Whoosh Goes the Market Algorithms, Automation, and Alienation Taschenbuch von Daniel Scott Souleles Online-Deal

„Markets are messy, and no one knows this better than traders who work tirelessly to predict what they will do next. In Whoosh Goes the Market: Algorithms, Automation, and Alienation, Daniel Souleles takes us into the day-to-day experiences of a team at a large trading firm, revealing what it’s actually like to make and lose money on contemporary capital markets. The team Souleles shadows has mostly moved out of the pits and work with automated, glitch-prone computer systems. They remember the days trading manually, and they are suspicious of algorithmically-driven machine-learning systems. Openly musing about their own potential extinction, they spend their time expressing fear and frustration in profanity-laced language. With Souleles as our guide, we learn about everything from betting strategies to inflated valuations, trading swings, and market manipulation. This crash course in contemporary finance vividly reveals the existential anxiety at the evolving frontlines of American capitalism“– Über den Autor Daniel Scott Souleles is an anthropologist and associate professor in the Department of Business Humanities and Law at the Copenhagen Business School.
