Written by the chief economist of Standard & Poor's, What's the Economy Trying to Tell You? shows you exactly what signs to look for when you're thinking of choosing stocks and other investment products ... buying and financing a home ... evaluating career options ... and more. Learn how to spot periods of inflation and periods of recession in advance, understand the decisions the Federal Reserve makes and how they affect you, "read" business cycles with the trained eye of a pro, limit the damage that an inflationary economy can inflict on your pocketbook, learn precisely which numbers - the debt, the deficit, the GNP, the CPI - matter and which don't, and much more!
