1. Bull!
A History of the Boom and Bust, 1982-2004
A narrative history of the long U.S. bull market from 1982 to 2004, revealing how monetary policy, deregulation, demographics, 401(k)s, mutual funds, analysts, media hype, and Wall Street incentives fueled extraordinary gains and rising risk. It traces the build-up to the dot-com bubble and corporate scandals, showing how conflicts of interest and investor psychology amplified excess, and examines the painful unwinding after 2000, offering lessons about financial cycles and protecting ordinary investors.
