The #1 New York Times bestseller: a brilliant account—character-rich and darkly humorous—of how the U.S. economy was driven over the cliff. When the crash of the U. S. stock market became public knowledge in the fall of 2008, it was already old news. The real crash, the silent crash, had taken place over the previous year, in bizarre feeder markets where the sun doesn’t shine, and the SEC doesn’t dare, or bother, to tread: the bond and real estate derivative markets where geeks invent impenetrable securities to profit from the misery of lower- and middle-class Americans who can’t pay their debts. The smart people who understood what was or might be happening were paralyzed by hope and fear; in any case, they weren’t talking.
The crucial question is this: Who understood the risk inherent in the assumption of ever-rising real estate prices, a risk compounded daily by the creation of those arcane, artificial securities loosely based on piles of doubtful mortgages? Michael Lewis turns the inquiry on its head to create a fresh, character-driven narrative brimming with indignation and dark humor, a fitting sequel to his #1 best-selling Liar’s Poker . Who got it right? he asks. Who saw the real estate market for the black hole it would become, and eventually made billions of dollars from that perception? And what qualities of character made those few persist when their peers and colleagues dismissed them as Chicken Littles? Out of this handful of unlikely—really unlikely—heroes, Lewis fashions a story as compelling and unusual as any of his earlier bestsellers, proving yet again that he is the finest and funniest chronicler of our times.
这本书和《史上最伟大的交易》都是描述空头是如何艰难地从美国次贷危机中获取大把利润。 首先,看到第十二页译者将Arthur Anderson翻译成阿瑟 安德森,深感失望,这可是当年赫赫有名的五大会计事务所之一。 ***** 重点人物: 本书中描写的重点人物是艾斯曼(Eisman),然后是...

评分Michael Lewis走过的职业道路是我的梦想。从普林斯顿艺术史专业本科毕业后,他到纽约工作,很快被华尔街的浮华所迷醉,想尽办法希望进入投资银行业,未遂。无奈下他只能先到伦敦政治经济学院(LSE)攻读经济学硕士。在一次女王母亲主持的招待会上,他“碰巧”坐在两位所罗门兄弟(...
没有liar’s poker好,但是还是很幽默也很有见解。我认为很多地方有点啰嗦,在一个不要去信他关于LEAPS鼓吹,LEAPS的time value太高,真的很划不来。
评分讓人心煩意亂…
评分黑评级机构那段实在是太讽刺但又是个残酷的事实:所有其它行业的人都被鸡贼金融业搞,连政府也得陪着玩。
