L'equazione che genera MILIARDI di dollari ogni giorno

This is a Galton board with rows of pegs arranged in a triangle and thousands of small marbles falling from above. Each ball, each time it hits a peg, has a 50% [music] chance of going left and a 50% chance of going right. The trajectory is completely random. It is impossible to predict where each individual ball will end up

. Yet, if you look at what happens when you put all the balls down at once, you always get the same thing. You could repeat this action hundreds, thousands of times, but what you would get every single time is a perfect, symmetrical and predictable curve. This curve is called the normal distribution or, for friends, the

bell curve and represents an extremely fascinating fact, namely that the chaos of thousands of unpredictable events [music] collectively generates a precise mathematical order. This Galton board is at the center of one of the most exciting scientific stories of the last few centuries, from the origins of heat to an equation that can generate hundreds of

trillions of dollars. In short, this is the right video if you want to get rich by understanding the mathematics behind the world of finance. Obviously I'm joking or maybe not. But let's start from the beginning because there are a lot of things to tell. We are in Paris at the beginning of Louis

Bachellier is just 18 years old when he loses both his parents. He thus found himself managing the family business Divini , which he ran for a few years, but then sold it and moved to Paris with one goal: to study physics. To support himself, he began working at the Paris Stock Exchange. However, he enters

a world that is completely different from the academic world. It's a huge, noisy, and messy building where tons of men in suits shout out prices, exchange hand signals, and close deals in seconds. At first glance, this world seems like chaos, but Bellerlier doesn't stop at the surface and gradually begins to understand what he
