评分 评分这本书英文原版2000年就有了,中文版06年又重版了。但不知为什么这本书在豆瓣上没有,于是我就加上了,顺便再写点推荐的文字。 推荐这本书基于两种推荐:其一,这本书作为书写一段历史——一个公司和一群人的历史是成功的,非常好读,还把事情描述得很清楚,把枯燥的...
评分比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...

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.
The rise and fall of LTCM
评分生活如赌博,我觉得运气和心态完全成正比。
评分Excellent professional book about what has happened in LTCM. However I doubt they are genius or more average human, who nonetheless are controlled by their own fear and greed as well as the others. Other thing is it is again showed how modelling is diffcult for a financial market!
评分LTCM死掉了,只是历史的必然,不要过分苛责该公司的每一个管理者(除了小罗特莫顿)
