The Death of the Market Manipulators
Tags
Summary
Editor's review
In the editor's view, the book's core value lies in its sober narrative and profound reflection. The author does not stop at moral criticism of market makers' tactics but probes the soil that bred them: the characteristics of a policy-driven market, the speculative psychology of retail investors, and the absence of early market rules. Reading this book is like watching a sweeping financial documentary; it not only illuminates the blood and thunder behind the candlestick charts but also deepens understanding of the origins of many rules and regulatory systems in today's Chinese capital market. For readers who wish to go beyond technical analysis and understand the stock market ecosystem from historical and social perspectives, this book offers an indispensable macro view and historical coordinates.
Who it's for
A good fit for

- Finance enthusiasts who enjoy reading business history and case studies of corporate rise and fall
- Students of finance, economics, and journalism seeking to understand Chinese market practice
- Seasoned investors seeking to avoid historical risks and cultivate market insight
Not a good fit for
- Readers looking only for quick trading tips or short-term operation guides

Reading tips
- Read in conjunction with the policy context of different stages of China's capital market, and consult financial news from the relevant periods to enhance the sense of historical presence
- Compare the book's cases with current market phenomena and consider whether "market maker thinking" exists in new forms
- Pay attention to the interplay between individual fate and the tide of the times; beyond its business value, the book also has a humanistic, reflective dimension

About the author
Chen Siwen is an author about whom limited public information is available. Five of his works are known, spanning personal finance, management, business and economics, documentary writing, and politics. Judging from titles such as The Death of the Market Maker, Speculations on the Chinese Economy, and Hopes for China in 2020, he follows the operating logic of China's economy and the risks and direction of its capital markets, and tends to approach macroeconomic issues through conjecture and inquiry. A Different 25 Years: Schneider Electric's China Story reflects his interest in using corporate history as a lens for observing multinational companies' development in China. Those Who Went into Business in Those Years clearly belongs to documentary writing, turning its attention to ordinary people who entered business after reform and opening up. Overall, his writing moves between financial analysis and documentary narrative, stays close to reality, and addresses readers concerned with economic and social change.
