Stock Market Wizards

The world's top stock traders reveal the secrets to their success in this updated volume by the acclaimed author of Market Wizards. Since his 1989 classic Market Wizards, Jack D. Schwager has gotten inside the minds of high-performing traders like no one else can. In Stock Market Wizards he delves into the wild financial landscape of the twenty-first century: a time that witnessed the most dynamic bull market in US stock history, a collapse in commodity prices, dramatic failures in some of the world′s leading hedge funds, the burst of the Internet bubble, a fall into recession and subsequent rumblings of recovery. Who were the market wizards during this tumultuous financial period? How did some traders manage to significantly outperform a stock market that during its heyday moved virtually straight up? This book features interviews with a variety of traders who achieved phenomenal financial success during the glory days of the Internet boom. In contrast with the first two Market Wizard books, which included traders from a broad financial spectrum—stocks, bonds, currencies and futures—this volume will focus on traders in the stock market.
