Abstract

Jim Simons is the greatest money maker in modern financial history. No other investor--Warren Buffett, Peter Lynch, Ray Dalio, Steve Cohen, or George Soros--can touch his record. Since 1988, Renaissance's signature Medallion fund has generated average annual returns of 66 percent. The firm has earned profits of more than $100 billion; Simons is worth twenty-three billion dollars. Drawing on unprecedented access to Simons and dozens of current and former employees, Zuckerman, a veteran Wall Street Journal investigative reporter, tells the gripping story of how a world-class mathematician and former code breaker mastered the market. Simons pioneered a data-driven, algorithmic approach that's sweeping the world. As Renaissance became a market force, its executives began influencing the world beyond finance. Simons became a major figure in scientific research, education, and liberal politics. Senior executive Robert Mercer is more responsible than anyone else for the Trump presidency, placing Steve Bannon in the campaign and funding Trump's victorious 2016 effort. Mercer also impacted the campaign behind Brexit. The Man Who Solved the Market is a portrait of a modern-day Midas who remade markets in his own image, but failed to anticipate how his success would impact his firm and his country. It's also a story of what Simons's revolution means for the rest of us. --

Abstract

"Profitant de liens privilégiés avec Simons et des dizaines des anciens cadres de Renaissance, Gregory Zuckerman, un expérimenté journaliste d'investigation du Wall Street Journal, nous raconte l'histoire captivante de ce rebelle improbable, et ancien "déchiffreur de codes", devenu mathématicien de renommée mondiale et maître incontesté des marchés. Jim Simons a lancé en pionnier une approche algorithmique d'analyse des marchés, fondée sur les données, qui a inspiré une révolution déferlant sur le monde entier. À mesure que Renaissance devenait une force incontestable sur les marchés, ses dirigeants ont peu à peu exercé leur influence au-delà du monde de la finance. Simons est devenu une figure emblématique du monde de la recherche scientifique, de l'éducation et de la politique libérale. L'ancien numéro deux du groupe, Robert Mercer, est considéré comme l'un des principaux responsables de l'élection de Donald Trump à la Maison Blanche. Il a placé Steve Bannon à la tête de la campagne et a financé les efforts victorieux de Trump en 2016. Mercer a également influencé la campagne des brexitiers en Grande-Bretagne. Craquer le code des marchés offre le portrait d'une sorte de Midas des temps modernes qui a formulé les marchés à son image sans parvenir toutefois à anticiper l'impact qu'auraient ses succès sur sa firme et sur le pays. L'ouvrage raconte également les implications de la révolution algorithmique sur chacun d'entre nous."
