Summary

A forward-looking guide to the changes that will impact the investment environmentJohn Mauldin is a recognized expert and leader on investment issues, who has the unique ability to present complex financial topics in an accessible manner. In his latest book, The Millennium Wave, Mauldin explains how we are entering a decade where change will come faster and be more profound than at any time in history, and gives investors the strategies necessary to profit from what he predicts will happen. Mauldin describes the Millennium Wave as a combination of multiple innovation waves (the Information, Biotech, Quantum, and Energy waves) coupled with profound societal changes (demographics, the increase in globalization, and significant geopolitical changes). He contends that all these events or 'waves' will occur in such a short period of time that they will create one of the greatest investment opportunities ever seen-as whole new companies and processes are created. The Millennium Wave prepares investors for these seismic technological and societal shifts, and reveals how nimbleness and an ability to make decisions-rather than passively investing in indexes-will help investors take full advantage of these upcoming changes. Filled with in-depth insight and practical advice, The Millennium Wave will show investors how they can benefit from the single largest period of transformation in human history.John Mauldin (Arlington, TX), President of Millennium Wave Advisors, is primarily involved in private money management, financial services, and investments.
