Market Wizards - Traders Interviews

Traders Interviews

Schwager kicks off the series of interviews-and hence the investigation into their thought process- by talking to a man he describes as one of the pioneers of commodity trading- Michael Marcus of Canmarc Trading Co. His discussion with Marcus is typical of the book as a whole. The reader effectively eavesdrops on a conversation between the two men that starts with how Marcus got into the business and continues through subjects such as the skill necessary to become a good trader.

Famous quotes containing the word interviews:

    What a perpetual disappointment is actual society, even of the virtuous and gifted! After interviews have been compassed with long foresight, we must be tormented presently by baffled blows, by sudden, unseasonable apathies, by epilepsies of wit and of animal spirits, in the heyday of friendship and thought. Our faculties do not play us true, and both parties are relieved by solitude.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
