2.6.10 Bid-Ask Spreads

The difference between the price at which investors are willing to buy a security and the price at which investors are willing to sell the security is called the bid-ask spread.

A dealer who quotes a price of 99 1/8 – 99 7/8 is indicating a willingness to buy at $991.25 and sell at $998.75. The spread represents the dealer’s profit.

TESTIMONIALS

What are people saying?

I did so many practice exams with Solomon and never saw one question twice. The quality of study material is thorough, with a touch of humor, and gives it to you in many formats (visual both on the computer or in book format if you wish), as well as audio that you can listen to in the car, as well as the benefit of videos of actual lectures from professors. I felt as though getting the information in all those formats allowed me to really grasp the information using different senses and facilitated the learning process even further.

I could not be happier with Solomon Exam Prep and I am so glad I found it. I had taken this test prior and wasn't able to pass. After utilizing the Total Study Package for the Series 65, including the book, audiobook, summary videos and practice tests, I felt very confident clicking the submit button at the end of the test. I would highly recommend Solomon Exam Prep to pass your upcoming test.

I PASSED. A big thank you to Solomon Exam Prep for breaking down the material for the Series 65 exam into understandable information. I started my exam prep journey with another provider and their material was simply too wordy and full of unnecessary information. I switched to Solomon Exam Prep and the material was easy to follow and I PASSED. Thanks so much for being there for me.

I had my licenses but I let them lapse after I sold my firm. Now we're starting a new firm and I needed a refresher and studied your book and used the exam simulator. I passed the Series 65 and your materials were a big help. Now I am back for the Series 7 and I want your book, audio book and exam simulator. Thanks for an excellent product.

I passed the Series 65 this afternoon! Your online test simulation was terrific. Thanks so much!

I passed the Series 65 with a 92% thanks to the Solomon practice exams. The questions on the practice exams were very similar to what I actually encountered on the actual exam, and the ability to take unlimited practice exams really built my knowledge and confidence. I highly recommend this product to anyone studying for the Series 65.
