So hätte es nicht kommen dürfen. Drei Jahre sorgten zwei Nobelpreisträger und ein gewiefter Wall-Street-Händler dafür, dass superreiche Investoren mit dem Finanzdienstleister Long-Term Capital Management noch reicher werden konnten. Plötzlich aber brach das Kartenhaus aus Schulden, milliardenschweren Spekulationen und internationalen Arbitragegeschäften in sich zusammen. Long-Term Capital stand vor dem Ruin. Roger Lowenstein zeichnet eine der größten Geschäftspleiten der Menschheitsgeschichte detailgetreu nach. Vom kometenhaften Aufstieg bis zum tiefen Fall von Ltcm. Packend erzählt wie ein Krimi.
