Description

Mark Ingebretsen (au). What started as a Depression-era organization designed to combat stock market fraud -- & struggled for decades as the black sheep of Wall Street -- is now vying with the venerated N.Y. Stock Exchange as the global icon of corporate wealth. This book reveals Nasdaq’s history, heroes, & shadowy secrets -- everything that made it the most powerful engine of capital creation for companies around the world & a fickle mistress to millions of investors. It’s a story that reaches from the stodgy brokerages & seedy boiler rooms of N.Y. to the billion-dollar start-ups in Silicon Valley, from the farthest reaches of Europe & Asia to the hometown investors. You’ll realize what most people don’t know, or don’t understand, about the Nasdaq.
