On October 30, 2017, the Richard Paul Richman Center for Business, Law, and Public Policy held a fireside chat with Sheelah Kolhatkar, author of "Black Edge: Inside Information, Dirty Money, and the Quest to Bring Down the Most Wanted Man on Wall Street." In her book, Kolhatkar relives the challenges faced by federal prosecutors while investigating insider trading by SAC Capital, a hedge fund headed by Steve Cohen-a secretive, intense, and highly successful trader who made billions from short term investments and trading.
In this clip, 1 of 3, Kolhatkar discusses how and why she came to investigate the story, the major themes of the book, and what the Cohen case reveals about our legal system.

Is this where the story line for Billions came from?

@GregDBasham 5 лет назад

Googled and found this: "Damian Lewis' character, Bobby Axelrod, is loosely based on a real-life Wall Street guy. He's inspired by hedge-fund manager Steve Cohen of SAC Capital. In 2012, Cohen was involved in an insider-trading scandal.Mar 5, 2017"

If you do thorough research you too can become a successful retail trader.

Everything this woman stated, including her book is true and pretty riveting!! She said that the justice system is pretty broken. My dear, it’s literally fucked, not “little!”

Lmao bro I promise you there are a bunch of hard workers who aren’t rich they just don’t have the intelligence with mindset of hard working

If you make $200k/year, WELL above the average income in the United States, it would take FIVE THOUSAND YEARS to earn a billion dollars. Steve Cohen is worth somewhere around 13 billion dollars. Tell me with a straight face that man does tens to hundreds of thousands times more productive work than the average laborer - I dare you. Billionaires shouldn’t exist. The system is completely broken and it IS the fault of the opulent. If you can’t see that, you are either naïve or complicit.

She couldn't cut it as a trader so she becomes a writer. Ivy leaguers can't handle hardship and fold to become arbiters or morality and ethics. Pfft

@lavenderl9731 6 лет назад

Have you "cut" it yet yourself or come anywhere near her success in the domains she undertook?

@lavenderl9731 5 лет назад

@Magosha magoshazani Sure have. Yourself?

The only business where information advantage is illegal. What a joke non crime. Literally being better at you're job is illegal lmao. Like the law wants you to blindly just toss money at the market while pretending to be a wizard. Like as if you can read randomness to find any real consistency GTFO.

If you sell a stock before any large fall on a vast profit you will be questioned for insider trading. Larry Ellison was also subject of an insider trading case.

Do you really want people who are guilty of greed at worst, sitting in a prison in a cell with murderers, rapists, violent criminals? Whether the public feel satisfied is no measure of justice. The financial crisis was caused by thousands of people including borrowers who took out loans they knew they could never pay back. Assigning blame for an enormous event such as a financial crisis is simply not possible.

She is such a jealous person, holy moly.

Wow....MB...you catch on fast. I stopped watching the video after two minutes as I just can not listen to people who keep smacking their teeth while talking. She could not make it in the industry as it requites much more than the average effort that people put forth.
