Movie of the week

Boiler Room (2000)

Boiler Room takes a look at business of stock broking through the eyes of a man (Seth Davis) who wishes to become rich and win the respect of his dad. He joins a fly by night stock broking firm and gets to know from its co-founder what is expected of his work and also how he can become a millionaire.

Seth later realizes that the firm’s techniques through cold calling investors to sell stock is infact a “pump and dump“, using brokers to create artificial demand in the stock of expired or fake companies leading to huge losses for innocent investors.
