Publisher's Synopsis
Product Description The world is in a massive deflationary period as shown by many countries racing to devalue their currencies. But not all countries are in the same phase of their ten year deflationary cycles. Therefore each country has its own financial objectives and international strategies. In a unique twist of fortune it appears that the U.S. Central bank has been forced by 'MAD China' to keep interest rates lower than they would otherwise be, thereby launching the United States into an upcoming decade of prosperity. Deflation has always been a dark science with much dread among economists. Politicians and pundits have described it as an evil science, but the reader will see that only through the full understanding of deflation will he or she be able to make sense of all the economic noise in the world. The reader is encouraged to put on a 'Tin Foil Hat', not listen to all the outside noise, and make his or her own decisions. Since little is known about the dark world of deflation, a number of unique new models and tools are developed to help explain what is happening in today's world. These models are likened to a set of 'Inflation Sunglasses'. Put them on and you will see what prices are going up and what prices are going down, and how to profit from that knowledge. The emotional responses that we have as kids when playing a board game are the same as those motivating the Chinese authorities to take away 'the minus dice' from the Shanghai stock market. This book takes the reader beyond economic theory and currency wars into the dark underbelly of game theory, anguish, and international intimidation and ends with scenario planning and action items. To truly profit from 'global in-deflation' you must understand it and be able to instantly read the tealeaves of change. So put on your 'Personal Prescription In-deflation Sunglasses (PPIS)' to start making profitable decisions 'in the blink of an eye'.
