Reviews for The Great Depression Ahead
9 ratings2 reviews
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This gets a four star endorsement. I'm not sure I'm 100% behind everything laid out by Dent. I'm bothered by the sometimes misaligned years he gives for the next market crash. It's late 2009, then it's early 2010 or it's 2012-14. But, that doesn't undermine the book in full for me. I like that he's hanging his predictions out there and much of the reasoning is sound. I've always been a skeptic and this book feeds into that; so I was an easy sell. What I really enjoyed was the chapter on what level risk we REALLY take when putting our cash into the market. It IS far higher than we will let ourselves believe. THAT's the danger to investing. I also liked the tip on purchasing SH to profit on a decline without buying on margin. It also makes a nice hedge if you want to keep your money in market. I'm following the author's advice for now and the next 6-9 months. If he's right, I'll be VERY happy. If not, I can adjust easily. Worth reading but be prepared: I'm not an economist, statistician, or financial adviser, but I'm fairly versed in these areas from lot's of independent reading; so while the material is not over the top, there is no time spent explaining many terms or concepts to readers. You either know it or figure it out as you go.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This book will give you many interesting things to consider as you plan your investing strategy for the coming years. The demographic trends provide a glimpse into the future, and I believe he is on the right track. I wouldn't take anything as absolute, and adjustments will need to be made, but this is a start. Overall, I found it to be thought provoking about the possibilities ahead.The book also provides a web page where you can sign up for an email newsletter for updates as the economic conditions change.
