The collapse of America’s credit markets in 2008 is quite possibly the biggest financial disaster in U.S. history. Confidence Game: How a Hedge Fund Manager Called Wall Street’s Bluff is the story of Bill Ackman's six-year campaign to warn that the $2.5 trillion bond insurance business was a catastrophe waiting to happen. Branded a fraud by the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times and investigated by Eliot Spitzer and the Securities and Exchange Commission, Ackman later made his investors more than $1 billion when bond insurers kicked off the collapse of the credit markets.
——Unravels the story of the credit crisis through an engaging and human drama
——Draws on unprecedented access to one of Wall Street's best-known investors
——Shows how excessive leverage, dangerous financial models and a blind reliance on triple-A credit ratings sent Wall Street careening toward disaster
Confidence Game is a real-world quot;Emperor's New Clothes,quot; a tale of widespread delusion and one dissenting voice in the era leading up to the worst financial disaster since the Great Deion.
