Wall Street

The WOLF or the BULL, what is the SYMBOL of Wall Street?   🐮 Wall Street BULL, or the CHARGING BULL, is the iconic bronze sculpture created by artist Arturo Di Modica depicting a bull rearing its horns. The BULL in finance represents OPTIMISM and GROWTH. The statue on Wall Street represents the same ideas, those of FINANCIAL GROWTH and PROSPERITY associated with America, WALL STREET, and New York City. A forceful allegory of “bullish” market optimism, it has become the de facto symbol of Wall Street and the Financial District and has become a popular tourist attraction in New York City.   🐺 On the other side, the WOLF of WALL STREET is associated with FRAUDULENT ACTIONS and the DISSOLUTE LIFE of Jordan Belfort. Jordan Belfort was a stockbroker who SEDUCED many INVESTORS who trusted him and bought PENNY STOCKS, but in the end, THEY LOST their stakes. Between 1989 and 1996, Jordan Belfort ran the Stratton Oakmont brokerage, which functioned as a BOILER ROOM, and its brokers SPREAD FALSE and MISLEADING INFORMATION to increase interest in buying stocks and thus artificially "inflate" their value. After that, they sold them at an inflated price, and when they got rid of them, they would stop recommending them (“PUMP and DUMP SCHEME”), share PRICES would FALL, and investors would LOSE MONEY. “I got GREEDY,” Belfort commented of his WRONG-DOINGS, outlined in his memoir The Wolf of Wall Street. “GREED is not good. AMBITION is good, PASSION is good. Passion prospers. My goal is to GIVE MORE than I get, that’s a SUSTAINABLE form of SUCCESS.” 🎬📽 The life of Jordan Belfort inspired Hollywood directors for two feature films – Boiler Room in 2000 and The Wolf of Wall Street in 2013. *I wrote about the Jordan Belfort case in my book BUSINESS ETHICS, 2nd edition (in Croatian) 📚📙 #compliance #complianceprofessionals #wallstreet #businessethics #stocks #fraud
