Not my Grandfather’s Wall Street: Diaries of a Derivatives Trader

The career of a fictional numbers-oriented young man is recounted from the 1980 Hunt Silver Crisis to the 1987 stock-market crash and the 1999 fall from grace of a guru hedge-fund manager. Barclay Leib ’81, writing under the pen name David von Leib, based Not My Grandfather’s Wall Street on his 35 years working with investment banks and hedge funds.
