Listen "History: The British East India Company"
Episode Synopsis
When rumors of untold riches in the East Indies started swirling around London's merchant class in the late 16th century, a corporation was soon formed to take advantage. Over the next 2 centuries this relatively small group would go on to be one of the world's first global empires. And while the British East India Company raised the standards of living back home, the same could not be said for India. In this podcast Nate & Dan discuss the first ever "mega-cap" stock.
