In this episode I'm joined by Simon Shepherd from The Investment Newsletter Group. Simon has a wealth of experience in capital markets working at Deutsche Bank during the 90s. I've called this episode Stock Market War Stories as I believe there's valuable lessons for newcomers and seasoned investores alike. Simon shares his experience of living and working through the collapse of Long Term Capital Management (LTCM) and the upheavals of the Asian Currency Crisis.
