When Genius Failed: The Rise and Fall of Long Term Capital Management [平装] pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载
内容简介
Picking up where Liar’s Poker left off (literally, in the bond dealer’s desks of Salomon Brothers) the story of Long-Term Capital Management is of a group of elite investors who believed they could beat the market and, like alchemists, create limitless wealth for themselves and their partners.Founded by John Meriweather, a notoriously confident bond dealer, along with two Nobel prize winners and a floor of Wall Street’s brightest and best, Long-Term Captial Management was from the beginning hailed as a new gold standard in investing. It was to be the hedge fund to end all other hedge funds: a discreet private investment club limited to those rich enough to pony up millions.It became the banks’ own favourite fund and from its inception achieved a run of dizzyingly spectacular returns. New investors barged each other aside to get their investment money into LTCM’s hands. But as competitors began to mimic Meriweather’s fund, he altered strategy to maintain the fund’s performance, leveraging capital with credit on a scale not fully understood and never seen before.When the markets in Indonesia, South America and Russia crashed in 1998 LCTM’s investments crashed with them and mountainous debts accumulated. The fund was in melt-down, and threatening to bring down into its trillion-dollar black hole a host of financial instiutions from New York to Switzerland. It’s a tale of vivid characters, overwheening ambition, and perilous drama told, in Roger Lowenstein’s hands, with brilliant style and panache.

精彩书评
'A must-read thriller for anyone who works, or invests in markets. It is a story of how arrogance can drive greed and fear to extremes.' Scotsman 'Richly textured and lucid!A riveting account that reaches beyond the market landscape to say something universal about risk and triumph, about hubris and failure.' New York Times 'Lowenstein has written a squalid and fascinating tale of world-class greed and, above all, hubris.' Business Week 'This book is story-telling journalism at its best' The Economist

很喜欢龙应台,他的每一本书几本上都有,这本孩子你慢慢来很不错,龙应台,她豪情万丈,但在孩子面前柔情百结。孩子你慢慢来的文字是一个母亲用生命的体悟,那一刻,她不是斗士龙应台,她是一个怀抱着一团小生命的母亲。龙应台以其果断,思辨,清晰,明澈一惯的一面,以及不常见家庭主妇,婆妈,小嗦碎的一面向大家展示了小朋友的世界,以及尊重小朋友,用力想要理解他们的大人,整本书读起来给人又轻松又可爱的感觉!谁能告诉我做女人和做个人怎么平衡我爱极了做母亲,只要把孩子的头放在我胸口,就能使我觉得幸福。可是使我觉得幸福。可是我也是个需要极大的内在空间的个人女性主义者,如果你不曾体验过生养的喜悦和痛苦,你究竟能告诉我些什么呢作为华人世界最有影响的一支笔,龙应台的文章有万丈豪气,然而孩子你慢慢来却令人惊叹,她的文字也可以有万丈深情。孩子你慢慢来里的龙应台是一个母亲,与生命的本质和起点素面相对,做最深刻的思索,最不思索的热爱。它不是传统的母职的歌颂,是对生命的实景写生,只有真正懂得爱的作家才写得出的生活散文。孩子你慢慢来阿婆,我要这一束!黑衫黑裤的老妇人把我要的二十几支桃红色的玫瑰从桶里取出,交给小孙儿,转身去找钱。小孙儿大概只有5岁,清亮的眼睛,透红的脸颊,咧嘴笑着,露出几颗稀疏的牙齿。他很慎重、很欢喜地接过花束,抽出一根草绳绑花。花枝太多,他的手太小,草绳又长,小小的人儿又偏偏想打个蝴蝶结,手指绕来绕去,这个结还是打不起来。死婴那,这么憨慢!卡紧,郎客在等哪!老祖母粗声骂起来,还推了他一把。没要紧,阿婆,阮时干真多,让伊慢慢来。安抚了老祖母,我在石阶上坐下来,看着这个5岁的小男孩,还在很努力地打那个蝴蝶结绳子穿来穿去,刚好可以拉的一刻,又松了开来,于是重新再来小小的手慎重地捏着细细的草绳。淡水的街头,阳光斜照着窄巷里这间零乱的花铺。回教徒和犹太人在彼此屠杀,衣索匹亚的老弱妇孺在一个接一个地饿死,纽约华尔街的证券市场挤满了表隋紧张的人——我,坐在斜阳浅照的石阶上,愿意等上一辈子的时间,让这个孩子从从容容地把那个蝴蝶结扎好,用他5岁的手指。王爱莲,补习费呢林老师的眼光冷冷的。王爱莲坐在最后一排她永远坐在最后一排,虽然她个子也矮。60个学生冻冻地缩在木椅上,没有人回头,但是不回头,我也能想象王爱莲的样子蓬乱的头发一团一团的,好像从来没洗过。穿着肮脏破烂的制服,别人都添毛衣的时候,她还是那一身单衣,冬天里,她的嘴唇永远是蓝紫色的,握笔的手有一条一条筋暴出来。没有补习费,还敢来上学林老师从来不发脾气,他只是冷冷地看着你。上来!王爱莲抽着鼻涕,哆哆嗦嗦走到最前排,刚好站在我前面.今天,她连袜子都没穿。光
