Summary of David Einhorn's Fooling Some of the People All of the Time
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 My father, a chemist, decided to start an MA business in the basement of our house in Demarest, New Jersey. It was a difficult business, and he was paid mostly on contingency. He eventually moved the business out of the house and it became successful. #2 I majored in government at Cornell University, but became more interested in economics after I interned at the Office of Economic Analysis at the SEC in Washington. I wrote my thesis on the cyclical regulation of the U. S. airline industry. #3 I began working at DLJ in 1991. I did not understand the culture of the company, and I spent weeks researching a company before meeting with the executives to discuss the opportunity. I would not know the answers to any of Peter’s questions after a couple of years. #4 I made the initial business plan on a napkin with Jeff Keswin. I would be the portfolio manager, while he would be the marketer and business partner. I did not know where I would raise the initial capital, but I thought we could start with $10 million. My parents invested $500,000.
Fooling Some of the People All of the Time, A Long Short Story
"In 2002, Einhorn spoke publicly about Allied Capital--a leader in the private finance industry--presenting it as an excellent short opportunity. Einhorn describes the incredible events that followed his speech and how Allied and the investment community attacked him to protect the company--and its stock price. Informative and intriguing, "Fooling Some of the People All of the Time" details how the current environment on Wall Street--and the world of hedge funds in particular-- not only allows for such behavior, but how it protects the companies and attacks those who attempt to uncover them".--Résumé de l'éditeur.
