While it is still too soon to state unequivocally how this latest economic disaster came about, it is possible to theorize that much of what has happened could have been foreseen and even avoided-just as it could have been in 1929. This book accurately describes the economic situations in the United States before the 1929 and 2008-2009 stock market crashes, and carefully examines the causes of both financial crises. This comprehensive assessment of both time periods allows readers to better grasp the present market situation, understand the connection between the explosion of the sub-prime mortgage market and the current state of the economy, and more wisely forecast the future. 606 $aStock Market Crash, 1929 606 $aGlobal Financial Crisis, 2008-2009 606 $aBear markets$xHistory 606 $aInvestments 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aStock Market Crash, 1929. 615 0$aGlobal Financial Crisis, 2008-2009. 615 0$aBear markets$xHistory. 615 0$aInvestments. 676 $a330.973/0916 700 $aBierman$b Harold$0151177 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456391303321 996 $aBeating the bear$92293093 997 $aUNINA
