In Flash Crash, Oliver Bullough explores the story of Navinder Singh Sarao, a reclusive trading prodigy who manipulated Wall Street and amassed millions from his childhood bedroom, then short-circuited the global market. It is a troubling exposé of the fragility of our financial system and a real-life financial thriller.

Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers


Not just a readable, pacey account of an extraordinary individual and his quixotic quest ... but also a troubling exposé of the fragility of our entire financial system ... I loved it.

Oliver Bullough, author of Moneyland, has crafted a captivating narrative that delves into the enigmatic life of Navinder Singh Sarao, a reclusive trading prodigy who emerged from his childhood bedroom to manipulate Wall Street and accumulate millions. This captivating story, reminiscent of Bad Blood and The Big Short, takes readers on a thrilling journey into the heart of the financial world. It serves as a real-life financial thriller, providing a panoramic insight into the weaknesses, crooks, and exploitable loopholes of our economic landscape. Moreover, it uncovers the remarkable, behind-the-scenes narrative of a mystifying market crash, a globe-spanning investigation into international fraud, and the man at the center of it all: Navinder Singh Sarao.

Depending on whom you ask, Sarao was a scourge, a symbol of a financial system run horribly amok, or a folk hero: an outsider who took on the tyranny of Wall Street and the high-frequency traders.

Flash Crash is a must-read for anyone interested in finance, economics, and the intricate dynamics of the global market. It offers a thought-provoking exploration of the complexities of our financial system and sheds light on the individuals who have shaped its history. Through its compelling storytelling, this book provides valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead in the world of finance.
