A proposito di questo titolo
Two centuries of conspiracy theories say they run the world. The economic data says they barely survived the 20th century.
In this episode of Distilled, we strip away the antisemitic myths to reveal the cold, hard logistics behind the rise of the House of Rothschild. We cross-reference Niall Ferguson’s definitive biography with a fascinating 2025 academic paper on "Bifurcation Bias" to answer the biggest question in financial history: How did a family that mastered Europe fail to conquer America?
In this distillation, you will learn:
The True Waterloo Trade: Why the story about Nathan Rothschild crashing the stock market is a lie, and how the real fortune was made by betting on peace, not war.
The "Five Arrows" Strategy: How Mayer Amschel’s five sons acted as a human blockchain, moving capital across borders faster than kings could move armies.
The Courier Network: The reality behind their "magic" information speed (and why the pigeon post story is mostly fiction).
Bifurcation Bias: We break down the new study from the Journal of International Business Studies (2025) that explains how the family's refusal to trust their genius agent, August Belmont, cost them the American empire.
