Customer Review: A wonderful trip through ETFs. Book is well worth the money and I am sure worth more. Yet, while I'd suggest this book for any mutual fund investor, still, the more I read in this area the more I am convinced that I'll just "keep it simple" and stick with Dodge and Cox and Vanguard Funds ("admiral"... more info

His insight and commentary have been extremely helpful in guiding me, along with his subscribers, on how to maneuver thru this volatile market minefield.
