The City of London is a collection of markets. It is capitalism's holy of holies, and right at its centre is the Stock Exchange. For the first time film cameras have been allowed on to the floor of the Exchange to record in one day the interplay of jobbers and stockbrokers -that process expressed at the end of dealing in one little figure - the Financial Times Index - the barometer of the British economy. The Stock Exchange is modern and computerised. It is housed in a splendid new building. But at heart what matters is what has always mattered - those mysterious ebbs and flows, of confidence that turn it into a sleuthe of bears or a herd of bulls. |
