The World for Sale pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2025
Javier Blas and Jack Farchy are two of the best-known journalists covering energy, commodities and trading houses. Today, they both work for Bloomberg News, where Blas is Chief Energy Correspondent and Farchy is a Senior Reporter covering natural resources. Working together both at the Financial
Times and now at Bloomberg, they've interviewed most of the key figures in the commodity trading industry, in many cases the first interviews the traders had ever given. They have an extensive network of contacts among executives, financiers, investors, government officials and civil society. They
founded the FT Global Commodities Summit, an annual conference which has become established as the pre-eminent gathering of the industry. This is their first book.
The modern world is built on commodities - from the oil that fuels our cars to the metals that power our smartphones.
We rarely stop to consider where they have come from. But we should.
In The World for Sale, two leading journalists lift the lid on one of the least scrutinised corners of the world economy: the workings of the billionaire commodity traders who buy, hoard and sell the earth's resources.
It is the story of how a handful of swashbuckling businessmen became indispensable cogs in global markets: enabling an enormous expansion in international trade, and connecting resource-rich countries - no matter how corrupt or war-torn - with the world's financial centres.
And it is the story of how some traders acquired untold political power, right under the noses of western regulators and politicians - helping Saddam Hussein to sell his oil, fuelling the Libyan rebel army during the Arab Spring, and funnelling cash to Vladimir Putin's Kremlin in spite of western
sanctions.
The result is an eye-opening tour through the wildest frontiers of the global economy, as well as a revelatory guide to how capitalism really works.

评分It’s intriguing, probably the best book I read about the merchandise trader.It’s like a black hole everyone knows it, the enormous profits but no one actually speak about it or even talk about openly, it’s the secrecy make me more attracted into the story.The Ukrainian thing, the oils and grains , definitely repeat again and make reach new pinnacle
评分Free market in its best and worst forms. 粗扫一遍，书里核心观点就是赚钱就不怕违法，越不明确越赚钱。 还记得Glencore当年上市的Project Galaxy WGL上有花街近乎所有的银行，ESG这些年后又开始扬眉吐气了。
评分从石油七姐妹的瓦解，到第三世界的独立、苏联解体、古巴危机、中东冲突、再到中国的崛起及新冠的爆发，在过去的五十年，大宗商品贸易商凭借着勤奋、独特的商业眼光及冒险精神，在石油、矿产、粮食等领域，赚得是盆满钵满。刀尖上行走，富贵险中求。 随着Glencore的上市，曾低调隐秘、鲜为人知的行业走进了大众的视野，备受关注和监管。信息的民主化，全球贸易的发展，气候变化，中国国家队的加入，大宗贸易商的黄金时代已然落幕。 然而只要市场有效率差异，就会有价格差，就必然会有贸易商的存在。近似疯狂的勤奋，聪明，非凡的人际交往和一心搞钱的专注，注定会引领一个新的时代。
