Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American companies once focused exclusively on providing the best products and services. But today, most corporations are obsessed with maximizing their stock prices, resulting in short-term thinking and the kind of cook-the-books corruption seen in the Enron and WorldCom scandals. How did this happen? In this groundbreaking book, Lawrence E. Mitchell traces the origins of the problem to the first decade of the 20th century, when industrialists and bankers began merging existing companies into huge “combines”—today's giant corporations—so they could profit by manufacturing and selling stock in these new entities. He describes and analyzes the legal changes that made this possible, the federal regulatory efforts that missed the significance of this transforming development, and the changes in American society and culture that led more and more Americans to enter the market, turning from relatively safe bonds to riskier common stock in the hopes of becoming rich. Financiers and the corporations they controlled encouraged this trend, but as stock ownership expanded and businesses were increasingly forced to cater to stockholders' “get rich quick” expectations, a subtle but revolutionary shift in the nature of the American economy occurred: finance no longer served industry; instead, industry began to serve finance. The Speculation Economy analyzes the history behind the opening of this economic Pandora's box, the root cause of so many modern acts of corporate malfeasance.

This book was released on 2022-01-27 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the era of the appeasement of the dictators, Samuel Untermyer stands out as a champion of the human rights of not just German Jewry, but of other persecuted communities in Germany such as trade unionists, Roman Catholics and Freemasons. This is the first full biography of Untermyer, a prominent Wall Street lawyer who founded the principles on which Jewish democratic politics still stands today. The first to oppose Hitler, he organised the anti-Nazi league in the early 1930s, and proposed a unique global socialist/capitalist worldview which still informs American politics today.

Milburn and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-25 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Brief and Reply Brief Submitted on Behalf of the New York Stock Exchange to the Senate Committee on Banking and Currency March 5, 1914 and March 30, 1914, Respectively We have discussed in a separate brief the constitutionality of this bill. We propose to discuss the bill as a practical measure in this brief, assuming for that purpose, but for that purpose only, that Congress may, under its power to regulate the mails and the interstate business of telegraph and telephone companies, compel the Stock Exchange, within some defined limits, to observe certain requirements as a condition to the transmission of its quotations through the mails and by telegraph or telephone. To justify such a bill it should appear that there is a definite evil to cure, and that the bill is an appropriate and efficacious remedy.
