Publisher's summary

Now in its second edition, Boombustology is an authoritative, up-to-date guide on the history of booms, busts, and financial cycles. Engaging and accessible, this popular audiobook helps investors, policymakers, and analysts navigate the radical uncertainty that plagues today's uncertain investing and economic environment.

Author Vikram Mansharamani, an experienced global equity investor and prominent Harvard University lecturer, presents his multi-disciplinary framework for identifying financial bubbles before they burst. Moving beyond the typical view of booms and busts as primarily economic occurrences, this innovative audiobook offers a multidisciplinary approach that utilizes microeconomic, macroeconomic, psychological, political, and biological lenses to spot unsustainable dynamics. It gives the listener insights into the dynamics that cause soaring financial markets to crash. Cases studies range from the 17th-century Dutch tulip mania to the more recent US housing collapse.

The numerous cross-currents driving today's markets - trade wars, inverted yield curves, currency wars, economic slowdowns, dangerous debt dynamics, populism, nationalism, as well as the general uncertainties in the global economy - demand that investors, policymakers, and analysts be on the lookout for a forthcoming recession, market correction, or worse.
