Publisher's summary

Over the years, best-selling author and renowned Harvard economist Harry Dent has accurately predicted the dot com bust of the early 2000s, the crash of the US housing market in 2006, the financial meltdown of 2008, and the plummet in crude oil prices in 2015. Now he's back with a bold new forecast - one that calls for gold to take a disastrous dive in price, all the way down to $250.

In his brand new audiobook, How to Survive (and Thrive) During the Great Gold Bust Ahead, Harry warns investors that moving their assets into gold isn't the safe haven they think it is - and why it won't protect them from the biggest market collapse since the Great Depression, set to hit in 2016.

In this shocking audio program, you'll discover:

  • The unstoppable economic forces heading our way that will result in a collapse in gold prices (chapter 1).
  • Why the inflation crisis in America is a myth, despite our money overprinting and how gold will suffer because of it (chapter 2).
  • Exactly how low gold prices will drop in the next five years (chapter 3).
  • The predictable 30-year cycle gold follows and where we fall in it right now (chapter 4).
  • Details on his "trade of the decade", which could be the safest (and best value) investment you can make over the next 10 years. But there's a limited window to get in on it (chapter 6)!

A very good Book

Great information on economics and what to do in the coming economic crash. He is very versed in history and makes the case for deflation over inflation ahead.

Very interesting

The author seems extremely convinced about his predictions and tries to convey his convinctions to the readers. I'm not sure if anyone on this earth can be so sure about future events especially related to economy, and therefore pushing people to act accordingly.
If however his predictions will be true, then we are heading to a new economical worldwide disaster. But again, is it possible that no one from the world economical and financial leaders predicted the same events or read his book and was convinced about his predictions, and will do nothing to change this fact?

Poor Harry

Dent just can’t seem to get it right. He really doesn’t seem to understand human nature. Incorrect and definitely not worth you time and especially your money. His attitude is also rather annoying.

Hyperbole Over Message

There may be lingering grains of truth in this now 7 year old audiobook. Unfortunately, Dent’s oft-repeated claims about previous predictions obscure the current prediction — as it’s being discussed.

Human nature is obdurate and society reinforcers those tendencies. That’s why I believe Dent’s cycle theory can provide forewarning — but not if Dent is the messenger.

Honest bad advice

Long story short Dent tells people to buy bonds which is pretty much the worst thing you could buy at the moment. I am not saying gold is any better, but a quick look at corporate profits screams 'stay away'. I totally understand the logic of what he is saying, the only problem with his line of thinking is keynesians are always going to do keynesian things. Central banks would never just sit back and allow the markets to be free. We in reality live in a central planned economy, and his logic only makes sense in a free market.

A buffoon

Google Harry Dent sunspot The Fourth Cycle. There he lays out his sunspot theory, in which he claims that the activity of the sun predicts recessions. For a guy who has devoted his life to studying the stock market, he should have learnt by now the concept of data mining. If you mine a large enough set of data, you're bound to find some strong correlations (like the sunspot cycle and US recessions), but most of these correlations will be just random noise. And that's what happened. He doesn't even investigate if the sunspot cycle caused recessions in every other country in the world. (You would think that other countries reside in the same spot on the solar system.)
