The Wall Street Point of View

Résumé du livre

Henry Clews (1834-1923) was a British-American writer and economic expert. An ambitious young man, he moved to Manhattan, became a U.S. citizen, and started his own company as a member of the New York Stock Exchange in 1877. Clews, prominent banker and financier of the time, draws on his extensive experience and knowledge to offer insights into the workings of the stock market, banking, and investment industries. He also provides an analysis of the economic forces that shaped Wall Street during this period, including the impact of government policies and international events. He was a friend of President Abraham Lincoln and an economic adviser to President U.S. Grant. Written in a clear and accessible style, Clews’s observations are as relevant today as they were when he wrote them. The book is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the history of finance and economics.
