Publisher's Synopsis
Markets in Motion
The history of financial market performance in different economic and political environments provides clues on how the markets might behave in the future. Trends in inflation, industrial production, money supply, and interest rates can be directly correlated to stock market movements. As economic environments evolve, the ability to reference similar environments from the past give investors an edge in determining the future direction of financial markets.
Assembled by one of the world′s top research firms, Markets in Motion provides an excellent perspective on how economic performance and historic events have impacted the stock market from 1900 to 2004. Each decade is brought to life through graphical representations of the stock market, interest rates, and economic indices, and short descriptions of important political, economic, and historical events.
