The Alpha Masters (ePub)

The ultimate behind-the-curtain look at the hedge fund industry,
unlocking the most valuable stories, secrets, and lessons directly
from those who have played the game best.

Written by Maneet Ahuja, the hedge fund industry insider,
The Alpha Masters brings the secretive world of hedge funds
into the light of day for the first time. As the authority that the
biggest names in the business, including John Paulson, David
Tepper, and Bill Ackman, go to before breaking major news, Ahuja
has access to the innermost workings of the hedge fund industry.
For the first time, in Alpha Masters, Ahuja provides both
institutional and savvy private investors with tangible, analytical
insight into the psychology of the trade, the strategies and
investment criteria serious money managers use to determine and
evaluate their positions, and special guidance on how the reader
can replicate this success themselves.

There are few people with access to the inner chambers of the
hedge fund industry, and as a result it remains practically
uncharted financial territory. Alpha Masters changes all
that, shedding light on star fund managers and how exactly they
consistently outperform the market. The book:

* Contains easy-to-follow chapters that are broken down by
strategy--Long/Short, Event Arbitrage, Value, Macro, Distressed,
Quantitative, Commodities, Activist, pure Short, Fund of
Funds.

* Includes insights from the biggest names in the trading game,
including Ray Dalio, Marc Lasry, Jim Chanos, Sonia Gardner, Pierre
Lagrange, and Tim Wong.

* Features contributions from industry icon Mohamed El-Erian

Many of the subjects profiled in this groundbreaking new book
have never spoken so candidly about their field, providing
extremely provocative, newsworthy analysis of today's investing
landscape.
