"Adam Smith continues to dazzle and sparkle!

"Nobody has written about the craft of money management with more insight, humor, and understanding than Adam Smith. Over the years, he has consistently separated wisdom from whimsy, brilliance from bluster, and character from chicanery." Byron R. Wien, coauthor of Soros on Soros Chief Investment Strategist, Pequot Capital Management
Supermoney may be even more relevant today than when it was first published nearly twenty-five years ago. Written in the bright and funny style that became Adam Smith's trademark, this book gives a view inside institutions, professionals, and the nature of markets that has rarely been shown before or since. "Adam Smith" was the first to introduce an obscure fund manager in Omaha, Nebraska, named Warren Buffett. In this new edition, Smith provides a fresh perspective in an updated Preface that contextualizes the applicability of the markets of the 1960s and 1970s to today's markets. Things change, but sometimes the more they change, the more they stay the same.
原文摘录

The era of speculation described in The Money Game—and in Supermoney—began in the early 1960s and was pretty much over by 1968, only to be succeeded by yet another wave of speculation—albeit one that was starkly different in its derivation—that drove the stock market ever higher through early 1973. Then the bubble of that era burst. By the autumn of 1974 the market had fallen by 50 percent from its high, taking it back below the level it reached in 1959, 15 years earlier. (查看原文)
These two books quickly became part of the lore of investing in that wild and crazy era. In retrospect, however, they provided Cassandra-like warnings about the next wild and crazy era, which would come, as it happens, some three decades later. The New Economy bubble of the late 1990s, followed by, yes, another 50 percent collapse in stock prices, had truly remarkable parallels with its earlier counterpart. Surely Santayana was right when he warned that “those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” (查看原文)

有的故事很有意思，但比Go Go差了些，没有整体感，另外时代感很强，现在很多东西有点过时，Smith的文笔也有些绕，但还算寓教于乐吧

最后一章老鼠屎坏了一锅粥。作者的政治评论压根没法和其金融写作能力相提并论。四星是给第三章第五节打的。凯恩斯动物意志一段有趣。动物意志是短视过度乐观甚至非理性的，但其阶下的不尽失败却是创新和发展所必须的。投资恰好相反，要求的是极端的理性。创业者瞄准月球，好的投资者猜测谁会降落群星中
