In the process, you learn how to Deal with "abnormally low" and negative risk-free rates in valuation Adapt to dynamic and changing risk premiums Value young companies that are disrupting existing businesses Analyze commodity and cyclical companies across cycles Value a company as the sum of its parts or as an aggregation of its users/subscribers and customers Determine the difference between pricing and valuation, and why some investments can only be priced

How to Listen When Markets Speak
A New York Times bestselling author and leading expert on market risk argues that seismic shifts in the global economy will trigger a multi-trillion-dollar migration of wealth, outlining new rules of investing for the forward-thinking. "I can't tell you how much I learned from How to Listen When Markets Speak. The historical perspectives and insights are something every investor needs to know. Buy this book."--Mark Cuban From Wall Street to the White House, the fantasy of an eventual "return to normal" is still alive and well, nurtured by dangerously outdated theories. But the economic world as we know it--and the rules that govern it--are over. In the coming decade, we'll witness sustained inflation, a series of sovereign and corporate debt crises, and a thundering of capital out of financial assets into hard assets. Few are prepared. Lawrence G. McDonald, founder of the economic research platform The Bear Traps Report, got a real-world education in market risk when, as a Lehman Brothers VP, he watched the firm ignore flashing warning signs before its collapse. His analysis led him to identify twenty-one indicators for gauging the health of an economy and detecting early signals of opportunity and danger. In How to Listen When Markets Speak, McDonald unveils his unique predictive models, connecting surprising dots between past, present, and future and outlining actionable trading ideas for staying a beat ahead of the markets. Readers will learn: - How disastrous Fed policy will collide with an increasingly fragmented geopolitical landscape to keep U.S. inflation near 3-5% for the next decade - How growing demand for oil and gas, underinvestment in urgently needed energy infrastructure, and cozy Russia-Saudi Arabia relations will lift the base price of energy to historic levels - Why hard assets and rare minerals like lithium and cobalt will outperform growth stocks, U.S. treasuries, and overcrowded passive investment strategies--and how to detect bearish and bullish trends in advance - How passive investing and the vehicles intended to democratize finance have fueled bubbles and ideological skew by large market participants, leaving millions of 401(k)s and IRAs at risk - Why America will likely lose its position as a global superpower and holder of the world's premier reserve currency, and may be forced to slash Social Security, Medicare, and military spending Rather than merely doomsaying, How to Listen When Markets Speak equips readers to make sense of our current moment, resist reactionary narratives and baseless analysis, and preserve their wealth in turbulent times. When markets speak, it pays to listen.

Impact of Capital Structure on the Income Performance of Publicly Rated Traded Deposit Money Banks
The book titled ""Impact of Capital Structure on the Income Performance of Publicly Rated Traded Deposit Money Banks" explores how capital structure decisions influence the financial outcomes of deposit money banks listed on the Nigerian Exchange Group. Covering a 20-year period (2003-2022), the book examines significant economic developments, regulatory reforms, and global financial shifts that shaped the banking industry in Nigeria. The book places a lot of emphasis on capital structure choices, or the proportion of debt and equity financing, and how it helps banks reach their financial objectives. It draws attention to the ways that strategic capital structure choices impacted income performance at times like the COVID-19 epidemic, the global financial crisis of 2008, and the banking consolidation of 2004-2005. Using trustworthy historical financial data from publicly listed banks' annual reports, the study examined long-term patterns. Examining the effects of the debt-to-equity ratio, leverage ratio, equity ratio, interest cover ratio, and debt ratio on return on assets was one of the goals. In addition to descriptive statistics, trend and SWOT analyses, the study employed an ex post facto design and panel least squares regression for statistical analysis. The results showed that while the debt ratio and interest cover ratio had a negative influence on return on assets, the equity ratio, debt-to-equity ratio, and leverage ratio had a favorable impact. To maximize shareholder value, reduce borrowing costs, and boost profitability, the book advises bank managers and financial advisers to strike a balance between debt and equity. For banking professionals, analysts, policymakers, and academics who want to comprehend how capital structure and revenue performance relate to each other in Nigeria's ever-changing economic landscape, this book is an invaluable resource.

Good as Gold
Includes a new preface by the author. From financial crises, to pandemic price-spikes, to recurring cycles of inflation, everyone agrees: the economy has seen better days. But as soon as pundits and politicians start discussing economics, things get murky. Most books ask more questions than they answer. Most books...but not this one. Judy Shelton--Senior Fellow at Independent Institute, former Chairman of the National Endowment for Democracy, and critically acclaimed monetary economist--has written a book with answers. And not a moment too soon. With clarity and moral courage, Shelton charts the course to a brighter future. She's one of the few economists bold enough to challenge the inflationary policies of the Federal Reserve, emphasizing how today's policies enrich elites at the expense of--you guessed it--poor and middle-class Americans. This, Shelton insists, must end. And it can end--easily. But Shelton doesn't stop there. Her vision is for not only America but also for people around the world. Global, economic upliftment, she insists, need not come at the expense of domestic prosperity. We can have both--but not without a sound and stable U.S. currency. And history is very clear on this point. When the U.S. dollar is backed by gold, America prospers, and so does the rest of the world. In this book, Shelton casts a powerful vision that is as revolutionary as it is time-tested...a vision that shows how the future American dollar can perform as good as gold... ...or even better. But this is no curmudgeonly demand to return to the gold standard of yore. Neither is it a demand to return to the Bretton Woods era. Instead, Shelton offers something new: an explanation of how we can use gold for a new international monetary order. Step by step, she lays out how gold can provide a universal measure of value across borders, create new financial opportunities, and dramatically increase prosperity around the world. If you care about the poor, rich, and everyone in between, you have to read this book ... and discover: - how price stability functions as the foundation for productive economic growth; - how political freedom and economic freedom are fundamentally linked ... and how one cannot exist without the other; - how to reconcile the stability of America's domestic currency in a global context; - the proper role of government in the economy; - and much, much more ... Writing with a sober but hopeful voice, Shelton is no ordinary economist. With grace, intellectual rigor, and unmatched passion, this book is a must-read for anyone invested in the future of the American--and global--economy. You'll walk away with more answers than questions--a rare experience for anyone who reads about monetary policy.

A New Banking System
A new banking system presents a critical examination of centralized financial control and proposes a decentralized model rooted in tangible productivity. It challenges the restrictive nature of monopolized banking institutions and explores how economic liberation can be achieved through widespread access to credit. The book underscores the relationship between real assets and currency, shifting the foundation of financial trust from precious metals to practical infrastructure like mortgages and transportation networks. This perspective reframes value not as a static commodity but as something derived from active economic contribution. The author questions the fairness of a system that restricts monetary expansion to elite institutions while advocating for mechanisms that distribute financial power more broadly. By linking capital to widespread, usable assets, the work envisions a stable currency system that promotes individual opportunity and curbs speculative volatility. The text stresses the importance of aligning monetary policy with productivity, and it envisions a future where currency reflects societal utility rather than arbitrary scarcity. In essence, the work argues for an economic structure where credit serves as a tool for empowerment rather than control.

But in the real world people don't make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money and teaches you how to make better sense of one of life's most important topics.
