摘要
In today’s episode, Shawn O’Malley (@Shawn_OMalley_) discusses The Alchemy of Finance by George Soros. George Soros is a controversial political figure, but he is a legend on Wall Street. Many know him as the man who “broke the Bank of England” for his epic short bets against the British pound that broke its currency peg. Soros’s hedge fund is among the best performing ever, generating billions of dollars in wealth and giving rise to a number of Soros’s protégés who would make their own names for themselves.
You’ll learn about Soros’s life growing up in Nazi-occupied Hungary, how he went from immigrant to hedge fund titan, why philosophy and abstract thinking were critical to Soros’s success, Soros’s unique theory on investing called Reflexivity and how it has helped him throughout his career, which shortcomings Soros identified in markets, how he used reflexivity to profit from a boom in conglomerates, plus so much more!
