Download or read book Super Boom written by Jeffrey A. Hirsch and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-03-10 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prosper from the profitable opportunities of the next financial market super boom In 1976, Yale Hirsch predicted a fifteen-year super boom—a move in the stock market of 500% or more. His forecast proved accurate as the market rose and continued upward, eventually posting growth over 1,000% just before the tech crash in 2000. In Super Boom, Jeffrey Hirsch, President of the Hirsch Organization and Editor in Chief of the Stock Trader's Almanac, unveils the next market expansion. Building on his father's research from 1976, Hirsch has discovered that meteoric rises in stock indices are due to specific catalysts predominantly outside of the financial markets. History has a way of repeating itself, especially in the financial markets. The American economy, and subsequently the world economy, has always existed in a cycle of boom and bust: gold, grain, oil, technology, and most recently, real estate, have all bubbled and popped. The key to investing profitably is spotting macroeconomic historical trends and positioning to reap the benefits. Step-by-step, Hirsch puts together the pieces of this puzzle by revealing the central drivers of a super boom. Examines how new cultural paradigm-shifting technologies, as well as peace between major wars, could fuel a super boom Discusses how the massive injection of money by the government, in response to the global financial crisis and the Great Recession, as well as wartime spending, will eventually create an inflationary environment The data and research found here is based on historical information and the boom-and-bust cycle of the past century As markets and economies struggle over the next several years, remember to keep your eye on the future and get ready for the coming super boom and the next 500% move in the market. With this book as your guide, you'll benefit from the insights that only Jeffrey Hirsch can provide.

Download or read book Bubbleology written by Kevin Hassett and published by Currency. This book was released on 2002-07-23 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are only two types of stocks: those safe from bubbles and those that are not. This is a fact of investing many discovered as they saw their fabulous gains whittled away by the extreme calamity of the Internet sector. But what about the future? Is there a way for investors to capture the enormous potential for profit that exists at the frontier of the economy, the place where innovation and genius operate, without placing their fortunes in jeopardy? Is there a way to evaluate price increases—and declines—and identify whether they are happening for good or bad reasons? Bubbleology makes it possible to separate the winners from the losers. It is a brilliant, practical, and original analysis of the stock market that bashes the conventional wisdom about bubbles, showing that such famous examples as Tulipomania were not, in fact, bubbles at all. Bubbleology shows that the traditional way of evaluating risk—equating it with volatility—is inherently flawed and incomplete. If a stock fluctuates a lot in price it is regarded as risky. If the price is stable, then it is not. What this simplistic way of thinking leaves out is the simple fact that companies trying something completely new that may fundamentally alter the economic landscape are operating at the frontier. The stock of such a company swims in a sea of ambiguity, its circumstances uncertain, since there is little to provide guidance about the future. But when nobody knows for sure what will happen, pundits tell us again about Tulipomania, the South Seas Bubble, and now the debacle of the Internet to scare investors away from potentially enormous profits. To realize those profits, however, investors have to understand the role that uncertainty and ambiguity—the absence of reliable information about future events—play in the modern stock market. Those who equate ambiguity with bubbles will miss the great opportunities of the future. Bubbleology provides a new way to observe what is really going on in the market, enabling you to understand whether a stock or a sector is suspicious—whether it is in a bubble and therefore something to be avoided. Finding bubbles requires knowing where to look and what to look for. Bubbleology will help you avoid both streaming into speculative manias and shying away from perfectly good business opportunities. It tells you why you need to avoid both pontificating pundits and overconfident stock analysts. With this unique and forward-thinking book, you can inspect suspicious stocks, accurately discern risk, and diagnose a blossoming bubble before it vanishes along with your money.

Download or read book Pop Finance written by Brooke Harrington and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2010-02-22 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1990s, the United States underwent a dramatic transformation: investing in stocks, once the province of a privileged elite, became a mass activity involving more than half of Americans. Pop Finance follows the trajectory of this new market populism via the rise of investment clubs, through which millions of people across the socioeconomic spectrum became investors for the first time. As sociologist Brooke Harrington shows, these new investors pour billions of dollars annually into the U.S. stock market and hold significant positions in some of the nation's largest firms. Drawing upon Harrington's long-term observation of investment clubs, along with in-depth interviews and extensive survey data, Pop Finance is the first book to examine the origins and impact of this mass engagement in investing. One of Harrington's most intriguing findings is that gender-based differences in investing can create a "diversity premium"--groups of men and women together are more profitable than single-sex groups. In examining the sources of this effect, she delves into the interpersonal dynamics that distinguish effective decision-making groups from their dysfunctional counterparts. In addition, Harrington shows that most Americans approach investing not only to make a profit but also to make a statement. In effect, portfolios have become like consumer products, serving both utilitarian and social ends. This ties into the growth of socially responsible investing and shareholder activism--matters relevant not only to social scientists but also to corporate leaders, policymakers, and the millions of Americans planning for retirement.

Download or read book Future Babble written by Dan Gardner and published by McClelland & Stewart. This book was released on 2010-10-12 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2008, as the price of oil surged above $140 a barrel, experts said it would soon hit $200; a few months later it plunged to $30. In 1967, they said the USSR would have one of the fastest-growing economies in the year 2000; in 2000, the USSR did not exist. In 1911, it was pronounced that there would be no more wars in Europe; we all know how that turned out. Face it, experts are about as accurate as dart-throwing monkeys. And yet every day we ask them to predict the future — everything from the weather to the likelihood of a catastrophic terrorist attack. Future Babble is the first book to examine this phenomenon, showing why our brains yearn for certainty about the future, why we are attracted to those who predict it confidently, and why it’s so easy for us to ignore the trail of outrageously wrong forecasts. In this fast-paced, example-packed, sometimes darkly hilarious book, journalist Dan Gardner shows how seminal research by UC Berkeley professor Philip Tetlock proved that pundits who are more famous are less accurate — and the average expert is no more accurate than a flipped coin. Gardner also draws on current research in cognitive psychology, political science, and behavioral economics to discover something quite reassuring: The future is always uncertain, but the end is not always near.

Download or read book Dow 36000 written by James K.. Glassman and published by Valor. This book was released on 2000 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce livre va libérer les investisseurs de bien des dogmes et changera le sentiment général sur la Bourse. Quel est le message qui a été martelé en permanence au grand publie par les spécialistes des médias et les soi-disant experts de marchés : " Les actions ont atteint des niveaux stratosphériques... Elles sont risquées... Nous allons tout droit à la catastrophe. " James Glassman et Kevin Hassett ont entendu ce message pendant des années et se demandèrent pourquoi l'inverse se produisait. Au lieu de baisser, les cours boursiers ne faisaient que monter. Est-ce que la Bourse défiait la loi de la gravité, ou d'autres forces étaient-elles en jeu ? Dow 36 000 est le résultat de l'enquête qu'ils ont menée. C'est un des livres les plus importants et les plus provocants qui aient été écrits récemment sur l'investissement. L'analyse originale et irréfutable qu'ils font de la situation ainsi que les conseils pratiques qu'ils prodiguent afin de vous faire bénéficier, vous aussi, de la poursuite de l'avancée des marchés, devraient inspirer tous les investisseurs - du néophyte au plus expérimenté. Les actions sont sous-évaluées et non pas surévaluées. Les cours des actions pourraient bien doubler, voire quadrupler, en très peu de temps. Le Dow Jones Industrial Average atteindra vite les 36 000 points. Le " Prix Parfaitement Raisonnable ". Les prix sont trop faibles parce que les investisseurs et Wall Street ont évalué les actions avec des mesures inadéquates. Dow 36 000 donne un nouveau modèle - une nouvelle façon de mesurer ce que vaut une action en fonction de l'argent qu'elle distribuera à l'actionnaire. Comment investir en toute confiance. Glassman & Hassett mettent entre les mains de l'investisseur une stratégie raisonnable destinée à l'enrichir en devenant un " 36milliste " discipliné. Les investisseurs avaient besoin depuis longtemps d'un nouveau guide leur permettant de comprendre ce qui se passe en Bourse. Dow 36 000 leur donne cette explication. C'est un nouveau paradigme.
