The Greatest Trade Ever (häftad, eng)

''The definitive account of a sensational trade'' Michael Lewis, author of The Big Short

Autumn 2008. The world''s finances collapse but one man makes a killing.

John Paulson, a softly spoken hedge-fund manager who still took the bus to work, seemed unlikely to stake his career on one big gambleBut he did - and The Greatest Trade Ever is the story of how he realised that the sub-prime housing bubble was going to burst, making $15 Billion for his fund and more than $4 Billion for himself in a single year. It''s a tale of folly and wizardry, individual brilliance versus institutional stupidity.

John Paulson made the biggest winning bet in historyAnd this is how he did it.
