內容簡介
暢銷書《2014-2019 經濟大懸崖》、《2017-2019 投資大進擊》作者哈利‧鄧特二世，曾預言民粹主義將撼動世界，現在，民粹主義已推動了英國脫歐、美國川普當選，以及全球諸多動盪。在本書中，他將告訴你如何在反全球化的浪潮中，保護你的投資與資產，甚至從中獲利。
2020 年代將是全球經濟的一大轉折，數個政治、經濟與人口週期同時罕見地跌至低谷，將造成巨大的金融崩壞與政治動盪，規模與破壞程度將大於 2000 年代的金融海嘯，甚至超越 1930 年代的「經濟大蕭條」。我們正走向鄧特所說的「經濟寒冬」。
這些週期影響著我們日常生活的每個方面，從匯率到選舉結果，從亞洲的經濟成長率到歐洲的出生率。你將從本書中了解：
1. 為什麼近幾年最炫目的科技（例如自動駕駛、人工智慧、虛擬實境和區塊鏈）要到2030年代才會創造出龐大的新經濟？
2. 為何中國可能是全球經濟最大的泡沫？
3. 為什麼你該投資的領域是照護與醫藥產業，而且應該完全撤出房地產市場與汽車業？
4. 為何不該再繼續相信黃金會保值？
本書將提供許多實用的策略，幫助你將眼前的動盪扭轉為機會。
The turn of the 2020s will mark an extremely rare convergence of low points for multiple political, economic, and demographic cycles. The result will be a major financial crash and global upheaval that will dwarf the Great Recession of the 2000s—and maybe even the Great Depression of the 1930s. We’re facing the onset of what Dent calls “Economic Winter.”
In Zero Hour, he and Andrew Pancholi (author of The Market Timing Report newsletter) explain all of these cycles, which influence everything from currency valuations to election returns, from economic growth rates in Asia to birthrates in Europe. You’ll learn, for instance:
• Why the most-hyped technologies of recent years (self-driving cars, artificial intelligence, virtual reality, blockchain) won’t pay off until the 2030s.
• Why China may be the biggest bubble in the global economy (and you’d be a fool to invest there).
• Why you should invest in the healthcare and pharmaceutical industries, and pull out of real estate and automotive.
• Why putting your faith in gold is a bad idea.
Fortunately, Zero Hour includes a range of practical strategies to help you turn the upheaval ahead to your advantage, so your family can be prepared and protected.
