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.

评分金融术语就不再赘述,想当年我还翻译过雷曼关于CDO和合成CDO的文章,赚些零花钱,现在想来恍如隔世。还是先说说书中我最钦佩的牛掰人物,迈克尔.巴里。 他最精彩的发言如下:市场上基金经理评估风险的方法非常愚蠢。他们用波动幅度来评估风险。即过去几年间,一只股票或者债券...
评分The book scrutinizes the subprime mortgage crisis by telling the stories of several typical Wall Street investors. As inspiring as their experiences are (how they grew from scratch not how they screwed the system), I would prefer a book that discusses the crisis, by and large.

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。
评分Hard to do a better job on this otherwise boringly dry and artificially distorted topic.
