Sidoti G: Investing Against Instinct

Investing Against Instinct

The Science and Psychology of Building Lasting Wealth

The new book from the acclaimed author of Number Go Up.

Scam World

The purpose of this book is to explain the concept of portfolio, program, and project investment management and to provide the knowledge and the necessary understanding to effectively undertake the process. It begins by explaining how to understand the business problem the organization is trying to resolve with its strategy objectives. It then looks at financial management, particularly how to calculate the whole-of-life program and project capital and operational costs used to measure value for money from the investment. This information is used to inform program and project business case options analysis, investment appraisal of the initiative, and portfolio prioritization through the entire corporate portfolio management process. This book details the investment management process and how it integrates with an adapted corporate portfolio management process and benefits management process that focuses on a clear line of sight - an industry technique that ensures the achievement of strategy objectives through benefits realization. In addition, it explores specific cognitive bias that impacts and unduly influences the investment decision-making process. Finally, it describes several leading-edge techniques to make it easier to implement and sustain the discipline of portfolio, program, and project investment management.

Crypto Degenerates and the Rise of the Global Casino Economy

Financial Markets & Institutions

Over the last half-century, advanced economies have conducted a vast and largely unexamined experiment: substituting finance for production as the engine of prosperity. In The Everything Bubble, Satyajit Das examines how individuals, corporations, governments, and financial institutions abandoned thrift, productive investment, and long-term value creation in favor of debt-fueled speculation—and how this shift transformed homes, infrastructure, commodities, and technologies into chips in a global casino. The result is an age of serial bubbles, rising instability, and what appears to be wealth without substance rather than durable prosperity. The Everything Bubble shows how this speculative logic reshaped economic behavior and social expectations across the modern world, leaving policymakers, investors, and citizens trapped in a system that is increasingly fragile, yet extraordinarily difficult to unwind. At a moment when markets price perfection and governments quietly absorb mounting financial risks, The Everything Bubble provides a timely and unsettling diagnosis of the world as it is, not as it is imagined to be. It argues that speculation is no longer episodic but structural—and that its consequences, from inequality to instability to democratic erosion, are now unavoidable features of contemporary capitalism. With its global scope, accessible prose, and distinctive perspective grounded in lived financial experience, The Everything Bubble provides an invaluable guide to readers seeking to understand the forces shaping markets, states, and everyday life in the age of speculation. Written with clarity and authority, based on five decades of direct experience inside global finance, the book combines conceptual analysis with vivid, real-world examples drawn from across markets, countries, and asset classes.

When ChatGPT was launched in November 2022, it captured the imagination of the public as well as leading companies, including the banking sector. But as people explored ChatGPT they soon found flaws. Lawyers and judges realised they had relied on non-existent case law. Others discovered that ChatGPT claimed to be the author of books and articles that existed long before it was created. Despite these 'hallucinations', banks remain attracted by the claim that AI can answer and ask questions, generate text, draft emails and translate natural language to code. Customer relations have in some cases been improved by using this technology, thus cutting costs and improving productivity and profits. Drawing on original, candid interviews with senior figures in the sector, How AI will revolutionise banking analyses the risks and challenges to banks and their regulators, as well as proposed solutions to issues such as hallucinations. It offers a comprehensive, up-to-date account of this exciting new technology and what it means for the world of finance.

This book presents a comprehensive and integrated framework for managing market and liquidity risk in trading and investment portfolios. By combining theoretical rigor with machine learning-driven modeling and empirical validation, it addresses a critical gap in current financial literature: the joint modeling of interdependent risk dimensions through advanced data science techniques.The book bridges the divide between academic theory and real-world practice, demonstrating how machine learning can be systematically applied to model complex risk behaviors, capture regime shifts, and improve portfolio resilience. Traditional risk frameworks often struggle to handle nonlinear, high-dimensional, and heavy-tailed market dynamics. In contrast, this book integrates ML-based optimization techniques—covering liquidity proxies, price impact models, Liquidity-Adjusted Value-at-Risk (LVaR), and regime-switching volatility structures—to offer a more adaptive and robust risk management paradigm. Each chapter offers a balance of quantitative depth and application-oriented insight, enabling readers to connect rigorous research with day-to-day decision-making in risk and portfolio management.Mazin A.

'Excellent' Aaron Bastani 'Provocative ... An entertaining, sweeping read' Financial Times Every leader comes to power promising growth: think back to the campaigns of Boris, Truss, Sunak, Starmer, Trump. Yet real-term income hasn't improved in the UK since 2008. Across the West, growth has stagnated for well over a decade, leading to cost of living crises, political instability and rising social tensions. Is real economic growth still possible? And with the climate emergency accelerating beyond repair, should we still be pushing for it? In Icarus Economics, acclaimed economist John Rapley argues that the problem of growth is inherently tied up with the climate crisis. We often assume that poor countries will bear the brunt of climate change, pandemics, and other exogenous shocks, but this book argues the opposite: western societies have more wealth and capital to lose and are less inherently resilient. In this book, he shows us how rich countries can grow their own economies by helping poor countries to decarbonise - and in the process, mitigate the effects of climate change.
