Synopsis

For over fifteen years, "New York Times" bestselling author Harry S. Dent, Jr., has been uncannily accurate in predicting the financial future. In his three previous works, Dent predicted the financial recession of the early nineties, the economic expansion of the mid-nineties, and the financial free-for-all of 1998-2000.p"The Next Great Bubble Boom" -- part crystal ball, part financial planner -- offers a comprehensive forecast for the next two decades, showing new models for predicting the future behavior of the economy, inflation, large- and small-cap stocks, bonds, key sectors, and so on. In taking a look at past booms and busts, Dent compares our current state to that of the crash of 1920-21, and the years ahead of us to the Roaring Twenties. Dent gives advice on everything from investment strategies to real estate cycles, and shows not only how bright our future will be but how best to profit from it.Dent gives us all something to look forward to, including: plThe Dow hitting 40,000 by the end of the decade lThe Nasdaq advancing at least ten times from its October 2001 lows to around 13,500, and potentially as high as 20,000 by 2009 lAnother strong advance in stocks in 2005, with a significant correction into around September/October 2006 lThe Great Boom resurging into its final and strongest stage in 2007, and even more fully in 2008, lasting until late 2009 to early 2010/ulDent's amazing ability to track and forecast our financial future is renowned, and here he takes that ability to the next level, showing not only what our economy will look like but also how it will affect us as individuals, as organizations, and as a culture. From the upcoming wealth revolution to the essential principles of entrepreneurial success, the book describes a new society where economic and philanthropic development go hand in hand. In "The Next Great Bubble Boom, " Dent shows not only how the economic growth of the late 1990s was a prelude to the true great boom right around the corner but how all of us can reap its benefits.

BookLender review by Palmer on 2007-11-04 09:32:47

This author is all about patterns in price behavior. I was a technical price analyst many years ago and believe that it is a sad way to invest. Never the less, some of his observations about industry booms are interesting - I wish that it didn't take 4 CDs/hours to hear a couple of nuggets. The book is very repetitive in trying to prove their thesis. Also, I think that they tend to ignore data that doesn't fit their thesis. There is also no mention of the fundamentals in the economy that where driving some of the boom and busts - like heavy interest rate manipulations and wars.
