An excellent read. The prose is sharp, the pacing superb. Each chapter feels alive with tension, insight, and surprise. I learned many new English words and admired the elegance of the writing. Most importantly, the central lesson is delivered clearly and powerfully. What's remarkable is how little has changed on Wall Street in over a century, the same patterns, the same human nature, endlessly repeating.

Although the book has a whirlwind of events and action, I couldn't connect with the plot that seemed a bit too erratic for my taste.
