Download Sages: Warren Buffett, George Soros, Paul Volcker, and the Maelstrom of Markets AudioBook Free
A bestselling publisher examines the perspectives and guidelines of three pillars of the financial world - as well as their judgments on the current crisis and the path to recovery Throughout the violent financial disruptions of the past many years, three men have stood out as beacons of judgment and knowledge: Warren Buffett, George Soros, and Paul Volcker. Though their experience and styles change - Buffett is the canny currency markets trader; Soros is the audience of shifting global tides in trade and currencies; and Volcker is the regulator and governor, sheriff and clean-up staff - they have very much in keeping. All three men have more than fifty years of deep participation in markets. All are skeptical of Wall Neighborhood frenzies. They believe that markets tend to be right, but usually only over the medium term. They have observed way too many cycles of herd-driven, emotion-riding booms and busts to make their views hostage to the sweeping and simplistic assumptions of ''efficient-markets'' models. With the benefit for his own deep understanding of marketplaces and financing, Morris brilliantly analyzes the records of these men, distilling their knowledge and experience - and argues for the value of consistent beliefs in navigating the treacherous landscape of today's globalized world. In addition to the recent New York Times bestseller The Trillion Dollar Meltdown, Charles R. Morris has written eleven catalogs, including The Tycoons, a Barrons' Best Publication of 2005. A lawyer and ex - banker, Mr. Morris's articles and reviews have made an appearance in many magazines including The Atlantic Monthly, the New York Times, and the Wall Street Journal.
