In his most prescriptive book to date, financial expert and investment advisor James Rickards shows how and why our financial markets are being artificially inflated—and what smart investors can do to protect their assets

What goes up, must come down. As any student of financial history knows, the dizzying heights of the stock market can't continue indefinitely—especially since asset prices have been artificially inflated by investor optimism around the Trump administration, ruinously low interest rates, and the infiltration of behavioral economics into our financial lives. The elites are prepared, but what's the average investor to do?

James Rickards, the author of the prescient books Currency Wars, The Death of Money, and The Road to Ruin, lays out the true risks to our financial system, and offers invaluable advice on how best to weather the storm.

有升必有降。任何研究金融历史的学生都知道，股市令人眼花缭乱的高度不可能无限期地持续下去--特别是由于投资者对特朗普政府的乐观情绪、破坏性的低利率以及行为经济学对我们金融生活的渗透，资产价格已经被人为地抬高。精英们已经做好了准备，但普通投资者该怎么做呢？

詹姆斯-里卡兹是《货币战争》、《货币之死》和《毁灭之路》等有先见之明的书籍的作者，他阐述了我们的金融体系面临的真正风险，并就如何最好地度过这场风暴提供了宝贵的建议。
