Publisher's Synopsis
AFTERSHOCK A practical guide to preparing for the next phase of the financial meltdown "Their first book, America′s Bubble Economy , was one of those rare finds that not only predicted the subprime credit meltdown well in advance, it offered Main Street investors a winning strategy that helped avoid the forty percent losses that followed for many in the meltdown. Now they′ve done it again. Today they see more to come, another, bigger global meltdown. And they′re right on. Aftershock will teach you how to protect yourself against an increasingly hostile Wall Street–Corporate America–Washington conspiracy undermining average investors like you. This is your bible, read it, get into action, and be a winner." — PAUL B. FARRELL, JD, PhD, Columnist, Dow Jones/MarketWatch " Aftershock makes a compelling argument for a chilling conclusion. Their track record demands our attention." — SAM STOVALL, Chief Investment Strategist, Standard & Poor′s "The fragility of today′s economy demands that we, as investors, allocate our assets with more prudence and focus than ever before. The authors′ prescience in their first book lends credence to their new warnings. This book deserves our attention." — ROBERT FRIEDMAN, former CFO, Goldman Sachs " Aftershock is a superb exegesis of how our damaged economy is in for further difficulties. Since the authors hedge their predictions not at all, a second event in which they will have been proven correct will lead to a very special stature." — STANLEY GOLDSTEIN, founding partner of Goldstein Golub Kessler LLP and founder of the New York Hedge Fund Roundtable "Given the accuracy of their first book′s predictions, you have to be worried that their second book could very well be right. Be prepared and read this book." — PHILIP GROSS, founding CFO, America Online Their first book was chosen by Kiplinger′s as one of the best business books of the year. From the authors who correctly predicted the first phase of our current economic downturn in their landmark 2006 book, America′s Bubble Economy , comes an insightful sequel in which they forecast the next stage of the Bubble Economy. Written in a straightforward and accessible style, Aftershock shows readers how to seek safety and profits in these dynamic economic conditions.
