Inside the House of Money: Top Hedge Fund Traders on Profiting in the Global Markets

Description

Drobny provides a broad overview of global macro investing through these diverse interviews of participants. Their diverse time frames (daily trades versus multi-year, and everything inbetween) instruments (equities, debt, currencies, domestic, international) and employers (banks, hedge funds, family home offices) demonstrate the breadth that is global macro. The book provides a great introduction to "What is this fuss about global macro investing all about?" as well as various insights into "How's it changing?" and "Is it getting too crowded?" The market insights are particularly relevant as many of the investors foresaw the 2007 market challenges. The Jim Rogers interview is especially relevant, given his recent resurgence.
