How top traders made huge profits during the most momentous
market events of the past century
Financial and commodity markets are characterized by periodic
crashes and upside explosions. In retrospect, the reasons behind
these abrupt movements often seem very clear, but generally few
people understand what's happening at the time. Top traders and
investors like George Soros or Jesse Livermore have stood apart
from the crowd and capitalized on their unique insights to capture
huge profits.
Engaging and informative, The Greatest Trades of All Time
chronicles how a select few traders anticipated market
eruptions?from the 1929 stock market crash to the 2008 subprime
mortgage meltdown?and positioned themselves to excel while a
majority of others failed. Along the way, author Vincent Veneziani
describes the economic and financial forces that led to each market
cataclysm and how these individuals perceived what was
happening beforehand and why they decided to place big bets, often
at great risk and in opposition to consensus opinion at the
time.
* Traders discussed include George Soros, Jesse Livermore, Paul
Tudor Jones, John Templeton, and John Paulson
* Provide contemporary traders and investors with insights on how
great traders make great trades
* Offers insights on market forecasting, mass psychology, and the
importance of personal conviction in trading
At a time when many investors are looking to the past for
answers to the future, this book brings important historical
moments in the financial markets to life.
