Soul Reapers run everything in the Shadow World and in Hell. 🔥

For two years, I managed to stay away. 🏃♀️ Then a Soul Reaper shows up, telling me it’s time to head home. While he’s not the first to try to drag me back, he’s the first to succeed in the task. Thankfully, I arrived back in Hell just in time. ⏰
Turns out, my vision of Hell falling apart has nothing to do with me taking the throne. 😱

The Physics of Wall Street: A Brief History of Predicting the Unpredictable
James Owen Weatherall

Mathematical Physics
After the economic meltdown of 2008, Warren Buffett famously warned, “beware of geeks bearing formulas.” 💰 But while many of the mathematicians and software engineers on Wall Street failed when their abstractions turned ugly in practice, a special breed of physicists has a much deeper history of revolutionizing finance. 📊 Taking us from fin-de-siècle Paris to Rat Pack–era Las Vegas, from wartime government labs to Yippie communes on the Pacific coast, James Owen Weatherall shows how physicists successfully brought their science to bear on some of the thorniest problems in economics, from options pricing to bubbles.
The crisis was partly a failure of mathematical modeling. 😰 But even more, it was a failure of some very sophisticated financial institutions to think like physicists. Models—whether in science or finance—have limitations; they break down under certain conditions. And in 2008, sophisticated models fell into the hands of people who didn’t understand their purpose, and didn’t care. 💥 It was a catastrophic misuse of science. The solution, however, is not to give up on models; it’s to make them better.
This book reveals the people and ideas on the cusp of a new era in finance, from a geophysicist using a model designed for earthquakes to predict a massive stock market crash to a physicist-run hedge fund earning 2,478.6% over the course of the 1990s. 🚀 Weatherall shows how an obscure idea from quantum theory might soon be used to create a far more accurate Consumer Price Index. The Physics of Wall Street will change how we think about our economic future. 🌟
What drew me in: James Owen Weatherall traces the hidden history of physicists revolutionizing finance—from options pricing to predicting market crashes—while arguing that 2008’s crisis wasn’t a failure of mathematical modeling but a failure to understand the models’ limitations, offering hope for a new era of better, physics-informed financial tools. Essential reading for anyone fascinated by the intersection of science, mathematics, and money!
