  An inside look at the high-stakes trading floors of major financial exchanges and the men and women who hold the chipsSonny Kleinfield spent months with individual traders on five of America’s biggest financial exchanges. The investors he followed are the ultimate gamblers, trading only for themselves, not for clients, and sometimes going “all in” on stocks, options, and, ultimately, their own futures.

Acclaimed reporter Kleinfield gets inside their minds and worlds, showing what drives them to a stressful, high-stakes profession.From the trading floors of the New York Stock Exchange, Chicago Board of Trade, Chicago Mercantile Exchange, Commodity Exchange Center, and American Stock Exchange, Kleinfield delivers a riveting portrait of a dying breed of go-for-broke entrepreneurs.

  From the bottom to the top of our economy, capitalism is too blunt an instrument to tackle Britain's epidemic of inequality.Soaring rents, unfair taxation and a growing gig economy have brought about unprecedented economic shame: Amazon warehouse workers living in tents, nurses turning to foodbanks, London firemen commuting hundreds of miles to work.Even those higher up the ladder are losing their grip on the life they were promised. Barristers take home less than the minimum wage and doctors are starting out with £100,000 student debts on salaries lower than the national average. We're all facing a new economic phenomenon - in-work poverty. At the same time a generation of young professionals is coming to terms with never being able to own even the cheapest home in their area.The only way to reverse the damage is if everyone feels they have a financial stake in society.“How the system became rigged so that even the fortunate lose out: a masterpiece.” DANNY DORLING, author of Inequality and the 1%

  To gain a competitive edge in the manufacturing industry, one needs to have a thorough discernment of the demographic trends and buying habits of the target audience. People need to be abreast of the industry drift and the competitive status to decide the business objectives. Once people have drawn up the objectives, they need to devise a strategy to attain those targets. Strategic planning entails recognizing the threats and prospects demonstrated by the business enterprise. What are inner manufacturing strengths and weaknesses? Does the business have the resilience and monetary capacity to address these threats and take advantage of those opportunities presented in hand?  
  It is not all aspects that should comprise the strategy at once. One needs to concentrate on a component where the gap can be plugged and get a competitive advantage. Serving the needs of this issue in the industry becomes a strategic goal. Strategic marketing takes into consideration the business's long-term goals like business expansion, discovering new demographics, or generating a new brand. Thus, it involves an in-house financial department's expertise that can determine the fund allocation to reach the preset goals.
