ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

The Big Short by Michael Lewis delves into the lead-up to the 2008 financial crisis, focusing on a handful of outsider investors who recognized the inherent instability of the booming subprime mortgage market. These individuals, through meticulous analysis, identified the flawed foundations of complex financial products like collateralized debt obligations (.C.D.O.s) and made significant bets against them using instruments such as credit default swaps. The book explores the opacity and recklessness within the financial industry, the role of rating agencies, and the widespread denial of the mounting risks, ultimately chronicling the events as the housing bubble began to burst and their contrarian predictions started to come to fruition.
