Download or read book How Money Is Made in Security Investments written by Henry Hall and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-05-22 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is encouraging to note the number of recent publications, both in book and magazine form, devoted to the subject of the market for securities, and to observe in them a definite effort to put trading in stocks and bonds on a strictly scientific basis. The sooner a general impression is created that money is made in security investments not by any hit and miss method, not by being "on the inside," and not by any mechanical chart, but only by careful study of intrinsic values and economic conditions, the better it will be for the managers of railroad and other corporate enterprises depending on public subscriptions to capital. For this reason it is a pleasure to commend the book of Mr. Hall, which is well calculated to create an intelligent judgment on the subject of stock and bond values. The book has already aroused considerable interest because of its sub-title, "A Fortune at Fifty-Five," and the comment has been, on the whole, favorable to the author's argument. This argument it is impossible to state with fairness in the small space of a review, and the temptation is strong to make liberal quotations from the many good things in the book in order the better to make clear what Mr. Hall has to say. Let it suffice to quote: "With reference to taking risks in stocks, the great objection is that many persons incur them without the slightest knowledge of Wall Street history or methods. With legitimate business as a means of livelihood, with close study of underlying factors, infinite patience and conservative methods, an investment in stocks should be profitable in nine cases out of ten.'' The volume is therefore devoted to setting forth as fully as possible the points to be watched by the man who has invested his funds in securities. It is worth noting in passing that Mr. Hall treats not of margin speculation, but of actual purchases of securities outright; and when he is able to show that $1,000 worth of investment purchases of various railroad stocks in 1870, mentioning specifically New York Central, Illinois Central, Union Pacific, St. Paul, Lackawanna and Jersey Central, would have grown in value by 1905 to from $170,000 to $6,000,000, according to the stock selected, if reasonable advantage had been taken of the big swings of the market, this point is well taken. The man who follows carefully the information given by Mr. Hall may become overcautious in his stock transactions, but he will not lose money. -The Railway World, Volume 50 [1906]

Download or read book Railway Security written by Richard R. Young and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-07-31 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an overview and assessment of the security risks, both manmade and natural, facing the railways and rail networks. Railroads face significant threats from disasters, but with situational awareness and coordinated effort these can often be substantially minimized. Transportation assets have always been vulnerable to natural disasters, but in the current environment these assets are also a preferred target of human-caused disruption, especially in the form of terrorism, as the events in many other parts of the world have underscored. Railways are not a homogeneous mode of transportation given their various roles in intercity and commuter passenger movement, as well as being a major portion of the freight ton-miles upon which the U.S. economy is highly dependent. Designed to provide advice for railway owners and first responders, this text discusses how to secure hazardous material transport and how to establish guidelines for rail freight operations and rail passenger operations. The book aims to develop an understanding of the unique operating characteristics of railways, the nature and the range of vulnerabilities, the present means for protecting the infrastructure, and the public policy initiatives that are prerequisite for developing a comprehensive appreciation of the magnitude of this issue. The book utilizes case studies of transport disasters to illustrate lessons learned and to provide critical insight into preventative measures. This book will be of great interest to students and practitioners of transportation, technology and engineering, and security management.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive monograph addresses crucial issues in the protection of railway systems, with the objective of enhancing the understanding of railway infrastructure security. Based on analyses by academics, technology providers and railway operators, it explains how to assess terrorist and criminal threats, design countermeasures, and implement effective security strategies. In so doing, it draws upon a range of experiences from different countries in Europe and beyond. The book is the first to be devoted entirely to this subject. It will serve as a timely reminder of the attractiveness of the railway infrastructure system as a target for criminals and terrorists and, more importantly, as a valuable resource for stakeholders and professionals in the railway security field aiming to develop effective security based on a mix of methodological, technological and organizational tools. Besides researchers and decision makers in the field, the book will appeal to students interested in critical infrastructure protection.

Download or read book China's High-Speed Rail Development written by Martha Lawrence and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2019-06-24 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past decade, China has built 25,000 km of dedicated highspeed railway—more than the rest of the world combined. What can we learn from this remarkable experience? China’s High-Speed Rail Development examines the Chinese experience to draw lessons for countries considering investing in high-speed rail. The report scrutinizes the planning and delivery mechanisms that enabled the rapid construction of the high-speed rail system. It highlights the role of long-term planning, consistent plan execution, and a joint venture structure that ensures active participation of provincial and local governments in project planning and financing. Traffic on China’s high-speed trains has grown to 1.7 billion passengers a year. The study examines the characteristics of the markets for which high-speed rail is competitive in China. It discusses the pricing and service design considerations that go into making high-speed rail services competitive with other modes and factors such as good urban connectivity that make the service attractive to customers. One of the most remarkable aspects of the Chinese experience is the rapid pace of high-quality construction. The report looks at the role of strong capacity development within and cooperation among China Railway Corporation, rail manufacturers, universities, research institutions, laboratories, and engineering centers that allowed for rapid technological advancement and localization of technology. It describes the project delivery structures and incentives for delivering quality and timely results. Finally, the report analyzes the financial and economic sustainability of the investment in high-speed rail. It finds that a developing country can price high-speed rail services affordably and still achieve financial viability, but this requires very high passenger density. Economic viability similarly depends on high passenger density.
