The Real Story of the Taming of Wall Street Amid its Darkest Days
Listen now
Description
Diana Henriques, author of the new book, "Taming the Street: The Old Guard, The New Deal, and FDR's Fight to Save American Capitalism", joins the show to talk about how President Franklin Delano Roosevelt and a small group of men revolutionized Wall Street after Black Thursday with the establishment of the SEC and other agencies. Plus, how today's financial regulators are under pressure, and the risks that pose to all investors. And, investors are finally coming around to the Fed's 'Higher for Longer', mantra, and that is keeping stocks under pressure.
