Clarence Saunders goes it alone, springing his trap on the bears, and all hell breaks loose on Wall Street. The Piggly Crisis that Saunders sets off, will be echoed nearly 100 years later, when an army of small investors will use Robinhood to drive the price of memestocks like Gamestop through the roof. Both events will test the limits of fair play, and challenge the powerful forces that control the stock market. ***NOTE- this episode was updated on 7/24/2024.
