Relive the "Wild West" days of the British stock market in the early 18th century, when a financially-strapped government and a public craze for investing created ideal conditions for one of history's most brazen stock manipulators. Trace John Blunt's use of the South Sea Company - and bribery - to generate a stock-buying frenzy, making him fabulously rich - until the bubble inevitably burst.
Crashes and Crises: Lessons from a History of Financial Disasters. Episode 5, The South Sea Bubble.
