Lefèvre's fictional narrative of the activities of John Kent Wing, a prototypical stock trader, was written during the great bull market of the 1920s. In addition to revealing how the market works, it contributed to the new image of managers that developed during the decade: that of the virtuous public-spirited manager who puts long-term economic stability ahead of selfish interests.
