Stigum's Money Market |

2007 |
|
|
|
Now in its fourth edition, this is the classic book on
the US money market. Based on hundreds of interviews with market
practitioners, it is an in-depth look at all corners of the market, from
Treasuries to repos and Eurodollar futures. Market makers, electronic
trading, and the role of the Fed are all explained. The book is rich in
history and industry folklore. There is almost no math here, just

The Eurodollar Futures and Options Handbook |
|
|
|
In 1991, the
market for swaps and related fixed income derivatives was growing explosively.
