Zusatztext "Sold Short is a mixture of personal history and war stories about Asensio's battles with various companies. It's a walk through the sleazy side of Wall Street! providing ample evidence that analysts and mutual fund managers are quite capable of ignoring both fraud and incompetence if there's a chance to make a buck." (Fortune Magazine)"Sold Short is most useful for the detail it provides on the stock promoter's bag of tricks...the standard work are not as revealing on the social! as well as the financial! patterns that fraud takes...Sold Short is a helpful book..." (Financial Times)"Asensio's no-nonsense writing style sets his book apart from the usual staid and pompous investment coverage...his book is fun to read; its skeptical approach to Wall Street hype should find a ready audience among the millions of investors..."

Klappentext Manuel Asensio gehört zu den wenigen erfolgreichen Leerverkäufern, die über ihre Geschäfte reden. Viele professionelle und individuelle Anleger praktizieren Shortverkäufe - aber darüber redet man nicht. Asensio wird viel gelobt und auch heftig kritisiert, aber seine Methode funktioniert. "Sold Short" ist eine spannende und faszinierende Lektüre mit zahlreichen Anekdoten über Asensios Leben und die mitunter mysteriöse Praxis der Leerverkäufe. Bei Leerverkäufen verkauft man geliehene Aktien, d.h. Aktien, die man nicht besitzt, um durch einen anschließenden Kursrutsch durch Rückkauf dieser Aktien Gewinne zu erzielen. Asensio nutzt diese Methode mit großem Erfolg. Er vertraut auf das kapitalistische System, in dem jeder von steigenden Kursen profitieren will und kritisiert, wie manche Unternehmen durch manipulierte Informationen die Kurse beeinflussen. Auf diese Kurse konzentriert sich Asensio bevorzugt bei seinen Leerverkäufen und deckt damit Aktienmanipulationen von skrupellosen Unternehmen auf, die häufig in den Schlagzeilen zu finden sind, wie z.B. General Nutrition Corp. und Network Solutions. Hier verrät er einige seiner bewährten Techniken zur Minimierung des bestehenden und oft auch unvermeidbaren Risikos bei Leerverkäufen, aber auch zur Maximierung von Gewinnen. Zusammenfassung A revealing expose by one of today's most successful and controversial speculators Short-selling, or betting on a drop in the price of a stock, has been described by its many opponents as everything from shady to downright evil. And no one today personifies the practice better than short-seller extraordinaire Manuel Asensio. Inhaltsverzeichnis Diana Day Afternoon. Making of the Short Seller.
