Tata McGraw-Hill Education Pvt. Ltd., 2009. First edition. Softcover. New. No matter who you are-investor, trader, homeowner, 401(k) holder, or CEO-you are bound to feel the impact of Alan Greenspan`s ?Age of Ignorance? for years to come. According to MSN Money columnist William A. Fleckenstein, Greenspan`s nearly 19-year career as Federal Reserve Chairman is even worse than anyone imagined. Labeled ?Mr. Bubble? by the New York Times, Greenspan was nothing less than a serial bubble blower with a long history of bad decision-making. His famous ?Greenspan Put? fueled the perception of a Goldilocks economy-but, as this explosive expose reveals, the bear has finally caught up with Goldilocks. Using transcripts of Greenspan`s FOMC meetings as well as testimony before Congress, this eye-opening book delivers a timeline of his most devastating mistakes and weaves together the connection between every economic calamity of the past 19 years: * The stock market crash of 1987 * The Savings & Loan crisis * The collapse of Long Term Capital Management * The tech bubble of 2000 * The feared Y2K disaster * The credit bubble and real estate crisis of 2007 Fleckenstein explains just how far-reaching Greenspan`s mess has been flung, and presents damning evidence that contradicts the former Fed chief`s public naivete concerning shifts in the market and economy. He also points to a disturbing fact, that throughout his career, Greenspan not only made costly mistakes, but made the same ones-over and over again. And not only was he never able to recognize or admit to those mistakes, he constantly rewrote his own history to justify them. Greenspan`s Bubbles offers a lock-stock-and-barrel portrait of a flawed but fascinating man whose words and actions have led a whole generation astray, and whose legacy will continue to challenge us in the years ahead.
