased tenfold. What will the market do over the next 20 years? The author thinks the bull market will continue, and makes a remarkably persuasive case for his daring forecast. His forecast allows for periodic market corrections and reflects a robust but attainable 11.1% rate of advance. He offers concrete strategies for building or accumulating wealth, as well as managing a pool of assets as a source of income over time.
