Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book scrutinizes the practices of the New York Stock Exchange between 1912 and 1913. In the wake of public outcry over concerns regarding the integrity of stock exchange transactions, the Pujo Committee was formed and tasked with investigating the allegations. The author thoroughly documents the committee's findings, which included evidence of widespread manipulative practices designed to deceive investors and inflate stock prices, focusing on the role of prominent members of the New York Stock Exchange. The book also delves into the broader historical context of these practices, demonstrating the ways in which they contributed to the concentration of financial power in the hands of a select few. Through a meticulous analysis of sworn testimony, financial records, and other evidence, this book provides a comprehensive account of the corrupt practices and questionable tactics employed within the New York Stock Exchange during this period, offering critical insights into the need for stricter regulations and oversight to protect investors and restore confidence in the financial markets.
