It covers his decade of success with straightforward accounts of how he worked with managers of obscure companies to acquire large amounts of stock with minimal public disclosure, then pumped up the price and sold it, so he and the insiders made large profits while public investors usually lost. Profits were laundered through purchase of legitimate businesses and cash deposits in Swiss banks. 600 10 $a Belfort, Jordan. 650 0 $a Stockbrokers $z New York $z New York $v Biography. 651 0 $a Wall Street (New York, N.Y.) 650 0 $a Securities industry $z New York. $z New York. 941 $a 14 952 $l DFPC353 $d 20240430015337.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010015527.0 952 $l BJPD251 $d 20211215024741.0 952 $l TKPE492 $d 20211118014749.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110035833.0 952 $l MXPG943 $d 20180720042238.0 952 $l NSPC983 $d 20180711035724.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20180601010554.0 952 $l WXPD305 $d 20151203020923.0 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20150911034723.0 952 $l XWPC787 $d 20141024010412.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20140812082855.0 952 $l ZBPE245 $d 20131219024954.0 952 $l BGPE251 $d 20130822011708.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6DE91FBC6C0311DEA13FF332A8D7520A 994 $a 02 $b C@VInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
