The 1980s in Music

The 1980s were defined by Reaganomics, financial deregulation, and the rise of Wall Street's cowboy culture. The decade saw Black Monday in 1987 — the largest single-day percentage drop in stock market history — as well as the junk bond boom, the savings and loan crisis, and the birth of modern quantitative finance. Insights from this era illuminate how deregulation and leverage can fuel extraordinary growth and catastrophic risk in equal measure.
