關於作者：
VICTOR NIEDERHOFFERa s storied career as a speculator spans
more than twenty--five years. In the introduction to Practical
Speculation, Vic describes the rollercoaster his hedge fund rode
from No. 1 in 1996 to the debacle in 1997 that forced him to close
his fund. Rather than giving up, he wrote this book "figuring that
by trying to teach others, I might learn something myself,"
apparently with some success. Niederhoffer was ranked No. 6 for the
year 2003 among 200 managed futures hedge funds in the TASS
database, and is No. 4 in the performance rankings through
mid--2004. Niederhoffer is the author of the critically acclaimed
Education of a Speculator as well as numerous groundbreaking
academic articles about markets. A magna cum laude graduate of
Harvard, he holds a doctorate in economics from the University of
Chicago Graduate School of Business. He is a five--time national
champion in squash and claimed the world title in 1976. LAUREL
KENNER has written several hundred columns on the stock market with
Victor Niederhoffer for CNBC money, Active Trader magazine,
worldlyinvestor.com, and TheStreet.com. She previously spent five
years as chief U.S. stocks editor at Bloomberg News and five years
as an award--winning aerospace reporter for Copley Newspapers.
