Today it is the center of the financial world, the pivot point on which economies turn, companies rise and fall, and daring men and women go from rags to unbelievable riches, and sometimes back again. Along the way, Wall Street also has transformed itself and society, growing from an exclusive gentlemen's club to the place that millions of people now trust with their financial futures." "Never has it been more important to understand how modern Wall street truly works. And never before has the story of modern Wall Street been told by those who were there, personally, in their own words, uncensored, unfiltered, unbound. Now, in What Goes Up financial journalist Eric J. Weiner gives us the unvarnished, first-person truth, based on hundreds of interviews with Wall Street insiders, capturing the booms and busts of the past half century in gripping detail." "From Warren Buffett to Michael Milken, Sandy Weill to Henry Kravis, Peter Lynch to Alan Greenspan, from the birth of the mutual fund to the Internet bubble, from trading scandals to global meltdowns, from the rise of tycoons to the fall of giants, What Goes Up is a weaving together of larger-than-life characters and insider accounts. Eric J. Weiner has spoken to just about everybody - from CEOs to the barber in the basement of the stock exchange. For those who want to understand how Wall Street became what it is, who want to know how the biggest deals really happened, who wish they had been a fly on the wall when it all went down, this is the book."--BOOK JACKET.
