Haunted By Markets

I t is virtually impossible to find the history of the Big Four; stocks, bonds, currency and commodity futures markets to understand why they performed on a weekly basis as they did. Yes, there are books about fundamentals, charts, investing psychology and good trading habits for speculators. But the only book that offers a week by week, year by year history of the futures, is my book, Haunted By Markets.

My book is comprised of selected weekly columns I wrote and were published in a handful of weekly newspapers since the mid-1980’s. Haunted By Markets is 758 pages long and loaded with statistics and stories about what caused the various markets to do what they did. To my knowledge, there has never been a book quite like this one. There is no other book anywhere, past or present to learn about the history of the futures markets and what made prices trip the light fantastic.

To understand the futures markets, the Big Four, stocks, bonds, currencies and commodities, one must know history. Without understanding history and how markets respond to events, investors, speculators and agriculture producers are flying blind. If you do not know the history of markets, you know nothing.

I hope you will consider buying Haunted By Markets. I do not think you will be disappointed. If you are, I will eat a bug. Maybe.

After after reading and re-reading my book, you too will become haunted by markets.
