The Anti-Bubbles [Paperback]

This book presents a thought-provoking contrarian framework that challenges the status quo and complacency of the markets as Central Banks and Governments. It tests the limits of i) monetary policy, ii) credit markets, and: iii) eventually, fiat currencies. The framework and investment thesis was published in the front page of the Financial Times written edition on the 8th August 2016 in an article called Golds Perfect Storm. The book presents a practical implementation guide on how to make money from the anti-bubbles such as gold, volatility, and correlation, and exposes common implementation mistakes, such as the debate between gold vs gold equities and physical vs paper. Conversely, instruction in how to avoid the bubbles (e.g. duration, government bonds, credit, high yield, emerging markets, and equities) is offered as well. Discussions of the hidden risks of volatility, false correlation, and liquidity are all part of the six amigos that can lead to a Lehman Squared scenario. The audience of this book are both non-finance and finance professionals
