The Economics Of Inflation – A Study Of Currency Depreciation In Post War Germany [Paperback] -This work contains an impressive amount of information about inflation in Germany during the 1920s – more than enough to demonstrate the viciousness of the beast once it was unleashed. The tome also describes how people worked around the effects and how some benefitted handsomely. If double-digit inflation – or worse – were to return to America, the lessons that can be learned from this book could prove very valuable. It takes some digging to get at the “nuggets” – but these insights are well worth the effort.
Monetary Regimes and Inflation: History, Economic and Political Relationships [Illustrated] [Hardcover]“Peter Bernholz’s book brings together his comprehensive studies of inflation from the fourth century to the present, showing their common elements and their differences. This is an impressive work that bankers, central bankers, economists and laymen can read with pleasure and profit. I recommend it highly.’ – Allan H. Meltzer, Carnegie Mellon University and American Enterprise Institute, US ‘This book is about explaining inflation. It is written by one of the world’s leading political economists. His comparison of 29 hyperinflations demonstrates the crucial role of political institutions and monetary regimes. The author’s grasp of economic and political history is truly exceptional. The book fills a gap. It is the fruit of a lifelong occupation with the problem of inflation.’ – Roland Vaubel, University of Mannheim, Germany” –This text refers to the Paperback edition.
The Great Super Cycle: Profit from the Coming Inflation Tidal Wave and Dollar Devaluation [Hardcover]The United States has a problem – a big problem. Due to costs associated with the massive bailout of financial institutions deemed “too big to fail,” on-going armed conflicts, and a move towards socialism, another even bigger bubble is about to burst – the debt bubble. The Great Super Cycle: Profit from the Coming Inflation Tidal Wave and Dollar Devaluation is an intriguing look at the relationship between Washington and Wall Street; the history of political shifts in power and how those shifts influenced the global economy; and, the ways investors can profit as economies move away from U.S. dollar and debt. The book:
Discusses how a socialist America will result in the U.S. economy becoming far less competitive, while causing funds to move offshore
Details how investors can profit by investing in gold, oil, and Asian markets
Explains major cyclical movements from the mega cycle of world power to stock market cycles which last 10-20 years.
As the United States begins to deal with its massive debt bubble, The Great Super Cycle just might prove the most powerful tool an investor has for making money in the turbulent years to come.
