Flash Boys: A Wall Street Revolt - Livros em inglês na Amazon.com.br Four years after his #1 bestseller The Big Short, Michael Lewis returns to Wall Street to report on a high-tech predator stalking the equity markets. Flash Boys is about a small group of Wall Street guys who figure out that the U.S. stock market has been rigged for the benefit of insiders and that, post–financial crisis, the markets have become not more free but less, and more controlled by the big Wall Street banks. Working at different firms, they come to this realization separately; but after they discover one another, the flash boys band together and set out to reform the financial markets. This they do by creating an exchange in which high-frequency trading—source of the most intractable problems—will have no advantage whatsoever. The characters in Flash Boys are fabulous, each completely different from what you think of when you think “Wall Street guy.” Several have walked away from jobs in the financial sector that paid them millions of dollars a year. From their new vantage point they investigate the big banks, the world’s stock exchanges, and high-frequency trading firms as they have never been investigated, and expose the many strange new ways that Wall Street generates profits. The light that Lewis shines into the darkest corners of the financial world may not be good for your blood pressure, because if you have any contact with the market, even a retirement account, this story is happening to you. But in the end, Flash Boys is an uplifting read. Here are people who have somehow preserved a moral sense in an environment where you don’t get paid for that; they have perceived an institutionalized injustice and are willing to go to war to fix it.

Michael Lewis ? To fora !

Desse cabra eu tenho 2 livros (e vou parar por ai) : Liars poker - não consegui ler + de 1/3. Big Short - um livro cujo assunto é interessante, mas chato de ler pelo elevado nível de detalhes, picuinhas e enfeites literários inúteis - poderia ter metade do tamanho e preservar o conteúdo realmente importante. Essas revisões que a gente as vezes encontra na "Amazon" são furadas - uns lêem, acham ruim, mas para se passarem por intelectualizados colocam abobrinhas sem fim (estilo indústria da dieta). Um interessante que eu lí recentemente foi esse (tem pra Kindle) : What Hedge Funds Really Do: An Introduction to Portfolio Management | Business Expert Press

Realmente cheio de picuinhas,concordo com especuloide,o assunto chama atenção,mas a chatice dos detalhes incomoda.A razão do poster foi motivada pela leitura do resumo do livro que parece ser interessante.Vale a pena,não sei,isso é gosto de cada um. Valeu pelos comentários.

O problema é que resumo de livro é igual a trailer do filme - na grande maioria das vezes são muito melhores que os originais.
