Through the Whirlwind

This text is a direct sequel to "Riding the Business Cycle", many of whose predictions came to pass in 1995 - the forecast drought hit China, Russia and even the USA, and it was the dryest summer since 1729. As economies start to falter, nations are competitively devaluing their currencies and the world is awash with debts that will never be repaid. Commodity prices have already broken out of their trading range which could cause rocketing inflation into 1997. The downwave is even hitting Japan and it is continuing to hit Britain. Starting from an understanding of cycles, this work develops and creates strategies for business and investment to navigate the turbulent times ahead. It its predecessor concerned what was about to happen, this book considers a vital question: what can be done about it?
