Who killed Wall Street? Andy Kessler, a former hedge fund manager who's written two memoirs on his time in the financial markets (Wall Street Meat, Running Money), has performed a forensic analysis and is ready to reveal his findings. Offering a fresh, informed, and thought-provoking perspective on our current financial crisis, Kessler will discuss what went wrong-and what's to come. Following Kessler's presentation we will hear from a panel of experts on a strategy for recovery, including a new role for regulatory agencies, policies for smoothing the cycle of "boom and bust", and how a return to the core competencies of financial institutions could restore faith in, and functioning of, the markets. We'll also discuss how the election results will affect Wall Street's future.
