Where I heard about it
- @WillManidis’s thread — a reply to his question “what is the single best book you can read that will explain an entire industry?” in the thread, June 2025.
About this edition
The reply named only “The Repo Market,” not a specific book. Choudhry’s is the standard introductory title on the subject and the likeliest referent, but the thread does not settle it — treat the identification as provisional.
Connections
- what is the single best book… (tweet) — the saved thread this recommendation came from.
