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.

評分要我挑出来一个最喜欢的商业书作者,就是迈克尔·刘易斯了吧。看完了他写的每一本书。买《The big short》这本书的时候还在Berkeley,其实是有机会去采访他的,在一个什么见面会上,那时候还不知道他要出新书,如果去听会,居然要付6美金,够我买两瓶红酒喝,就放弃了。...
評分2011.8.5,S&P downgraded U.S. credit rating,全球大跌。每天收到合作的基金公司email轰炸。前天又开始新一轮跌,email又来了。与其读那些email,不如读书。 昨天,终于废寝不忘食读完了The Big Short by Michael Lewis。真好看呐,特别是崩盘前夕那段,真揪心,从中环走到...
評分老师推荐的课外读物《The Big Short》(中文译名大空头),英文原著(2010 by Michael Lewis)和中文译本(何正云翻译的)都读了,对应的电影(亚当·麦凯在2015执导的)也看了。很有意思,强烈推荐。书中讲述了四路华尔街的人马在2008年次贷危机前,靠自己对住房次贷市场与经...
still love Michael Lewis.
评分感覺電影比書好看。 :)
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.
评分五星是因為當初給瞭too big to fail四星,但是坦白說,並不贊成全篇給做空者唱贊歌。
评分Hard to do a better job on this otherwise boringly dry and artificially distorted topic.
