*Now a major movie starring Seth Rogen, Paul Dano, Pete Davidson, Shailene Woodley, Sebastian Stan and Nick Offerman* The GameStop Short Squeeze and the Ragtag Group of Amateur Traders that Brought Wall Street to its Knees. Bestselling author Ben Mezrich offers a gripping, beat-by-beat account of how a loosely affiliate group of private investors and internet trolls took down one of the biggest hedge funds on Wall Street, firing the first shot in a revolution that threatens to upend the financial establishment. It started on a subreddit forum called WallStreetBets – a meme-filled, freewheeling place where a disparate group of investors shared their shoot-the-moon investment tips, laughed about big losses and posted diamond hand emojis. Until some members noticed an opportunity in Game Stop – a flailing bricks and mortar video-game retailer – and somehow rode a rocket ship to tens of millions of dollars in earnings overnight, simultaneously triggering unfathomable losses for one of the most respected funds on the street. In thrilling, pulse-pounding prose, DUMB MONEY (previously published as THE ANTISOCIAL NETWORK) offers a fascinating, never-before-seen glimpse at the outsize personalities, dizzying swings, corporate drama, and underestimated American heroes and heroines who captivated the world during one of the most volatile weeks in financial history. It’s the amazing story of what just happened – and where we go from here. In DUMB MONEY, Ben Mezrich masterfully intertwines the worlds of finance, economics, and the web, creating a thrilling narrative that keeps readers on the edge of their seats. The book delves deep into the world of investments and securities, shedding light on the power of collective action in the business world. For fans of Michael Lewis (The Premonition), Bill Browder (Orden de embargo. Una historia real de blanqueo de dinero, asesinatos y... ), Reeves Wiedeman (Billion Dollar Loser), Patrick Radden Keefe (The Snakehead), and Walter Isaacson (Invent and Wander).
