The Essential Guide to Winning on Wall Street

Two of the world's leading researchers on behavior and decision-making join forces to equip readers with the knowledge, tools, and techniques to live our best, most human lives in an age of machines. “The real problem of humanity is the following: We have Paleolithic emotions, medieval institutions and godlike technology. And it is terrifically dangerous.” —E.O WilsonOur choices and experience of the world are increasingly shaped by powerful interests and godlike technology. Somebody else is deciding what ‘good’ choices look like—and often that means good for them, not for you. From the social media apps hijacking your attention and algorithms quietly curating your reality, to the markets profiting from confusion and AI systems slowly eroding your thinking: your choices are shaped by people who understand your psychology better than you do, and use that knowledge for their own ends. Against this backdrop, it is easy to feel diminished and 'done to'.This book is about fighting back—individually and collectively—and becoming the best of ourselves. Becoming super-humans. Drawing on over 1,000 experiments run across more than 70 countries, Halpern and Costa show how you can boost your own agency and decision-making, how we can upgrade our systems and institutions so that it is easier for everyone to choose well, and how we can shape AI so that it amplifies human capability rather than replacing it.Super-Human ultimately asks us to make the biggest choice of all: in an age when machines can think, decide and even feel on our behalf—what kind of humans do we want to be? <ul><li>Human. Reclaiming agency and becoming a better decision-maker (Chapters 1-3). Understanding how human attention and sense-making works, so that we can self-guide, rather than be hacked by others - and more effectively turn our intentions into action.</li><li>Supra-human. Building systems that support us to choose well together. (Chapters 4-7). Humans are social creatures, who think aloud and together. It's a feature not a fault. Social networks, markets and institutions strongly enable us to achieve things we could never do alone, but also operate as ‘supra-human’ influences on our behavior. Yet individually and collectively we have power to channel and shape them too - more power than we realize</li><li>Super-human. Shaping the technology that will shape us. (Chapter 8) AI could be the ultimate ‘bicycle of the mind’, but it can also become a crutch rather than a coach. It poses opportunity and challenge - to boost our capabilities to superhuman levels, or to become our inadvertent master.</li><li>Future-human. What kind of humans do we ultimately want to be? (Conclusion) Our minds today have been shaped by the technologies and institutions of our ancestors, in ways they could not have anticipated. We can make choices that will alter our minds and those that follow: what shall we choose?</li></ul>

Reclaiming Our Power to Choose and Shape the Future

Super-Human

No one should ever need to get rich twice. With a foreword by Michael Lewis. By the end of 1929, Jesse Livermore was one of the richest men in the world, having shorted the market straight into the crash. Five years later, he filed for bankruptcy for the third time, and this time there was no coming back. He bet enormous sums on single stocks, borrowed to the hilt, and lived so lavishly he could never step back. Had index funds existed, he would have scoffed at them. Livermore's life is a case study in what happens when you do the opposite of every principle in this book. Get Rich Once: and Other Financial Wisdom for Our Younger Selves is written for people in their 20s and 30s, right at the start of their financial lives. It's the book Victor Haghani and James White wish someone had handed them at that age. Between them, they've worked the trading floors and research desks of Salomon Brothers, Bank of America, LTCM, and Citadel. They learned early that professional market expertise and good personal financial decisions are two very different things -- they broke most of their own rules, and it cost them dearly, in money and in sleep. This book brings a new way of thinking to every financial decision you'll ever make: how much to spend and save, what to invest in, whether to buy or rent, what to insure, when to borrow, and how to outsmart the three psychological biases that hurt investors most. Inside, you'll find: <ul> <li>seven core principles for making better decisions under uncertainty</li> <li>a five-star screen for narrowing the investment universe to a manageable set</li> <li>specific, low-cost fund recommendations</li> <li>practical guidance on accounts, cards, and taxes</li> <li>a single number that tells you exactly what your savings can support</li> </ul> It's relentlessly practical, and it's achievable on an ordinary income, no unusual luck required, no heroic frugality, no schemes. The authors walk you through the reasoning behind every recommendation, so when life hands you a decision this book doesn't cover, you'll know how to work it out yourself. And unlike stock picking, none of it is zero-sum. Your success never depends on someone else's loss. If everyone followed these principles, everyone would come out ahead. From the authors of The Missing Billionaires, one of The Economist's Best Books of 2023.

An insider's account of how technology replaced traders and reshaped Wall Street Million Dollar Frat Boys: How Wall Street's Tech Geeks Took Over and Changed the Game chronicles the four-decade transformation of financial markets from testosterone-fueled trading pits to algorithm-driven operations. David Weisberger, co-founder of CoinRoutes and a 40-year veteran of firms including Morgan Stanley, Salomon Brothers, and Citigroup, delivers a first-person account that challenges popular myths about modern markets. Million Dollar Frat Boys traces Weisberger's career from pioneering the first program trading system at Morgan Stanley through the rise of automated risk management and quantitative strategies.

It is equally suited for tech enthusiasts and digital asset investors seeking to understand how algorithmic trading continues to reshape finance.

The emergence of financial technologies has unlocked a myriad of possibilities for reshaping governance systems, from the grassroots level of micro-governance to the broader scope of national and transnational governance. This book thoroughly examines the significant impact of cutting-edge financial technology on enhancing worldwide access to financial services. In an era marked by persistent governance challenges, it highlights the transformative potential of AI-driven solutions in fostering more equitable economic participation. Overcoming traditional banking barriers to serve underserved and unbanked communities, the book investigates the fourth wave of fintech innovation depicted by AI, blockchain technologies and decentralized systems. The book begins by presenting the fundamentals of digital innovation, particularly emphasising the transformative role of AI-powered financial tools in improving banking experiences for various global communities. It emphasizes the role of digital payment platforms in bridging the gap between urban and rural populations, as well as the way blockchain technology and smart contracts are setting new benchmarks for transaction security and transparency. Its primary focus is on the strategies for overcoming financial exclusion. Cybersecurity compliance, ethical AI, data governance, and regulatory coordination are considered essential for creating trustworthy digital financial systems. Additionally, it thoroughly examines the alternative credit scoring methods that use non-traditional data to transform lending and presents the opportunities and challenges that will shape the future of finance, with a particular emphasis on central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), sustainable blockchain solutions, and artificial intelligence collaborations. For scholars, researchers and policymakers working to create a more accessible and sustainable financial future, the book offers a thorough overview of the state of inclusive fintech today and a predictive outlook on how technology can promote global economic equity.
