圖書描述

On September 23, 1998, the boardroom of the New York Fed was a tense place. Around the table sat the heads of every major Wall Street bank, the chairman of the New York Stock Exchange, and representatives from numerous European banks, each of whom had been summoned to discuss a highly unusual prospect: rescuing what had, until then, been the envy of them all, the extraordinarily successful bond-trading firm of Long-Term Capital Management. Roger Lowenstein's When Genius Failed is the gripping story of the Fed's unprecedented move, the incredible heights reached by LTCM, and the firm's eventual dramatic demise.

Lowenstein, a financial journalist and author of Buffett: The Making of an American Capitalist, examines the personalities, academic experts, and professional relationships at LTCM and uncovers the layers of numbers behind its roller-coaster ride with the precision of a skilled surgeon. The fund's enigmatic founder, John Meriwether, spent almost 20 years at Salomon Brothers, where he formed its renowned Arbitrage Group by hiring academia's top financial economists. Though Meriwether left Salomon under a cloud of the SEC's wrath, he leapt into his next venture with ease and enticed most of his former Salomon hires--and eventually even David Mullins, the former vice chairman of the U.S. Federal Reserve--to join him in starting a hedge fund that would beat all hedge funds.

LTCM began trading in 1994, after completing a road show that, despite the Ph.D.-touting partners' lack of social skills and their disdainful condescension of potential investors who couldn't rise to their intellectual level, netted a whopping $1.25 billion. The fund would seek to earn a tiny spread on thousands of trades, "as if it were vacuuming nickels that others couldn't see," in the words of one of its Nobel laureate partners, Myron Scholes. And nickels it found. In its first two years, LTCM earned $1.6 billion, profits that exceeded 40 percent even after the partners' hefty cuts. By the spring of 1996, it was holding $140 billion in assets. But the end was soon in sight, and Lowenstein's detailed account of each successively worse month of 1998, culminating in a disastrous August and the partners' subsequent panicked moves, is riveting.

The arbitrageur's world is a complicated one, and it might have served Lowenstein well to slow down and explain in greater detail the complex terms of the more exotic species of investment flora that cram the book's pages. However, much of the intrigue of the Long-Term story lies in its dizzying pace (not to mention the dizzying amounts of money won and lost in the fund's short lifespan). Lowenstein's smooth, conversational but equally urgent tone carries it along well. The book is a compelling read for those who've always wondered what lay behind the Fed's controversial involvement with the LTCM hedge-fund debacle. --S. Ketchum

終於讀完瞭,寫的生動。

評分

2008年讀 事實說明,百年難遇的金融危機5年發生一次。

評分

與08年的危機相比,LTCM的破産隻不過是金融市場上很快會被人遺忘的一個小插麯。不過Merton和Scholes的參與還是讓它有瞭獨特的諷刺意義:1997年兩人因為金融的貢獻得諾奬,1998年LTCM被bailout。

波瀾壯闊

評分

其實挺多細節沒有讀懂的(汗顔...),不過關於LTCM的失敗,有一點還是很有警醒作用的,即像對衝基金這種看似高端的金融産物,如果脫離瞭對社會各方麵的瞭解,失敗就成為瞭必然。Meriwether召集的精英們,從前美聯儲副主席到諾貝爾獲奬者,可以說是一支讓人嘆為觀止的強大隊伍,可是他們敗就敗在目中無人。如果他們從數學公式裏走齣來,多瞭解基層的狀況,也許他們就不會從98年俄羅斯違約這一事件開始一敗塗地。

讀後感

評分

读《赌金者》一书,竟耗去了一个半月。为里面的几个关键点环节深深感慨。读一个真实的具体的案例,远胜于读十本理论书。又感到作者罗格•洛温斯坦那孜孜不倦的钻研精神,打破沙煲纹到底的锲而不舍的精神,书里本着务求真实的精神,不妄加作者的主观臆想,而能把故事如同历史...

清明节三天都在读这本书,以中国人的方式悼念长期资本管理公司。内容无可挑剔,翻译的语言也不晦涩。一路读来,发现不少有趣的事情。 1、做人要仗义:在拯救ltcm的整个过程中,只有贝尔斯登袖手旁观,结果,10年后遭报应了。据说,当其股价在60美元的时候,大量的人放空他到30...  

評分

比the big short和the greatest trade ever读起来晦涩一些,想搞明白要反复思考。难读的原因并非写作水平,而是基金公司的商业模式远比做空房地产市场复杂。长期资本交易所依赖的Black-Schole模型曾荣获诺贝尔经济学奖,交易中大量运用hedging和arbitrage,而Paulson取胜的关键...  

評分

如果作者的理解是正确的,那LTCM的策略很简单,两面下注,得到一个波动很小的金融产品组合,再用财务杠杆放大,从而创造出“适合自己”,也就是满足“最多能输多少钱”的预期盈利最高的产品组合。理论上说,这种方法可以精确地调节风险水平,从而能对自己“量身定做”出合适的...  

評分

LTCM是上个世纪最后十年对冲基金的传奇,无论从规模还是知名度,都可以算是hedge fund上的王冠。其兴盛和衰败都给了后人无穷教益,之后学界也作出了不少关于Effective Market Hypothesis的诸多实证研究。 70年代这门学科刚刚兴起的时候,很朴素的认为影响市场的因素是近乎无...
