The Big Short Investors Who Made $135 Million

Published 2024-07-16
The Big Short is by far the best cinematic depiction of the 2008 housing bubble. Breaking down the complexities of the financial products which fuelled the crisis, while also drawing us into the emotional journeys of the few who saw the disaster forming.
But for every Michael Burry or Steve Eisman story that the movie explored in great depth, there are so many other mind-blowing elements that only earned a mention in passing.
Such as the real reason Greg Lippmann was trying to sell Eisman on the mortgage bond bet and the true genius behind Charlie and Jamie, two outsiders who found a bet way bigger than even Burry himself.
So let me take you through some of the lesser known, but honestly more bewildering stories embedded in The Big Short, as well as where some of these people are now.
A lot of the information about the big short 'characters' is thanks to Michael Lewis' book 'The Big Short: Inside the Doomsday Machine.'

Those investors who bet against the housing market and made a fortune...Crazy!
-
I love the fact that you are the fanatic of this movie. There was a time when I used to watch it everyday to a dinner. And to this day I consider it as one of the greatest movies ever made.

This video is a must-watch for anyone serious about navigating the stock market's ups and downs! The insights on upcoming earnings reports, the potential impact of unexpected events, and the strategic moves by big tech companies like Google's acquisition are invaluable. Now more than ever, it's crucial to invest in resilient assets that can withstand market volatility. Don't miss the opportunity to position yourself wisely in these uncertain times. Invest smart, stay informed, and secure your financial future! I've managed to grow a nest egg of around 2.3B'tc to a decent 11B'tc in the space of a few months... I'm especially grateful to Francine Duguay's, whose deep expertise and traditional trading acumen have been invaluable in this challenging, ever-evolving financial landscape.

Love your channel!!!! Learning so much. Thank you.
-
Nice deep dive Hamish!
-
Thanks for this video

Used to think investors lose out amid crash, meanwhile some make profits. I also thought folks went out of business during the great depression, but some went into business. Bottom line, there's always depression for some while others amass wealth gains.

Love this movie
-
I will be forever grateful to you, you changed my entire life and I will continue to preach on your behalf for the whole world to hear you saved me from huge financial debt with just a small investment, thank you Charlotte Miller.

This seems like the worst period. Even the market are now very unpredictable. Started investing recently when the market prices were a bit high,today I am more than 60% down!
-
Thank you for all your hard work Hamish!! 👏👏👏👏
-
In the movie, Jared Vannett mentioned a negative carry. That didnt actually happened?
-
Whats the book of the video
-
Nice explanation, but none of them could have made those millions, if they had actually had zero money. No way even $1000 would have been enough.
-
Hard to follow the flow and terminology
-
I just got done watching the Big Short before this video.
-
That's creepy.... I literally bought a My Heritage kit 10 mins before I clicked on this video! Apparently they're the best for genealogy for non americans

I've been making a lot of losses trying to make profit trading. I thought trading on a demo account is just like trading the real market. Can anyone help me out or at least advise me on what to do?.
