But if you are a member of the exchange, you are a big trader, and you still rely entirely on reports to make decisions?
3. Winthorpe and Valentine seemed to be market makers when they were finally on the exchange. Others trade through him. But how did they get this status? How can they have so much money? In the film, it is specially explained that all the belongings of the servant are added together. How much can that be? 1000000? How can you fight against people's wealth of hundreds of millions.
