It features ten case studies beginning with the breakdown of the Bretton Woods fixed exchange rate system through the current situation in which investors are assessing whether China could become the next bubble. Each chapter discusses how the respective crisis or bubble unfolded at the time, the way policymakers and markets responded, and the optimal strategy for positioning portfolios.The goal is to share these experiences and the lessons from them, so investors will be better prepared for future shocks. The opening chapter explores whether there are common patterns in movements of interest rates and exchange rates that investors can exploit.  A conceptual framework is presented that helps explain why this is the case for traditional currency crises, but less so for asset bubbles.   The concluding chapter ties the episodes together and considers how the nature of financial crises has evolved since the collapse of Bretton Woods. We cite factors that make it difficult for policymakers and investors to detect problems in advance of an asset bubble. The good news is investors get a second chance to outperform when markets are over-sold; however, they need to formulate a strategy to limit the damage during the sell-off phase and to capitalize on the eventual recovery.  . 606 $aInvestment banking 606 $aSecurities 606 $aCapital market 606 $aInvestments and Securities$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/626020 606 $aCapital Markets$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/616000 615 0$aInvestment banking. 615 0$aSecurities. 615 0$aCapital market. 615 14$aInvestments and Securities. 615 24$aCapital Markets. 676 $a332 700 $aSargen$b Nicholas P$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0985823 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254877703321 996 $aGlobal Shocks$92253303 997 $aUNINA
