Conquer the Crash: You Can Survive and Prosper in a Deflationary Depression

Front Cover
Wiley, Jun 28, 2002 - Business & Economics - 294 pages
What if certain Japanese investors in 1989 had a book that prepared them for the economic DEFLATION and 12-year bear market? Likewise, what if certain American investors in 1929 had a book that prepared them for the stock market CRASH and Great Depression?

They would have used the forecast to avoid the crisis, of course -- perhaps even to come out ahead.

Robert Prechter has just published a book that will prepare YOU for a financial crisis at least as deep as Japan in the 1990s or the U.S. in the 1930s -- a deflationary depression that will wipe out the portfolios of most stock market investors.

Conquer the Crash first presents the economic facts that show why a massive deflation is virtually inevitable, and is underway already. The second part is practical -- virtually each of the 21 chapter titles explains "How To," "What To," and "Should You."

Learn for yourself why the most predictable episode in our financial future is the event no one expects
