Dark Pools

The Rise of the Machine Traders and the Rigging of the U.S. Stock Market

About the book

Dark Pools uncovers the secretive world of high-frequency trading and dark pools—private exchanges where institutional traders can buy and sell large quantities of stocks without revealing their actions to the public. Scott Patterson explores the rise of machine-driven trading, its effects on the stock market, and the ethical questions surrounding it.

"Dark pools are not just a niche; they represent the largest and fastest-growing segment of the stock market, reshaping how trades are made and influencing prices." — Scott Patterson
