The Greatest Trade Ever: The Behind-the-Scenes Story of How John Paulson Defied Wall Street and Made Financial History.
In his book, The Greatest Trade Ever: The Behind-the-Scenes Story of How John Paulson Defied Wall Street and Made Financial History, veteran reporter Gregory Zuckerman tells the story of John Paulson, who rose from being “just” another successful hedge fund manager to being the man behind the greatest trade in a generation. In an era of soaring home prices and ever-more complex derivatives based on ever-more risky mortgages, John Paulson was one of the few people who had both the insight and the resources to maximize his opinion that the bubble was soon to pop.
Gregory Zuckerman is a senior writer at the Wall Street Journal, where he writes the popular “Heard on the Street” column. A WSJ veteran for the past 12 years, Zuckerman reports frequently on the world of hedge funds, investing and finance on Wall Street, and was part of the award-winning team that covered the fall of telecom giant, WorldCom.
The Big Saturday Interview is now available as an audio file, as well as a printed transcript that will be made available in a week’s time.
