Don't Buy The Bull
Welcome to "Don't Buy the Bull", a podcast dedicated to unmasking the truth about, well, anything and everything!
I'm your host, Cassandra Toroian, (call me Cass). I am a 25-year veteran of the investment business, both as an ex-investment manager and Wall Street Journal all-star analyst. I've started and sold companies, and written a book called "Don't Buy the Bull" back in 2010. Now I've gone all in on technology and democratizing information for the consumer.
I'm passionate about sharing my knowledge and experiences to give a glimpse into how things like Wall Street, federal government, and start-up businesses really work. Hopefully some of what we talk about you find interesting enough to come back again and again!
What you'll get here is a combination of big-picture market stuff, the economy, sports, technology. Because yes, in my world they really do all intersect.
So if you want to learn how to make the secret sauce yourself, stand by....and let's go.
