The Big ShortThe Big Short Full Book Introduction This book mainly tells the story of how several ordinary Wall Street workers found out the secret of the bond market, realized the crisis hidden under the "subprime" bubble, and got rich by shorting the market. The book also reveals the dark side of American financial institutions and financial rating agencies. It analyzes the various causes of the financial crisis. Author : Michael LewisThe author of this book is Michael Lewis. He graduated from Princeton University and the London School of Economics and Political Science. He served as a bond trader at Salomon Brothers, and was also a writer for The New York Times and an editor of The Observer. His famous book, Liar's Poker, is widely regarded as a classic depiction of Wall Street culture in the 1980s. He is also the author of Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game, The Blind Side: Evolution of a Game, and Home Game: An Accidental Guide to Fatherhood. Overview | Chapter 1Hi, welcome to Bookey. Today, we will unlock for you the book, The Big Short. Speaking of the U.S. subprime crisis, we believe you are already familiar with it. The crisis began in the spring of 2006. At the time, many Americans that borrowed money to buy homes couldn't afford their bank loans. They sold their homes, and housing prices plunged, which triggered an economic crisis that engulfed the housing and financial markets. By August 2007, the crisis had influenced the financial markets of the U.S., the European Union, and Japan. It also brought unimaginable damage to the famed Wall Street. However, some saw the crisis well before the bubble burst. While everyone else was dreaming of making money, they shorted the market and made handsome profits and became one of the few people to make a fortune during a financial disaster. They performed what the book calls the "big short." So, who are they? How did they manage to see the situation clearly? That is the story of The Big Short. The book was written by American best-selling author, Michael Lewis. His bestselling books include Liar's Poker, The New New Thing, and The Big Short. Forbes chose both Liar's Poker and The New New Thing as "the 20 most influential business books of the 20th century." He is currently a contributing editor of Vanity Fair. In The Big Short, Michael Lewis' ability to capture the ins and outs of financial trading and the way people think and behave has a lot to do with his own experience. In his early years at Wall Street's top investment bank, Salomon Brothers, he gained deep insight into the financial industry. As soon as it was published, The Big Short became the go-to-book for people who wanted to study the financial crisis of 2008. In 2015, the book was adapted into a film that won the Oscars for Best Adapted Screenplay. While the film focuses more on Wall Street's greed, what we're going to unlock focuses more on what caused the financial crisis and how people responded to it. Next, we will explain the core content of the book from three aspects. Part I: What caused the U.S. subprime crisis? Part II: The truth behind the bubble and why were people were so optimistic? Part III: Who benefited from the financial disaster after the bubble burst?

To sort through the hectic action, WUNC's Capitol Bureau Chief Colin Campbell spoke with Hannah Schoenbaum, political reporter for The Associated Press, and Dawn Vaughan, Capitol bureau chief for The News & Observer.

This weeks episode of The Spiritual Investor Podcast is all about turning inward for clarity about the cycles and habits in our lives that may be pulling us out of neutrality and keeping us at a lower money frequency. When your goals start to seem overwhelming or unobtainable, your daily practices and self awareness are what give you the power to shift your own perspective and achieve what you really want. Instead of envisioning the end result of your goals, focus on what you can change right now in order to get you one step closer to that goal. When you look at your life and your money from the perspective of the neutral observer, you'll be able to see when something isn't working. Having that type of clarity gives you the power to implement changes from a place of non-judgement, which helps you shift back into neutrality so that you can continue raising your money frequency. We have an upcoming LIVE workshop! For more information visit https://www.elizabethralph.com/ or follow me on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/elizabethralph/

Vince discusses how the new North Carolina Voter I.D. law could affect 2024 elections. The News and Observer reports: With the new North Carolina Supreme Court decision that came Friday about using voter ID for elections, there could be changes ahead for voters in the 2024 presidential election. Challengers failed to prove lawmakers discriminated by passing the voter ID law, the court said in a decision on Holmes v. Moore. The now majority-Republican Supreme Court reversed the December decision made by the previous court that was majority Democrats. So what does this actually mean for voters? “The most basic level, it means you're gonna need an ID to vote in 2024,” Western Carolina University political science professor Chris Cooper told The News & Observer on Friday. That and much more on The Vince Coakley Radio Program. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

For more than a year the possibility of peace in Ukraine has seemed out of reach. But this week, a new world leader stepped in with an offer to mediate. After months of waiting, this week Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky spoke with Chinese President Xi Jinping over the phone.

Emma Graham-Harrison is the senior international affairs correspondent for The Guardian and The Observer. She has lived in China and is currently reporting from Ukraine. Today, she takes us through what Xi Jinping is proposing, whether China could bring peace to Ukraine and whether there is reason to be skeptical.
Discovering the Enneagram was the key to helping Kelli Thompson get out of her head, move through doubt and rumination, and take action. “It was really just a journey of how do you bring your life back into alignment with your values, learn to trust your heart and your gut, and that they have just as much merit as your brain, and then how do you use that to speak up and set boundaries, and take next steps forward and to make confident decisions,” says Kelli. In this episode, Kelli shares the importance of bringing the three centers of intelligence into balance and how to navigate gender stereotypes as an Enneagram 5 in the workplace while not losing yourself in the process. ––– Kelli Thompson is a women's leadership coach and speaker who helps women advance to the rooms where decisions are made.

Diane Abbott, Britain's first black woman MP, is the latest prominent figure of the radical left to be suspended from the Labour Party: this time over a letter to the Observer opining that while many groups experience prejudice, only black and brown people experience racism. The left's response? Deploy the "always apologise, always explain" strategy. Olly keeps it reasonable, and James just rants about the absolute collapse and paucity of the British public sphere since the Corbyn moment... and the decline of the "Rent-a-Gob of the left".

Simon and Rachel speak to David Wolf, who runs the Long Read section of the Guardian newspaper, publishing in-depth reporting, profiles and essays. David has worked at the Long Read since the section was founded in 2014 – first as commissioning editor, then overall editor. During that time, the Long Read has published over 1,000 pieces and David has personally edited articles on a wide variety of subjects, from profiles of the French President and Britain's most successful estate agent, to stories about Leni Riefenstahl, Hindu Supremacism and "proper" binmen.

On March 22nd, the Future of Life Institute, a nonprofit organization focussed on reducing existential risks facing humanity, and in particular existential risk from advanced artificial intelligence (AI), published an open letter entitled Pause Giant AI Experiments. Its signatories included tech luminaries such as Elon Musk, and Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak. Its opening sentences read:“AI systems with human-competitive intelligence can pose profound risks to society and humanity, as shown by extensive research and acknowledged by top AI labs… Advanced AI could represent a profound change in the history of life on Earth, and should be planned for and managed with commensurate care and resources.”But given the kind of AI available today, are these kinds of concern justified? Is Chat GPT, for example, really a kind of intelligence? And if so, are governments capable of taming it and channelling its capabilities for the benefit of humanity, rather than its destruction? John Naughton is a Senior Research Fellow at Centre for Research in the Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities (CRASSH), University of Cambridge and Emeritus Professor of the Public Understanding of Technology at the Open University. He is also the technology columnist of the Observer newspaper. Pease leave us a rating and a review on Apple Podcasts.This podcast is created in partnership with The Philosopher, the UK's longest running public philosophy journal.
