Lewis expertly details how a group of brokers, all from different firms, learned that the market was rigged for insiders, and controlled by major Wall Street banks. The "Flash Boys" each figured this out separately and, together, they formed an alliance to reform the market by eliminating the advantage inherent with high-frequency trading. Following his #1 New York Times bestseller The Big Short, Michael Lewis returns to Wall Street to tell of the greatest predator ever to hit the equity markets. Each member represents the exact opposite of what you think of when you hear the words "Wall Street." Each traded millions in yearly salary for a fight for the greater good. They use their new podium to investigate exchanges and the firms that specialize in high-frequency trading, while bringing light to many other ways that people cheat the system. Think this doesn't apply to you? It applies to more people than you think, even if you only have a retirement account.
