Very long and detailed read about one of the greatest business collapse stories at the end of the 20th century. It shows exactly what can happen when the only thing that matters is stock price and you have incredibly smart people who are willing and capable to do anything to play the market. Sad, but real.
Also interesting contrast with the Rockafeller's biography that I recently read. The incentives were there and they played hard against the competition, but at least they had the decency to be honest and play by the market rules which were transparent.
