Are You Prepared for the Great Depression Ahead? Will you be Able to Predict the Key Economic Trends That Will Impact Your Life, Your Business, and Your Investments over the Rest of Your Lifetime?

What would any reputable economist tell us? No one can predict any major events or trends past the next election or Federal Reserve policy change, as we live in an ever-changing world with increasing complexity. Or can we?

Welcome to the first comprehensive economic forecast book — The Great Depression Ahead:How to Prosper in the Crash that Follows the Greatest Boom in History, by Harry Dent — covering the trends and cycles that will affect you for the rest of your lifetime. Most economists don’t dare to do that, but Harry Dent did!

In his new book, Harry Dent outlines how this next great downturn is likely to unfold in three stages, with an interim boom stage between 2012 and 2017 before the long-term slowdown finally turns into the next global boom in the early 2020s. India, not China, will dominate in this next global boom and the U.S. will outpace Europe. Dent shows which countries will have stronger growth trends during the downturn as well. More important, he shows how the economy’s life cycle will affect life, business, and investment strategies throughout a person’s lifetime, including career opportunities and children’s educational costs. No other time period is as likely to affect your wealth and well-being as the period from late 2009 into late 2012—especially late 2009 to mid 2011.

Harry Dent accurately foresaw the recession of 1990-1991, the expansion of the mid-nineties, and the boom of 1998-2000.  Now, in The Great Depression Ahead, he predicts that our economy is on course towards a major depression, not unlike the one that struck Japan a decade ago.  The slowdown, he says, will continue for at least a decade.

The Great Depression Ahead offers much more than just doom and gloom. Dent suggests practical steps that investors can take today to inoculate themselves against tomorrow’s worst and to position themselves to take advantage of changing conditions.  Property owners, he says, should either sell immediately or prepare to hedge-perhaps by drawing equity out of a home and investing it in zero-coupon treasuries.

The economy is as volatile and worrisome as it’s ever been.  Harry Dent is one voice that no serious investor can afford to ignore.
