Picking up where Liar's Poker left off (literally, in the bond dealer's desks of Salomon Brothers) the story of Long-Term Capital Management is of a group of elite investors who believed they could beat the market and, like alchemists, create limitless wealth for themselves and their partners. Founded by John Meriweather, a notoriously confident bond dealer, along with two Nobel prize winners and a floor of Wall Street's brightest and best, Long-Term Captial Management was from the beginning hailed as a new gold standard in investing. It was to be the hedge fund to end all other hedge funds: a discreet private investment club limited to those rich enough to pony up millions. It became the banks' own favourite fund and from its inception achieved a run of dizzyingly spectacular returns. New investors barged each other aside to get their investment money into LTCM's hands. But as competitors began to mimic Meriweather's fund, he altered strategy to maintain the fund's performance, leveraging capital with credit on a scale not fully understood and never seen before. When the markets in Indonesia, South America and Russia crashed in 1998 LCTM's investments crashed with them and mountainous debts accumulated. The fund was in melt-down, and threatening to bring down into its trillion-dollar black hole a host of financial instiutions from New York to Switzerland. It's a tale of vivid characters, overwheening ambition, and perilous drama told, in Roger Lowenstein's hands, with brilliant style and panache.

这本书英文原版2000年就有了，中文版06年又重版了。但不知为什么这本书在豆瓣上没有，于是我就加上了，顺便再写点推荐的文字。 推荐这本书基于两种推荐：其一，这本书作为书写一段历史——一个公司和一群人的历史是成功的，非常好读，还把事情描述得很清楚，把枯燥的事件变成了...
评分索罗斯曾经说过，凡是人类构建的东西，都有着天然的巨大缺陷。尤其是金融市场，最易出现崩溃。这次美国次贷危机，给他的这一认识提供了最新的佐证，华尔街的最大清算银行贝尔斯登在两周内沦陷，当年每股数百美元的股价今天只能以2美元卖给了摩根，因为摩根认为他的净资产值...
评分金融/投资必读。很多老生常谈的道理，读LTCM rise and fall的真实故事更有真切感受。三个让我回味的教训： 1) Markets can stay irrational longer than you can remain solvent. 即便你能正确判断市场出错并采取行动，市场回归正确的时间可能抹平你的收益、回归正确的起伏过程...

The rise and fall of LTCM
评分哪怕是最顶尖的公司和最顶尖的大脑也无法忽视风险控制，无法逃脱人性弱点，而前者可以让后者极端放大。又一堂生动的风险控制课。。。
评分Excellent professional book about what has happened in LTCM. However I doubt they are genius or more average human, who nonetheless are controlled by their own fear and greed as well as the others. Other thing is it is again showed how modelling is diffcult for a financial market!
评分LTCM死掉了，只是历史的必然，不要过分苛责该公司的每一个管理者（除了小罗特莫顿）
