This documentary film explores the biggest one-day stock market crash in U.S. history. On an otherwise nondescript Monday in October 1987, global stock markets crashed with the New York stock market losing 25% of its value, and the Toronto market losing over 11%. Interestingly, many of these markets bounced back the following day with record setting gains.
Join us for this upcoming roundtable discussion!
Since early 2010 several previously unknown investment firms have issued “research reports” with reports with strong sell ratings attached. The report begins with a disclaimer advising the reader that the author of the report has already shorted the subject company. The report then details a series of concerns, often including misappropriation of assets, lack of revenues or outright fraud. Almost instantly the share price drops anywhere from 12-80%, generating huge profits for the short seller, virtually overnight.
