Forty Years of American Finance The War Period in American Finance oyes warns against the belief on Wall Street that America had entered a New Era that (adv 88). Always critical of unchecked speculation and current trends, Noyes consistently emphasized his belief that clues to the contemporary marketplace are revealed by a historical knowledge of finance: The Speculative Markets, differs so greatly from any in the past that old-fashioned precaution is out of date [The speculative 1901 bull market assumed] that we were living in a New Era; that old rules and principles and precedent of finance were obsolete; that things could safely be done to-day which had been dangerous or impossible in the past. This illusion seized on the public mind in 1901 (in New York at any rate) quite as firmly as it did in 1929. It differed only in the fact that there were no college professors in 1901 who preached the popular illusion as their new political economy. ( 195) The Market Place This style of historical analogy, illustrated above by his comparing the speculation of 1901 and the Depression of 1929, is a staple of Noyes' prose. EB; 8vo 8" - 9" tall.
