Portrait of John B. Stetson by Irwin Benoni, 1895. Credit: John B. Stetson Company. Chapter Eight Sitting on Top of the World  Note: This sample chapter is from the forthcoming book Stetson: An American Icon             After conquering the West, the rapid growth of John B. Stetson &   Company after 1880 propelled the company toward another accomplishment – becoming the largest hatter in the world.

Index investing is designed to generate returns that are similar to a broad market index. This approach can reduce the risk of picking individual assets which might underperform the broad market. So, in the case of an equity index,  instead of picking say Exxon, Apple, Johnson & Johnson, and Ford, for example, you invest in the broad market.  Several new crypto index products have launched recently, offering investors new avenues into the market without some of the risks associated with putting money into single blockchain projects.  Crypto indexers take their cues from broad stock
