[HE tide of humanity that pours clown Broadway, is dashed against the bulwarks of Wall Street, and whirled to the eastward, between the mighty walls of granite and sandstone, which line that renowned thoroughfare. Through two mouths, New Street and Broad Street, it is sucked into that seething, whirling, roaring maelstrom--the stock-market. Speaking in the language of the common-place, these two streets are merely avenues in the lower part of the city for the passage of men and loaded warns, and for the transaction of business; but these streets also form the environs of the Stock Exchange, which, as from the focus of a gigantic parabolic reflector, throws a light, more or less lurid, over the whole financial community. That lofty facade on Broad Street, builded as of snowy marble of Paros, "of kingliest masonry," sinks into a modest, two-story brick rear on New Street, emblematical of the stately v PALACE OF THE STOCK-LORDS. 49 fortunes which enter that stately front, and issue diminished from that diminished rear. This is our palace of Aladdin. Here may be found that wonderful lamp which gives speedy and fabulous wealth to him who grasps it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Then, as now, fortunes could be made and lost on Wall Street in the blink of an eye. In Ten Years in Wall Street, first published in 1870, William Worthington Fowler describes the life of the pioneers of the stock market between 1855 and 1870. As well as a personal narrative, it is a history of the economy, the stock market, and the people that were its lifeblood during these years. Detailed portraits of numerous larger than life characters emerge, including such titanic figures as Cornelius Vanderbilt and Daniel Drew. While in the military sphere battles between the Union and the Confederacy raged, the financial battles between the "bears" and the "bulls" were no less violent and unlike the Civil War, did not end in 1865. Instead of Gettysburg and Shiloh, their battlegrounds were the stocks of Erie, Rock Island, and above all, gold. These companies and commodities acquire a life of their own in Fowler's narrative. Throughout Fowler never fails to make clear the risky nature of speculation that is at once its appeal and the downfall of many Wall Street men. Fowler himself was not immune to the temptations of greed - investing more into stocks when it would have been better to leave with his profits, and unable to resist the siren call of an informer's "point". For those interested in the stock market, Ten Years in Wall Street cannot fail to entertain and inform. Many of the lessons he recounts are still applicable today: Buy only on the amplest margins. Be an occasional and not a constant operator. Cut short your losses, and let your profits run. Never sell what you have not got. Ten Years in Wall Street is an invaluable guide for any investor. William Worthington Fowler (1833-1881) was a trader on Wall Street from until 1870. After leaving his career as a speculator, he took up writing and published Woman on the American Frontier in 1877 as well as Ten Years in Wall Street.

This book was released on 2022-03-31 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the annotated hardcover edition of William Worthington Fowler's classic chronicle of the New York traded markets from 1860-1880, a period that spanned the Civil War, the post war bubble, worthless paper money, the Black Friday Gold Panic of 1869, the Great Panic of 1873, and the consequent first and worst seven year Great Depression. Fowler witnessed how U.S. government paper money replaced specie leading to bubbles, panics, and crashes.William Worthington Fowler met the most influential financiers of the day including Jay Gould, James "Diamond Jim" Fisk, Jr., Cornelius Vanderbilt, Jacob Little, Daniel Drew, Leonard Jerome, Addison Jerome, David Groesbeck, and Henry Keep. Their fortunes rose and fell on margin, carry, and derivatives including puts, calls, and futures. They risked fortunes speculating in equities and a wide range of commodities including gold, silver, cotton, and more. Fowler's tale entertains as he exposes the great corners, trading rings, conspiracies, bear twists, manipulations, and frauds.High rolling traders accumulated and lost massive wealth. Wall Street ran red with the blood of suicides and murder. A lucky few survived and thrived, and of those a tiny fraction had lasting influence.This annotated edition draws parallels between the events in Fowler's time and identical issues in today's markets. This edition includes corrections, where appropriate, to the original text. Endnotes include supplemental biographical data and information of general interest.
