What the Trading Floor Was Really Like Before Technology Took Over

from Beyond the Money · host Jackie Campbell

Before screens, algorithms, and instant trades, Wall Street ran on paper, voices, and human judgment. Former New York Stock Exchange examiner Joseph “Junie” Bailey Jr. joins Jackie Campbell to take listeners inside the chaotic, high‑stakes world of the trading floor from the 1970s through the 1990s. From Black Monday to the shift from paper stock certificates to digital systems, Junie shares firsthand stories of how markets really worked, how firms were regulated, and why people—not technology—were always the driving force behind finance during one of Wall Street’s most transformative eras.
