A. Anyone interested in the stock markets
and financial history of the world thus
far........I strongly recommend watching
the "Accent of Money"...on PBS
this
month. It's a piece put together by a
guy named professor Niall Ferguson.
very
good TV (unlike most of crap on
nowadays)..like the Housewives of
Orange
County..lol

This Guy (Ferguson) was also on Stephen
Colbert last night.

This special covers everything from
Quant funds (that use mathematical
algorithms...ie Long Term Capital
Management LTCM....Scholes and Merton )
to
determine futures contracts...to the
bond market...to the future of
"Chiamerica"....LTCM got a new
york fed brokered BAIL OUT when the
Russian
economy went under ya know. And there a
hedge fund....lol

he has a book by the same name BTW >
