分享题目： 《The Big Short》
源自美国房贷市场，席卷全球的金融危机摧毁了很多人的生计，甚至动摇了对自由资本主义的信心，对于未来世界经济走向依然有长久影响。Michael Lewis 的畅销书《Big Short》描述几个预见金融危机并获利的投资人，揭示了这场危机中的主要角色和产生机制。HELOC,MBS， CDO， CDS，这些金融产品，背后是有趣深远的故事和人性的征战。Lewis成名于房贷市场创新的投行生活《Liars Poker 》，20年后同样关于房贷市场的这本书是最值得一读的金融文学。本书去年被拍成电影,获得奥斯卡最佳影片提名。

书目介绍
《大卖空：预见史上最大金融浩劫之投资英雄传》（英语：The Big Short: Inside the Doomsday Machine）是一本由迈克尔·刘易斯所著的2000年代泡沫经济题材书籍。W. W. Norton & Company将本书发行于2010年3月15日。它成为了《纽约时报》二十八周畅销书排行榜。
The Big Short describes several of the key players in the creation of the credit default swap market that sought to bet against the collateralized debt obligation (CDO) bubble and thus ended up profiting from the financial crisis of 2007–08. The book also highlights the eccentric nature of the type of person who bets against the market or goes against the grain. The work follows people who believed the bubble was going to burst, like Meredith Whitney, who predicted the demise of Citigroup and Bear Stearns; Steve Eisman, an outspoken hedge fund manager; Greg Lippmann, a Deutsche Bank trader; Eugene Xu, a quantitative analyst who created the first CDO market by matching buyers and sellers; the founders of Cornwall Capital, who started a hedge fund in their garage with $110,000 and built it into $120 million when the market crashed; and Michael Burry, an ex-neurologist who created Scion Capital. The book also highlights some people involved in the biggest losses created by the market crash: like Merrill’s $300 million mezzanine CDO manager Wing Chau; Howie Hubler, infamously known as the person who lost $9 billion in one trade, the largest single loss in history; and Joseph Cassano’s AIG Financial Products, which suffered over $99 billion in losses.
