Jamie Cohen is new on Wall Street. But technology stocks are trading at record highs, the Nasdaq is off the scale, everyone wants a piece of the action and few people understand any of it. The insights Jamie learnt as a hacker make him indispensable in this new world. The upside is that everyone can trade options. The downside, no one has any options.
As the mania for on-line share dealing turns the ordinary citizens of New York into rabid day-traders, Jamie is increasingly troubled by hallucinations. Everywhere he looks, people seem to be turning into bulls. Jamie resolves to break the cycle of greed - using desperate measures.
Jamie Cohen provides a first-hand account of the dawn of e-commerce in the twenty-first century. However, because the manuscript was only discovered two hundred years later, the future editors have included helpful footnotes explaining the significance of such cultural phenomena as Microsoft, Geraldo Rivera and Feng Shui. Proving that, in the future, no one will recognise bull.
