MR. MARKET MISCALCULATES：THE BUBBLE YEARS AND BEYOND

Book ID/图书代码： 08B25239

English Summary/英文概要： Why is America in financial crisis today? This book, better than any to date, explains it all-how we got here and where we are going. The how we got here is brilliantly described in a collection of pieces from Grant’s Interest Rate Observer, the Wall Street insider’s Bible. The where we are going is treated in Jim Grant’s up-to-the-minute introduction. No fan of Greenspan or Bernanke, Grant tells the unvarnished truth about America.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 有些評論出版後一週就失去價值了，但James Grant機智幽默的金融建言值得你一讀再讀

此書收錄了時事通訊作家詹姆士．葛蘭特(James Grant)對於此次美國次貸引起的一系列金融風暴的觀察與評論，到底為何整個金融體系會變成這樣，更重要的是要往哪走。詹姆士是《葛蘭特利率觀察家》的編輯，許多財金專家皆十分推崇James Grant與《葛蘭特利率觀察家》的精闢分析，包括原投資銀行家與作家的Michael M. Thomas。
早在數年前，華爾街的觀察家還在討論”聯邦利率增加的風險”時，James Grant即提出”房價的風險是在於借款標準而非利率”。他也曾大肆批評嘲笑穆迪 (Moody’s) 和標準普爾 (Standard & Poor’s) 企業債券評級機構。這些評等制度也在此次金融風暴爆發後被認為需要付很大的責任。
James Grant總是以慧詰、機智、幽默的口吻，ㄧ針見血地指出各種金融體制與市場缺失，提出各項前瞻性建言。 (VC)

Awards/获奖情况： Collected from speeches and editorials by Grant, the editor of Grant’s Interest Rate Observer, these essays are remarkable for their prescience: two years before subprime mortgages collapsed, the author described them as "not one borrower left behind" and when other analysts were worried about the effect of a Fed interest rate increase, he foresaw that the "risk to house prices lies not with interest rates but with lending standards." Other chapters attack bubbles in stocks and the dollar with erudition and wit ("Economics, mistaking itself for physics, is wont to turn up its nose at history, but the past has much to teach"; "as dress on Wall Street has become more casual, so have the monetary arrangements... the gold standard and swallowtail coats have given way to Greenspan and open-neck shirts"). It’s hard to imagine reading any other investment newsletter even a week after publication. Grant’s is the exception; it paints on a larger canvas and is infused with the author’s generous spirit and rich sense of humor. (Nov.) ---Publishers Weekly
