In Running Money, we follow Andy Kessler as he makes the transition from striving Wall Street analyst to his initiation into the secretive world of hedge funds, and works out his own insight into the world economy--a powerful lens that reveals to him hidden value in seemingly negative trends. Kessler comes to see that current American economy, at the apex of the information revolution, is not so different from the British economy at the height of the industrial revolution and develops a powerful investing tool which he shares with readers. Contrarian and confident, Kessler made a fortune applying his ideas to his hedge fund. Which only proves that they may not be as crazy as they sound.
