The #1 New York Times bestseller: "It is the work of our greatest financial journalist, at the top of his game. And it's essential reading."―Graydon Carter, Vanity Fair
The real story of the crash began 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.
Michael Lewis creates a fresh, character-driven narrative brimming with indignation and dark humor, a fitting sequel to his #1 bestseller Liar's Poker. Out of a 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 time.
Michael Lewis, the best-selling author of Liar's Poker, The Money Culture, The New New Thing, Moneyball, The Blind Side, Panic, Home Game, The Big Short, and Boomerang, among other works, lives in Berkeley, California, with his wife and three children.
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 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...
評分"开张支票把谈话中的许诺确定下来------巴菲特" (P29 ) "时间是可变的, 脱离了社交让我更加专注于我要专注的事情上------迈克尔 巴里(Michael Burry)" (P38) "巴里坚定他是地球上除起草这些文件的律师之外,唯一阅读这些文件的人. 同事, 他应该也是唯一一个对这些住房贷款进...
評分记得在雷曼兄弟刚完蛋之后,学校里请来了几位基金操盘手讲述危机怎么发生的。记得当时的主题就是从业人员也并不很清楚那些工具的细节。当时的感觉就是,这些人讲话中术语很多,缩写字母用得特多。在座的听众估计多数人跟我一样,一头雾水的样子。幸好本人在金融公司混过,还能...
沒有金融背景也能讀懂2008金融危機的書。Michael Burry的故事告訴我們,“舉世皆濁我獨清,眾人皆醉我獨醒”需要的不僅僅是勇氣,還有智慧和運氣。
评分書買迴來好幾年總算看完。Lewis的角度還挺有意思,就是一開始不停地介紹新角色讓我差點看不下去。
评分對於finanical crisis的迴憶,太精彩瞭!我瞭解瞭太多關於華爾街空頭的故事。我對於MIke Burry,影像最為深刻。關鍵Lweis的文筆太好瞭,把CDS和CDO寫的太容易明白瞭!
评分2013.01讀過
评分毫無金融知識的我讀著有點費勁,到底也沒看明白是怎麼做空的。不是作者書寫的不好,是我太笨。
