Una ingeniosa y esclarecedora guía de supervivencia para la jungla financiera En todas las profesiones, el propósito de la jerga técnica es confundir a los legos y excluir a los que no son parte del gremio. También en la industria financiera es habitual darle la vuelta como un calcetín a las palabras para que su significado acabe siendo justamente el opuesto. Jason Zweig, periodista financiero de larga trayectoria y buen conocedor de Wall Street, se ocupa en este libro de esclarecer las complejidades, oscuridades y pomposidades de la jerigonza bursátil. Y lo hace mediante definiciones sucintas que todo el mundo pueda entender. Emulando la obra maestra del escritor satírico Ambrose Bierce, El diccionario del diablo, Zweig ha escrito su propio diccionario financiero del diablo, con divertidísimas acepciones que muestran el verdadero significado de los eufemismos financieros. Pese a su tono humorístico, este libro es una herramienta fundamental para dominar las múltiples formas en que Wall Street usa el lenguaje para ocultar información y poner por delante intereses espurios. Porque si uno no comprende el galimatías de Wall Street, puede acabar optando por la inversión errónea y ver su sueño de una jubilación próspera reducido a cenizas. El diccionario financiero del diablo es la guía definitiva que permitirá a los inversores vacunarse frente a los engaños que impone la hipocresía del vocabulario de los banqueros, los brókers y los asesores financieros.
