The Predator's Ball is the story of DREXEL BURNHAM. Connie Brook

When trading on the stock exchange for years, you often wonder why seemingly reliable forecasts don't come true.

Over time, you learn that stock prices aren't always predictable using fundamental or technical analysis.

In real life, there are hidden mechanisms that simply defy analysis because the information available to investors is fictitious.

A book about the investment firm Drexel Burnham will help you better understand the workings of the US stock market.

Based on interviews with Drexel Burnham employees conducted by Connie Bruck, "The Predator's Ball: A History of Drexel Burnham" will help you understand the essence of profiting from "junk bonds" and perhaps learn something useful.

This publication will be of interest not only to potential investors and traders, but also to a wide range of readers.

The main chapters of the book:

Part One – which is dedicated to the history of the origins of junk bonds and how Drexel worked. How, in just five years, it managed to achieve a leading position on the stock exchange.

Part two One of the chapters in this section is called "Pawns Beat Kings" and perfectly describes the content of this section: How to become the manager of a major company through blackmail.

Part three – the rise and fall of one of the largest financial companies, once the fifth-largest investment bank in the US. How did this story of securities fraud that earned billions end?.

Overall, the book reads more like a work of fiction than a tedious financial textbook. It tells the story of a man who made a huge fortune from practically nothing, thanks to his resourcefulness and the opportunities of the stock market.

Excellent writing style, accessible language and a gripping plot for people interested in finance.

If you enjoyed The Wolf of Wall Street, you'll definitely enjoy Connie Brook's The Predator's Ball.
