| Abstract
|
:
|
"In 1982, the Dow hovered below 1000. Then, the market rose and rapidly gained speed until it peaked about 11,000. Noted journalist and financial reporter Maggie Mahar has written the first book on the remarkable bull market that began in 1982 and ended just in the early 2000s." "This inside look at that 17-year cycle of growth, built upon interviews and unparalleled access to the most important analysts, market observers, and fund managers who eagerly tell the tales of excuses, presents the period with a historical perspective and explains what really happened and why."--Jacket.
