"Delightfully written illustrations of how "free" and gamified trading has contributed to frenzied stock market activity with some serious warnings about the dangers facing retail investors tempted to join the wild party. The saga of GameStop and other meme stocks is revealed with the skill of a thrilling whodunit. Jakab writes with an anti-Midas touch. If he touched gold, he would bring it to life." --Burton G. Malkiel, author of A Random Walk Down Wall Street " The Revolution That Wasn't is a gripping account of the social movement that took over the investing world in 2020. The heroes here thought they were sticking it to the man, but became the man's stick. The story is told with warmth and humor, making financial concepts accessible to a lay audience. You will be entertained." --Scott Galloway, New York Times bestselling author of The Four and Post Corona "Spencer Jakab's The Revolution That Wasn't is essential, riveting reading if you want to understand the collision of long and short-term factors that sparked the remarkable "meme stonk" frenzy of 2021. Jakab adeptly skewers the popular but dangerously wrong narrative of Reddit's David thumping Wall Street's Goliath, and shows how the casino always wins in the end. DeepF***ingRespect for an important book with lessons far more durable than GameStop's stock market levitation." --Robin Wigglesworth, author of Trillions, "Ever since the GameStop saga erupted into the headlines in the winter of 2021, we've all been waiting for the definitive take.

It's a fascinating read!" --Mel Lindauer, co-author, The Bogleheads' Guide to Investing and The Bogleheads' Guide to Retirement Planning "An unputdownable post-mortem of the freakiest tale of pandemic-age finance - and of how investing became gamified. Jakab speaks with the key characters and highlights the structural issues, deploys the nihilistic "degen" jargon and recounts priceless anecdotes, cutting through the narrative to tell us what really happened during the GameStop short squeeze." --Gian M.

Synopsis
"The saga of GameStop and other meme stocks is revealed with the skill of a thrilling whodunit. Jakab writes with an anti-Midas touch. If he touched gold, he would bring it to life." --Burton G. Malkiel, author of A Random Walk Down Wall Street From Wall Street Journal columnist Spencer Jakab, the real story of the GameStop squeeze--and the surprising winners of a rigged game. During one crazy week in January 2021, a motley crew of retail traders on Reddit's r/wallstreetbets forum had seemingly done the impossible--they had brought some of the biggest, richest players on Wall Street to their knees. Their weapon was GameStop, a failing retailer whose shares briefly became the most-traded security on the planet and the subject of intense media coverage. The Revolution That Wasn't is the riveting story of how the meme stock squeeze unfolded, and of the real architects (and winners) of the GameStop rally. Drawing on his years as a stock analyst at a major bank, Jakab exposes technological and financial innovations such as Robinhood's habit-forming smartphone app as ploys to get our dollars within the larger story of evolving social and economic pressures. The surprising truth? What appeared to be a watershed moment--a revolution that stripped the ultra-powerful hedge funds of their market influence, placing power back in the hands of everyday investors--only tilted the odds further in the house's favor. Online brokerages love to talk about empowerment and "democratizing finance" while profiting from the mistakes and volatility created by novice investors. In this nuanced analysis, Jakab shines a light on the often-misunderstood profit motives and financial mechanisms to show how this so-called revolution is, on balance, a bonanza for Wall Street. But, Jakab argues, there really is a way for ordinary investors to beat the pros: by refusing to play their game., In January 2021, a motley crew of retail traders on Reddit's r/wallstreetbets seemingly brought some of the biggest players on Wall Street to their knees. Their weapon was GameStop, a failing retailer whose shares briefly became the most-traded security on the planet and the subject of intense media coverage.

Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive. Thanks, Joe
