Written 74 years ago, Dunn's main thesis was that the Financial Services Industry was doing a poor job at distinguishing for the consumer the differences between TRADING and INVESTING. One could easily argue that the same problem remains today. His 40 page thesis addresses some related topics and issues and at the end left me feeling that someone from the Financial Services Industry had just come clean with me, basically that Investment professionals are terrible speculators.
