This title in other formats:The New Paradigm for Financial Markets: The Credit Crisis of 2008 and What It Meansby George Soros
Review-a-Day (What is Review-a-Day?)"Soros doesn't have all the answers, not by any means. But unlike some of the professors who dismissed him as an overremunerated gadfly, he has something to say....Soros provides a handy eight-stage guide to the typical boom-bust cycle, together with a series of stock charts to help readers spot one in the making." John Cassidy, The New York Review of Books (read the entire New York Review of Books review) Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:In the midst of the most serious financial upheaval since the Great Depression, legendary financier George Soros explores the origins of the crisis and its implications for the future. Soros, whose breadth of experience in financial markets is unrivaled, places the current crisis in the context of decades of study of how individuals and institutions handle the boom and bust cycles that now dominate global economic activity. "This is the worst financial crisis since the 1930s," writes Soros in characterizing the scale of financial distress spreading across Wall Street and other financial centers around the world. In a concise essay that combines practical insight with philosophical depth, Soros makes an invaluable contribution to our understanding of the great credit crisis and its implications for our nation and the world.
Review:George Soros is a billionaire speculator whose voice is amplified by real money. His distaste for the Bush administration runs deep: He put millions of dollars into Sen. John Kerry's 2004 presidential campaign. Yet his account of the credit crash is personal and revealing, not mere political bashing. He admits that he didn't recognize that the crisis was about to break and came out of virtual retirement...
