In 2008, Wall Street brought the economy to the brink of collapse with a shell game based on bankrupt

mortgages… Nine years later, the stock market is sky high again, and the game has gone global. There

are no good guys in this story, but there are a few people—a ragtag band of short sellers—who are sick

of being lied to. The China Hustle follows their story through Wall Street, China and your retirement

savings to uncover the biggest heist you’ve never heard of.
