"In Financial Shock, Mr. Zandi provides a concise and lucid account of the economic, political and regulatory forces behind this binge." --The Wall Street Journal "Aggressive builders, greedy lenders, optimistic home buyers: Zandi succinctly dissects the mortgage mess from start to (one hopes) finish." --U.S. News and World Report "If you wonder how it could be possible for a subprime mortgage loan to bring the global financial system and the U.S. economy to its knees, you should read this book. No one is better qualified to provide this insight and advice than Mark Zandi." -- Larry Kudlow, Host, CNBC's Kudlow & Company "Every once in a while a book comes along that's so important, it commands recognition. This is one of them. Zandi provides a rilliant blow-by-blow account of how greed, stupidity, and recklessness brought the first major economic crises of the 21st entury and the most serious since the Great Depression." --Bernard Baumohl,Managing Director, The Economic Outlook Group and best-selling author, The Secrets of Economic Indicators "Throughout the financial crisis Mark Zandi has played two important roles.He has insightfully analyzed its causes and thoughtfully recommended steps to alleviate it. This book continues those tasks and adds a third--providing a comprehensive and comprehensible explanation of the issues that is accessible to the general public and extremely useful to those who specialize in the area." --Barney Frank, Chairman, House Financial Services Committee The subprime crisis created a gigantic financial catastrophe. What happened? How did it happen? How can we prevent similar crises from happening again? Mark Zandi answers all these critical questions--systematically, carefully, and in plain English. Zandi begins with a fast-paced overview and then illuminates the deepest causes, from the psychology of homeownership to Alan Greenspan's missteps. You'll see the home "flippers" at work and the real estate agents who cheered them on. You'll learn how Internet technology and access to global capital transformed the mortgage industry, helping irresponsible lenders drive out good ones.Zandi demystifies the complex financial engineering that enabled lenders to hide deepening risks, shows how global investors eagerly bought in, and explains how flummoxed regulators failed to prevent disaster, despite crucial warning signs. Most important, Zandi offers indispensable advice for investors who must recognize emerging bubbles, policymakers who must improve oversight, and citizens who must survive whatever comes next. *Liar's loans, flippers, predatory lenders, delusional homebuilders How the housing market came unhinged, and the whirlwind came together*Alan Greenspan's trillion-dollar bet Betting on the boom, ignoring the bubble*The subprime market goes global Worldwide investors get a piece of the action--and reap the results*Wall Street's alchemists: conjuring up Frankenstein New financial instruments and their hidden contents*Back to the future: risk management for the 21st century Respecting the "animal spirits" that drive even the most sophisticated markets

CUSTOMER REVIEWS:
A compelling read, but stops short of exposing the ful crisis. - 
I started reading this book in September 2008, so when the markets began to implode for read that month this book had provided enough understanding to realize that this was no ordinary market correction.
Financial Shock gives a very thorough explanation of the sub-prime lending crisis, how low Fed interest rates, coupled with liberal lending regulations fueled an housing market bubble that resulted in the latest market implosion, starting with toxic mortgages and foreclosures, but is now evaporating credit liquidity, given evidence to the lack of stability in U.S. markets, and tipped the world into a recession.
The book however stops short of discussing how all this will play out; indeed the author suggested in summer of 2008 that the worst was already over. The book also offers little in the way of solid advice besides to be a better student of finance and to watch for bubbles.
Nevertheless, Financial Shock is a valuable post-mortem of how the sub-prime mortgage crisis evolved and came down, focusing on this aspect. The composition of all these data in a handy format is a valuable inclusion in one's financial library.

Cogent Explanation -
This was a cogent explanation of the various factors that went into the ongoing subprime debacle. It struck a midpoint between a facile explication of the causes and more rigorous analytics for the quant-jocks.
I would have prefered more detail... but then again, I'm a bit of a quant jock.
Excellent overview of how we got where we are -
Written so even someone as financially ignorant as myself gets a perspective on what happened in the global market. Talks about the incentives that led to the subprime crisis, the unregulated markets that allowed the derivatives trading that amplified the problem. Very timely and intriguing read.
Get this book to understand out current financial problems !! -
This book is quite the eye opener !

Perfectly laying out for the readers easy understanding--it shows you the whys..the hows...and some of the whos --that enabeled and/or caused the meltdown in stocks..bonds..sub prime loans and others types of loans and gaurantees as well.
I chose this book because I want to better understand what is really happening to our country right now and more importantly WHY !!!!!!!! This book has explained it to me clearly --in languge that I can understand --and most likely a high schooler...maybe even a smart Jr. High Schooler can understand. For this reason --I give this book a high mark.

Excellent, very readable primer to mortage backed securities and the mess they created; not enough for those previously educated -
This is a well written, very clear description of the house of cards that goes by the name of mortgage backed securities. As pretty much everyone now knows, it is the collapse of this market that precipitated the current stock market collapse. In this book, the author leads you by the hand and describes how the entire mess was created, specifically how the credit-worthiness of the borrower became disconnected from the market valuation of securities derived from that borrowing.
To anyone who has watched recent financial events unfold and asked "how did this happen?" this book is VERY highly recommended.
That said, I am more reserved with my praise if you are the type of person already familiar with things like derivatives and "liar loans," and who regularly reads, e.g. The Wall Street Journal. I am in that category, and while I still found this book interesting, I found myself more often saying "yes, obviously" than "wow, I didn't know that until now."
One other shortcoming of this book is that it really doesn't offer much meat to gnaw on with respect to 'how do we get ourselves out of the current mess?' That's not surprising, really as this book was written before the current melt down (although the timing of the release could not have been better) and because the answer to that question is one to which a consensus answer has not appeared even among the world's brightest and more learned minds.
Nonetheless, I would VERY strongly recommend this book to financial neophytes and those who simply weren't paying that much attention to the mortgage mess as it was unfolding.
