Laughing at Wall Street

Laughing at Wall Street How I Beat the Pros at Investing (by Reading Tabloids, Shopping at the Mall, and Connecting on Facebook) and How You Can, Too by Chris Camillo

$20,000 to $2 million in only three years— the greatest stock-picker you never heard of tells you how you can do it too Chris Camillo is not a stockbroker, financial analyst, or hedge fund manager. He is an ordinary person with a knack for identifying trends and discovering great investments hidden in everyday life. In early 2007, he invested $20,000 in the stock market, and in three years it grew to just over $2 million. With Laughing at Wall Street, you'll see: •How Facebook friends helped a young parent invest in the wildly successful children's show, Chuggington—and saw her stock values climb 50% •How an everyday trip to 7-Eleven alerted a teenager to short Snapple stock—and tripled his money in seven days •How $1000 invested consecutively in Uggs, True Religion jeans, and Crocs over five years grew to $750,000 •How Michelle Obama caused J. Crew's stock to soar 186%, and Wall Street only caught up four months later! Engaging, narratively-driven, and without complicated financial analysis, Camillo's stock picking methodology proves that you do not need large sums of money or fancy market data to become a successful investor.

The Compounders - Oddbjørn Dybvad, Kjetil Nyland & Adnan Hadžiefendić Cover Art

The Compounders

The Compounders by Oddbjørn Dybvad, Kjetil Nyland & Adnan Hadžiefendić

Every investor has heard of Warren Buffett, Charlie Munger, and Berkshire Hathaway. But what if there were other firms flying under the radar and taking their investing strategy to the next level—using powerful principles and techniques that you can learn from right now? The Compounders introduces these remarkable companies to a wider audience for the first time. Discover a select group of high-performing conglomerates, led by exceptional capital allocators. These firms, operating decentralized structures in fragmented markets, redefine acquisitive growth. Unlike conventional roll-ups or turnarounds, they target smaller private businesses, often family owned, with a precise, data-driven acquisition process. And while private market investors, they are publicly listed—avoiding the usual constraints of private equity. At the heart of these organisations lies an astonishing reinvestment engine that seamlessly bridges top-tier capital allocation and the entrepreneurial drive of decentralized autonomy. The Compounders reveals nine of these overlooked publicly traded conglomerates from around the world, united by a common vision of top-tier value creation—and explores in depth how these companies consistently outperform industry giants like Berkshire Hathaway and major stock market indexes. Discover the strategies, learn from the success stories, and unlock the secrets of investing in acquisition-driven compounders—where diversity, resilience and scale come together to produce unmatched financial success.  *** Praise for The Compounders : "An excellent summary of a too-little-known phenomenon … The authors' thoughtful, analytical approach brings this story to light with great verve."  —William N. Thorndike, Jr., author of The Outsiders ; founder and managing director of Housatonic Partners "An invaluable guide for all investors. The historical deep dives serve as perfect templates to help investors find the next generation of 100-baggers." —Christopher Mayer, portfolio manager and co-founder, Woodlock House Family Capital; author of 100 Baggers "For anyone seeking to understand how disciplined capital allocation and decentralized decision-making can create lasting value, this book offers both inspiration and instruction." —Lawrence A.

Barbarians at the Gate - Bryan Burrough & John Helyar Cover Art

Barbarians at the Gate

Barbarians at the Gate The Fall of RJR Nabisco by Bryan Burrough & John Helyar

#1 New York Times bestseller and arguably the best business narrative ever written, Barbarians at the Gate is the classic account of the fall of RJR Nabisco at the hands of a buyout from investment firm KKR. A book that stormed both the bestseller list and the public imagination, a book that created a genre of its own, and a book that gets at the heart of Wall Street and the '80s culture it helped define, Barbarians at the Gate is a modern classic—a masterpiece of investigatory journalism and a rollicking book of corporate derring-do and financial swordsmanship. The fight to control RJR Nabisco during October and November of 1988 was more than just the largest takeover in Wall Street history. Marked by brazen displays of ego not seen in American business for decades, it became the high point of a new gilded age and its repercussions are still being felt. The tale remains the ultimate story of greed and glory—a story and a cast of characters that determined the course of global business and redefined how deals would be done and fortunes made in the decades to come. Barbarians at the Gate is the gripping account of these two frenzied months, of deal makers and publicity flaks, of an old-line industrial powerhouse (home of such familiar products a Oreos and Camels) that became the victim of the ruthless and rapacious style of finance in the 1980s. As reporters for The Wall Street Journal, Burrough and Helyar had extensive access to all the characters in this drama. They take the reader behind the scenes at strategy meetings and society dinners, into boardrooms and bedrooms, providing an unprecedentedly detailed look at how financial operations at the highest levels are conducted but also a richly textured social history of wealth at the twilight of the Reagan era. At the center of the huge power struggle is RJR Nabisco's president, the high-living Ross Johnson. It's his secret plan to buy out the company that sets the frenzy in motion, attracting the country's leading takeover players: Henry Kravis, the legendary leveraged-buyout king of investment firm KKR, whose entry into the fray sets off an acquisitive commotion; Peter Cohen, CEO of Shearson Lehman Hutton and Johnson's partner, who needs a victory to propel his company to an unchallenged leadership in the lucrative mergers and acquisitions field; the fiercely independent Ted Forstmann, motivated as much by honor as by his rage at the corruption he sees taking over the business he cherishes; Jim Maher and his ragtag team, struggling to regain credibility for the decimated ranks at First Boston; and an army of desperate bankers, lawyers, and accountants, all drawn inexorably to the greatest prize of their careers—and one of the greatest prizes in the history of American business. Written with the bravado of a novel and researched with the diligence of a sweeping cultural history, Barbarians at the Gate is present at the front line of every battle of the campaign. Here is the unforgettable story of that takeover in all its brutality. In a new afterword specially commissioned for the story's 20th anniversary, Burrough and Helyar return to visit the heroes and villains of this epic story, tracing the fallout of the deal, charting the subsequent success and failure of those involved, and addressing the incredible impact this story—and the book itself—made on the world.

A Complete Guide To Volume Price Analysis - Anna Coulling Cover Art

A Complete Guide To Volume Price Analysis

A Complete Guide To Volume Price Analysis Read the book, then read the market by Anna Coulling

What do Charles Dow, Jesse Livermore, and Richard Ney have in common? They used volume and price to anticipate where the market was heading and built their vast fortunes. For them, it was the ticker tape; for us, it is the trading screen. The results are the same and can be for you, too. I make no bones about believing I was lucky to start my own trading journey using volume. To me it just made sense. The logic was inescapable. And for me, the most powerful reason is very simple. Volume is a rare commodity in trading - a leading indicator. The second and only other leading indicator is price. Everything else is lagged. As traders, investors, or speculators, all we are trying to do is to forecast where the market is heading next. Is there any better way than to use the only two leading indicators we have at our disposal, namely volume and price? In isolation, each tells us very little. After all, volume is just that, no more no less. A price is a price. However, combine these two forces, and the result is a powerful analytical approach to confidently forecasting market direction. This book will teach you all you need to know from first principles. So whether you're a day trader or a longer-term investor in any market, instrument, or timeframe, this book is the perfect platform to set you on the road to success and join those iconic traders of the past. All you need to succeed is a chart with volume and price…simple.

The Little Book of Common Sense Investing - John C. Bogle Cover Art

The Little Book of Common Sense Investing

The Little Book of Common Sense Investing The Only Way to Guarantee Your Fair Share of Stock Market Returns by John C. Bogle

The best-selling investing "bible" offers new information, new insights, and new perspectives The Little Book of Common Sense Investing is the classic guide to getting smart about the market. Legendary mutual fund pioneer John C. Bogle reveals his key to getting more out of investing: low-cost index funds. Bogle describes the simplest and most effective investment strategy for building wealth over the long term: buy and hold, at very low cost, a mutual fund that tracks a broad stock market Index such as the S&P 500. While the stock market has tumbled and then soared since the first edition of Little Book of Common Sense was published in April 2007, Bogle's investment principles have endured and served investors well. This tenth anniversary edition includes updated data and new information but maintains the same long-term perspective as in its predecessor. Bogle has also added two new chapters designed to provide further guidance to investors: one on asset allocation, the other on retirement investing. A portfolio focused on index funds is the only investment that effectively guarantees your fair share of stock market returns. This strategy is favored by Warren Buffett, who said this about Bogle: "If a statue is ever erected to honor the person who has done the most for American investors, the hands-down choice should be Jack Bogle. For decades, Jack has urged investors to invest in ultra-low-cost index funds. . . . Today, however, he has the satisfaction of knowing that he helped millions of investors realize far better returns on their savings than they otherwise would have earned. He is a hero to them and to me." Bogle shows you how to make index investing work for you and help you achieve your financial goals, and finds support from some of the world's best financial minds: not only Warren Buffett, but Benjamin Graham, Paul Samuelson, Burton Malkiel, Yale’s David Swensen, Cliff Asness of AQR, and many others. This new edition of The Little Book of Common Sense Investing offers you the same solid strategy as its predecessor for building your financial future. Build a broadly diversified, low-cost portfolio without the risks of individual stocks, manager selection, or sector rotation. Forget the fads and marketing hype, and focus on what works in the real world. Understand that stock returns are generated by three sources (dividend yield, earnings growth, and change in market valuation) in order to establish rational expectations for stock returns over the coming decade. Recognize that in the long run, business reality trumps market expectations. Learn how to harness the magic of compounding returns while avoiding the tyranny of compounding costs. While index investing allows you to sit back and let the market do the work for you, too many investors trade frantically, turning a winner's game into a loser's game. The Little Book of Common Sense Investing is a solid guidebook to your financial future.

E-mini Futures Trading Earning: Cognitive Energy Since 2016-01-01 Through 2020-05-14

E-mini Futures Trading Earning: Cognitive Energy Since 2016-01-01 Through 2020-05-14 by Tao Yang

Within two months, US stock market will end the current rally. The current rally is now facing big pressure from go up further. Within half year, after the pull back from the current rally, US market can go up again to provide a second rally. However, after the predicted second rally, within one year, the US market will crash again to break the low point of this crash, for S&P 500 Mini, the price will drop below 2174 level. In this report total 64 time scales for the energy of S&P 500 micro future were investigated. Different time scales of the energy correspond to different time scales of trading. My interpretations are such that: 12 types of time scales for S&P 500 E-mini may hold LONGs, 51 types of time scales for S&P 500 stock index futures wait for trading opportunities, 1 type of time scale for S&P 500 index future has a SHORT. In this book, we study the cognitive energy of the following time scales (in minutes): 1, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, 60, 80, 90, 100, 120, 150, 200, 300, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900, 1000, 1200, 1500, 2000, 2400, 3000, 4000, 5000, 6000, 7000, 8000, 9000, 10000, 20000, 30000, 40000, 50000, 60000, 70000, 80000, 90000, 100000, 120000, 180000, 200000, 240000, 300000, 400000, 480000, 500000, 600000, 700000, 800000, 900000, 1000000, 1500000, 2000000, 2400000, 2500000, 3000000, 3100000, 3200000, 3300000. In view of the fact that time scale for the energy is 1 minute, price momenta are very short time and can last for a few hours. As time scale for the cognitive energy is 3 minutes, energy tendencies are very short time range and can last for a few hours. Seeing that temporal measure unit for the energy value is 5 minutes, energy thrusts are very short time and can last for some hours. Seeing as time horizon for the value of energy is 10 minutes, trading trends are very short term and can last for a few hours. Because time scale for the energy value is 15 minutes, energy tendencies are very short time and can last for some hours. As time value scale for the energy is 20 minutes, energy thrusts are very short time and can last for a few hours. Owing to the fact that temporal scale for the energy value is 30 minutes, trading trends are very short time and can last for many hours. Seeing that time value scale for the cognitive energy is 40 minutes, price trends are very short time range and can last for some hours. All conclusions are based on a simple statistical observation implies that a divergence between the value of energy and the value of price usually leads to a change of trading trends. This report can be used for the reader with long-term and momentum trading strategies in mind such that to decide the long-term positions based on the divergence between the price and the value of energy. For swing trader, it is helpful to check the divergence between the energy and the price value for each price region of the trading period, such that the local energy tendencies can work together with swing patterns for enhancing the winning chance further. For day trading, it is useful to check the trends from the divergence between the value of energy and the value of price such that every trading action is backed up by long-term price trends and get more profit from high-probability bids. Since the cognitive energy is unique from any other trading indicator , it is not expected to learn and master this brand new method in short time and in an easy manner. The reader is advised to use it as an extra guideline to aid the conventional trading strategies that the reader might be familiar with and comfortable to use at hand. Although the long-term trends will stay for a long while, since the timely nature of stock market, updates to the results in this report might be needed if the reader choose to think in a shorter time scale. The price and the energy presented in this report are updated to 2020-05-14, the reader should check our latest updates often if the market becomes unstable.

The Mental Game of Trading - Jared Tendler Cover Art

The Mental Game of Trading

The Mental Game of Trading A System for Solving Problems with Greed, Fear, Anger, Confidence and Discipline by Jared Tendler

A step-by-step system for mastering trading psychology. Think about your most costly and recurring trading mistakes. Chances are that they’re related to common errors, such as chasing price, cutting winners short, forcing mediocre trades, and overtrading. You’ve likely tried to fix these errors by improving your technical skills, and yet they persist. That’s because the real source of these mistakes is not technical—they actually stem from greed, fear, anger, or problems with confidence and discipline.   If you are like most traders, you probably overlook or misunderstand mental and emotional obstacles. Or worse, you might think you know how to manage them, but you don’t, and end up losing control at the worst possible time. You’re leaving too much money on the table, which will either prevent you from being profitable or realizing your potential.   While many trading psychology books offer sound advice, they don’t show you how to do the necessary work. That’s why you haven’t solved the problems hurting your performance. With straight talk and practical solutions, Jared Tendler brings a new voice to trading psychology. In The Mental Game of Trading, he busts myths about emotions, greed, and discipline, and shows you how to look past the obvious to identify the real reasons you’re struggling.   This book is different from anything else on the market. You’ll get a step-by-step system for discovering the cause of your problems and eliminating them once and for all. And through real stories of traders from around the world who have successfully used Tendler’s system, you’ll learn how to tackle your problems, improve your day-to-day performance, and increase your profits.   Whether you’re an independent or institutional trader, and regardless of whether you trade equities, forex, or cryptocurrencies, you can use this system to improve your decision-making and execution. Finally, you have a way to reach your potential as a trader. Now’s the time to make it happen.

Dot.Con

Dot.Con The Greatest Story Ever Sold by John Cassidy

The history of the dot-com stock rise and fall from an economics reporter and staff writer for The New Yorker . The Internet stock bubble wasn't just about goggle-eyed day traders trying to get rich on the Nasdaq and goateed twenty-five-year-olds playing wannabe Bill Gates. It was also about an America that believed it had discovered the secret of eternal prosperity: it said something about all of us, and what we thought about ourselves, as the twenty-first century dawned. Business journalist John Cassidy's Dot.con brings this tumultuous episode to life. Moving from the Cold War Pentagon to Silicon Valley to Wall Street and into the homes of millions of Americans, Cassidy tells the story of the great boom and bust in an authoritative and entertaining narrative. Featuring all the iconic figures of the Internet era—Marc Andreessen, Jeff Bezos, Steve Case, Alan Greenspan, and many others—and with an afterword on the aftermath of the bust— Dot.con is a panoramic and stirring account of human greed and gullibility. "Required reading for generations of B-school students as yet unborn. . . . A marvelous book." — Wall Street Journal "Deserves to be the boom's standard account. It is informative, perceptive, and gracefully written." — New Republic "The first good book about one of capitalism's most embarrassing debacles." —Salon.com

Tom Hougaard es el ganador de múltiples competiciones de trading y en una ocasión negoció 25.000 libras esterlinas y las convirtió en más 1 millón de libras en el transcurso de un año.

Esta exposición al riesgo requiere una mentalidad fuera de lo común. El pensamiento normal conduce a resultados normales. Para obtener resultados excepcionales, los traders deben pensar de forma diferente. Este libro le guiará e inspirará como ningún otro libro de trading lo ha hecho jamás. No trata de estrategias y gestión del dinero. Trata de gestión mental. Tom Hougaard ofrece un relato único y refrescante de cómo un trader normal y corriente elevó su juego a niveles increíbles al centrarse tanto en su enfoque mental como en su análisis técnico. Tom Hougaard explica cómo, pensando de forma diferente al hacer trading, puede convertir su trading de mediocre —con solo ganancias esporádicas— a excelente y consistente. Ninguna cantidad de análisis técnico hará esto nunca por usted. En este libro encontrará un antídoto para el pensamiento convencional e imperfecto y un plan para establecer un nuevo sistema de creencias para traders que quieren incrementar sus resultados a niveles que nunca soñaron alcanzar. Tom Hougaard dice: «La gente no fracasa porque no sepan lo bastante de análisis técnico. Fracasan porque no entienden lo que los mercados hacen a su mente».

You've probably experienced the frustration: buying a hyped trading course only to find vague concepts and no actionable strategy.

The Harder You Work, the Luckier You Get - Joe Ricketts Cover Art

The Harder You Work, the Luckier You Get

The Harder You Work, the Luckier You Get An Entrepreneur's Memoir by Joe Ricketts

Joe Ricketts, founder of TD Ameritrade, shares the epic inside story of how a working-class kid from the Nebraska prairie took on Wall Street’s clubby brokerage business, busted it open, and walked away a billionaire. Joe Ricketts always had the gift of seeing what others missed. The son of a house builder, he started life as a part-time janitor, but by the age of thirty-three he saw the chance to challenge the big brokerage firms by offering Americans an inexpensive way to take control of their own stock trading. Nowadays, we take for granted that Main Street is playing right there on Wall Street, but Ricketts made that happen. His company, begun with $12,500 borrowed from friends and family, took off like a rocket thanks to an early embrace of digital technology and irreverent marketing. But Ameritrade also faced a series of near-disasters: the SEC almost shut him down; his partners tried to force him out because of his relentless risk-taking; penny brokers swindled the company; the crash of 1989 nearly cost him everything; and he was almost shut down again when a customer committed massive fraud. By the time of the dot-com bust, he had proven that his strategy based on frontier values could survive just about anything. The Harder You Work, The Luckier You Get offers a view inside Joe Ricketts’ mind, giving readers a visceral understanding of how entrepreneurs think and act differently from the rest of us—how they see the horizon where we just see a spreadsheet. As unvarnished as the prairie he comes from, Ricketts also talks honestly about his shortcomings as a manager, the career sacrifices his wife made for his business, the complexity of being a father, and the pain of splitting with his mentor and of his brother’s death from AIDS. Overcoming these and other challenges, he built a company now worth $30 billion. A must-read for anyone who’s ever dreamed of starting their own business, The Harder You Work, The Luckier You Get is the ultimate only-in-America story.

This one-year plan will guide you through the three stages to your first $1 million: • The Grind (Months 0-4): This step-by-step plan will help you identify a winning product idea, target customers that are guaranteed to buy, secure funding, and take your first sale within your first four months. • The Growth (Months 5 - 8): Once you're in business, you will discover how to use cheap and effective advertising strategies to get your product to at least 25 sales per day, so you can prove you have a profitable business. • The Gold (Months 9-12): It's time to establish series of products available for sale, until you are averaging at least 100 sales per day, getting you closer to the million-dollar mark every single day. Through his training sessions at Capitalism.com, Ryan Daniel Moran has helped new and experienced entrepreneurs launch scalable and sustainable online businesses. He's seen more than 100 entrepreneurs cross the seven-figure barrier, many of whom go on to sell their businesses.

Planet Water - Steve Hoffmann Cover Art

Planet Water

Planet Water Investing in the World's Most Valuable Resource by Steve Hoffmann

Solving the world's water problems is proving to be one of the greatest investment opportunities of our time. Already, world water supplies are inadequate to meet demand, and the problem is going to get much worse in the years ahead. The World Bank estimates that 1.1 billion people lack access to safe drinking water and about 50 percent of the world's hospital beds are populated by people who have contracted water-borne diseases. If present consumption rates continue, in 25 years the world will be using 90 percent of all available freshwater. To address the problem, trillions of dollars will need to be invested in water infrastructure projects. And while the problems are most acute in developing and rapidly growing economies, there are huge water infrastructure needs in industrialized countries, as well. In the U.S. alone, it's estimated that more than $1 trillion will be needed for water and wastewater infrastructure projects. In Planet Water, water investment expert Steven Hoffmann explains the dynamics driving the water crisis and identifies investment opportunities in various sectors of the water industry. Hoffman provides investors with the knowledge and insights they need to make informed investments in water utilities, as well as companies providing water treatment services; infrastructure services; water monitoring and analytics; and desalination services. He also discusses mutual funds and ETFs that specialize in water stocks. Investing in the water industry is certainly no pie-in-the-sky idea. Over the past five years, many water stocks have exploded in value and water stocks as a whole have outperformed the S&P 500 by a substantial amount. In Planet Water, Hoffmann provides investors with everything they need to profit from this fast-growing industry in the years ahead.

Common Stocks as Long Term Investments - Edgar Lawrence Smith Cover Art

Common Stocks as Long Term Investments

Common Stocks as Long Term Investments by Edgar Lawrence Smith

Common Stocks as Long Term Investments (1924) by Edgar Lawrence Smith proved for the first time that stocks outperformed bonds in long-term stock market investments. Before Smith's work, the prevailing wisdom regarding investing stated that bonds were a safer investment. Conservative investors would allocate a large portion of their investments to bonds, relying on the annual rate of interest as a sure bet. Stocks, on the other hand, were viewed as risky speculations, due to the market's volatility. Smith himself held that view, before beginning the research for this book. As he told his Harvard class at their 50th reunion, "I tried to write a pamphlet on why bonds were the best form of long term investment. But supporting evidence for this thesis could not be found." Edgar Lawrence Smith (b. 1882, d. 1971) was a Harvard-educated economist and investment manager. While working as an advisor to the brokerage firm Low, Dixon & Company, he began to look at the relative performance of bonds versus stocks. Through 11 case studies completed for Common Stocks as Long Term Investments, Smith proved that the prevailing wisdom in favor of bonds over stocks was wrong. In 10 out of the 11 cases, a $10,000 investment in arbitrarily chosen stocks would have outperformed an equal investment in high-grade bonds. And in the 11th case, the lower return was impacted by two market panics and inflation (in the years 1866-1885). How does Smith account for the better performance of stocks over time? To begin, stocks often grow with or even in excess of inflation. Returns on bonds, on the other hand, lose purchasing power over time due to inflation. In addition, the general march of progress through population growth and improved standards of living over time leads to greater demand for products and services. The trajectory of progress often leads to growth that outpaces inflation, making stocks a better long-term investment. Smith's work supports a long-term investment strategy. He shows that over 15 years, the value of stocks sees a loss only 1.1% of the time. While they may be subject to short-term fluctuations, their long-term reliability makes them a smart investment as part of a balanced portfolio. Smith does not advocate against bonds. He merely suggests that investors give heavier weight to stocks than bonds, rather than the other way around. Famous economists Irving Fisher and John Maynard Keynes praised the book. Keynes invited Smith to join the Royal Economic Society, and Fisher directly stated that he had more confidence in common stocks due to Smith's work. Unfortunately, Smith, Irving, Keynes, and the rest of the world were about to discover that while stocks were generally the best long-term investments, there could still be ruinous market fluctuations. The Wall Street Crash of 1929 was the ruin of many individuals and businesses. Keynes' fortune was nearly wiped out. Irving lost over $100M in today's dollars. And Smith himself had to sell his own mutual fund firm, Investment Managers Company. In the subsequent years, Smith focused instead on research and writing, rather than working directly in the financial industry. But the long-term reliability of common stocks still holds. Even accounting for large market downturns, a diversified investment portfolio weighted to common stocks is still the clear financial winner when we look at an investment strategy over decades. While Smith suffered from the Crash of '29 (along with the rest of the country, including great economists), his ideas have been backed up since he first published, by Alfred Cowles in 1939 and again by Rex Sinquefield in 1976.

Antifragile - Nassim Nicholas Taleb Cover Art

Antifragile

Antifragile Things That Gain from Disorder by Nassim Nicholas Taleb

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Antifragile is a standalone book in Nassim Nicholas Taleb’s landmark Incerto series, an investigation of opacity, luck, uncertainty, probability, human error, risk, and decision-making in a world we don’t understand. The other books in the series are Fooled by Randomness, The Black Swan, Skin in the Game, and The Bed of Procrustes . Nassim Nicholas Taleb, the bestselling author of The Black Swan and one of the foremost thinkers of our time, reveals how to thrive in an uncertain world. Just as human bones get stronger when subjected to stress and tension, and rumors or riots intensify when someone tries to repress them, many things in life benefit from stress, disorder, volatility, and turmoil. What Taleb has identified and calls “antifragile” is that category of things that not only gain from chaos but need it in order to survive and flourish. In The Black Swan, Taleb showed us that highly improbable and unpredictable events underlie almost everything about our world. In Antifragile, Taleb stands uncertainty on its head, making it desirable, even necessary, and proposes that things be built in an antifragile manner. The antifragile is beyond the resilient or robust. The resilient resists shocks and stays the same; the antifragile gets better and better. Furthermore, the antifragile is immune to prediction errors and protected from adverse events. Why is the city-state better than the nation-state, why is debt bad for you, and why is what we call “efficient” not efficient at all? Why do government responses and social policies protect the strong and hurt the weak? Why should you write your resignation letter before even starting on the job? How did the sinking of the Titanic save lives? The book spans innovation by trial and error, life decisions, politics, urban planning, war, personal finance, economic systems, and medicine. And throughout, in addition to the street wisdom of Fat Tony of Brooklyn, the voices and recipes of ancient wisdom, from Roman, Greek, Semitic, and medieval sources, are loud and clear. Antifragile is a blueprint for living in a Black Swan world. Erudite, witty, and iconoclastic, Taleb’s message is revolutionary: The antifragile, and only the antifragile, will make it. Praise for Antifragile “Ambitious and thought-provoking . . . highly entertaining.” — The Economist “A bold book explaining how and why we should embrace uncertainty, randomness, and error . . . It may just change our lives.” — Newsweek

The Wisdom Of Finance - Mihir Desai Cover Art

The Wisdom Of Finance

The Wisdom Of Finance Discovering Humanity in the World of Risk and Return by Mihir Desai

“Entertaining and informative. Desai takes us on a journey through the fundamentals of finance, from asset pricing to risk and risk management, via options, mergers, debt, and bankruptcy."- John Lanchester, The New Yorker "A fascinating new perspective on modern finance," --Oliver Hart, 2016 Nobel Laureate in Economics "Lucid, witty and delightfully erudite...From the French revolution to film noir, from the history of probability to Jane Austen and The Simpsons, this is an astonishing intellectual feast." --Sebastian Mallaby, author of The Man Who Knew: The Life and Times of Alan Greenspan Longlisted for 2017 Financial Times/McKinsey Business Book of the Year  A 2017 AMAZON PICK IN BUSINESS & LEADERSHIP A WealthManagement.com BEST BUSINESS BOOK OF 2017 In 1688, essayist Josef de la Vega described finance as both “the fairest and most deceitful business . . . the noblest and the most infamous in the world, the finest and most vulgar on earth.” The characterization of finance as deceitful, infamous, and vulgar still rings true today – particularly in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis. But, what happened to the fairest, noblest, and finest profession that de la Vega saw?  De la Vega hit on an essential truth that has been forgotten: finance can be just as principled, life-affirming, and worthy as it can be fraught with questionable practices.  Today, finance is shrouded in mystery for outsiders, while many insiders are uneasy with the disrepute of their profession.  How can finance become more accessible and also recover its nobility? Harvard Business School professor Mihir Desai, in his “last lecture” to the graduating Harvard MBA class of 2015, took up the cause of restoring humanity to finance. With incisive wit and irony, his lecture drew upon a rich knowledge of literature, film, history, and philosophy to explain the inner workings of finance in a manner that has never been seen before. This book captures Desai’s lucid exploration of the ideas of finance as seen through the unusual prism of the humanities. Through this novel, creative approach, Desai shows that outsiders can access the underlying ideas easily and insiders can reacquaint themselves with the core humanity of their profession. The mix of finance and the humanities creates unusual pairings: Jane Austen and Anthony Trollope are guides to risk management; Jeff Koons becomes an advocate of leverage; and Mel Brooks’s The Producers teaches us about fiduciary responsibility. In Desai’s vision, the principles of finance also provide answers to critical questions in our lives. Among many surprising parallels, bankruptcy teaches us how to react to failure, the lessons of mergers apply to marriages, and the Capital Asset Pricing Model demonstrates the true value of relationships. THE WISDOM OF FINANCE is a wholly unique book, offering a refreshing new perspective on one of the world’s most complex and misunderstood professions.
