This book was released on 2017-04-22 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We always hear stories about how the stock market could crash, about the alarming number of bankruptcies and home foreclosures, inflation, and the skyrocketing national debt that could all cause our extremely fragile economic system to simply collapse. Have you ever asked yourself what you will do if you wake up one ordinary day only to find out that the paper money in your wallet no longer holds any value to it? There are many people and reputable economists today who believe that such a day is soon coming. Regardless of whether you believe the economy will collapse soon or not, one thing is certain: if it does collapse, it will easily create the biggest havoc throughout our country that we have ever seen. People will riot in the streets of big cities and small towns alike, and the world as you know it will completely change. No longer will you drive off to work each morning to earn money, no longer will you be able to buy what you need in the local grocery or convenience store, and no longer will you be able to enjoy food at restaurants. What's worse, is that an economic collapse will most certainly NOT be a short term disaster scenario. Rather, it will last several months if not years. What this means for you is what while there are many different potential disasters that could come your way, an economic collapse will easily be one of the most critical ones to prepare for. Once paper money becomes worthless, the items that will suddenly skyrocket in value are the ordinary items that we use every day. These are the items that you need to store not only for yourself, but for bartering and trading purposes as well, and they are the items we are going to cover in this book. Most survivalists and preppers will recommend to you that you stockpile supplies for you and your family to live off to outlast a disaster. I'm not at all disagreeing with that, but I would say that you should make a separate smaller stockpile of ordinary items that you could use for bartering and trading in a post-economic collapse world as well. The logic here is simple: when paper money becomes worthless, the new currency will become simple items that we need to use every day (food, water, toilet paper, soap, medicines, etc.). The whole purpose of bartering is to trade something that you have but that isn't as valuable to you for something that is valuable to you but that you don't have. In a long term SHTF situation, bartering and trading is going to become a part of your everyday life. Since there will no longer be any stores where you can go to purchase whatever you want or need, you will be forced to negotiate with other people instead. If you are running low on a particular item that you need for your survival, you better have something valuable that you can give in return. This is why it's important to have trading commodities that are universally recognized for their value, and this book will go over fifty two of the most valuable commodities that you can barter in a post grid down world and the reasons for each.

Download or read book Trading Smart written by Jim Wyckoff and published by www.bnpublishing.com. This book was released on 2009-07 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this information-packed book, I will share with you-in plain English-the trading philosophies and methodologies that have allowed me to survive and succeed in a fascinating but very challenging field of endeavor: Trading futures. I will also touch upon other important topics about which traders need to know in order to survive and succeed in futures trading. I think you will enjoy the format of this book: short chapters that are easily comprehended. Too many times in this industry, books on trading have been so technical and complicated that traders find themselves swimming in a sea of market statistics, computer code or mathematical formulas. You will find none of that in this book. What you will find are important lessons and anecdotes that will move you up the ladder of trading success. You will also discover valuable trading tools that you can incorporate into your own trading plan of action. Following are two of my most important trading tenets: * Like success at any other job, successful futures trading requires hard work. There are no short-cuts. This is not a "qet-rich-quick" business. * Simple trading strategies work the best. I have read the classic technical analysis books and talked face to face with the best trading professionals in the world. Most agree that, as my friend Stewart Taylor says, "Simple is Simply Better" when it comes to employing successful trading strategies. All the neural networks and powerful computers in the world won't compare to a good, basic and well-researched trading plan. Don't confuse simple strategies with easy trading. Simple trading methodologies still require a lot of preparation and work. Jim Wyckoff's Background I am into my third decade of involvement with the stock, financial and commodity futures markets. I was a financial journalist with FWN (now called OsterDowJones) for many years, including stints as a reporter on the rough-and-tumble commodity futures trading floors in Chicago, New York and abroad. I covered every futures market traded in the U.S. - and some that traded overseas - at one time or another. I was born and raised in Iowa, where I now reside. I have a wonderful wife and two great children. I work very hard on the job, but also play hard after work, as I love adventures. From driving a Jeep across the highest mountain pass in the continental U.S., to extreme winter camping in the Boundary Waters, to hiking in the jungles of South America, I'm always up for a new challenge.
Download or read book A Maniac Commodity Trader s Guide To Making A Fortune written by Kevin Kerr and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2007-03-23 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you are looking for a strong point of view that boosts the optimists' side of commodities trading, this is it. But Kevin Kerr's assurance that you can make money by trading commodities does not take into account the real risks involved, and could mislead potential traders. The truth is that the odds are stacked strongly against any investor, particularly in the now nearly-extinct open-outcry pit trading that Kerr discusses at length. However, his rundown of the basic facts about the commodities markets will give you a start in learning about this arcane investment science. getAbstract suggests that it may fit in as one among many texts you might want to study before jumping into the pit.
Download or read book Brewing Justice written by Daniel Jaffee and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2014-09-12 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fair trade is a fast-growing alternative market intended to bring better prices and greater social justice to small farmers around the world. But what does a fair-trade label signify? This vivid study of coffee farmers in Mexico offers the first thorough investigation of the social, economic, and environmental benefits of fair trade. Based on extensive research in Zapotec indigenous communities in Oaxaca, Brewing Justice follows the members of the cooperative Michiza, whose organic coffee is sold on the international fair-trade market, and compares them to conventional farming families in the same region. The book carries readers into the lives of coffee-producer households and communities, offering a nuanced analysis of fair trade’s effects on everyday life and the limits of its impact. Brewing Justice paints a clear picture of the dynamics of the fair-trade market and its relationship to the global economy. Drawing on interviews with dozens of fair-trade leaders, the book also explores the movement’s fraught politics, especially the challenges posed by rapid growth and the increased role of transnational corporations. It concludes with recommendations to strengthen and protect the integrity of fair trade. This updated edition includes a substantial new chapter that assesses recent developments in both coffee-growing communities and movement politics, offering a guide to navigating the shifting landscape of fair-trade consumption.
Download or read book Price Wars written by Rupert Russell and published by Doubleday. This book was released on 2022-02-01 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating, groundbreaking exposé of how commodity traders in New York and London have destabilized societies all over the world, leaving the most vulnerable at the mercy of hunger, chaos, and war. • With a new Afterword for the ebook. For Rupert Russell, the Brexit vote was only the latest shock in a decade full of them: the unstoppable war in Syria, huge migrant flows into Europe, beheadings in Iraq, children placed in cages on the U.S. border. In Price Wars, he sets out on a worldwide journey to investigate what caused the wave of chaos that consumed the world in the 2010s. Russell travels to Tunisia, Iraq, Venezuela, Ukraine, East Africa, and Central America and discovers that unrest in all these places was triggered by dramatic and mysterious swings in the price of essential commodities. Deregulation of the commodities markets means that food prices can shoot up even in years of abundant harvests, causing hunger and protest. Oil prices and real-estate values can surge even when supplies are normal, enriching and emboldening dictators. It is this instability--fueled by banks and hedge funds in faraway New York and London--that has toppled regimes and unsettled the West. Price Wars is a fascinating, original, and groundbreaking exposé of the power of the commodities markets to disrupt the world.
