‘Tips on how to keep your portfolio performing even when the market isn't. ‘ (TNT Magazine, August 2010).

From the Inside Flap

In the wake of declining stock prices, the bursting of the real estate bubble, and a weakening dollar, the American economy is poised for a prolonged contraction and U.S. stocks will suffer a protracted bear market, so predicted seasoned Wall Street prognosticator Peter Schiff in his 2008 bestseller, The Little Book of Bull Moves in Bear Markets. Now updated for 2010, in The Little Book of Bull Moves, the CNBC-dubbed "Doctor Doom" explains in the same straightforward and accessible style that was the signature of his first book:

• The causes of the current financial crisis, including how the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers triggered the market meltdown

• How healthcare legislation will likely prove to be the stake through the heart of our already fragile economy

• How the dollar's downward trend is likely to continue, especially under the Obama administration's economic policies, which only provide a temporary illusion of recovery

• How the real collapse—including a cataclysmic upheaval of the American way of life as we know it—is yet to come

Filled with the sort of insightful commentary, inventive metaphors, and prescriptive advice readers have come to expect from Schiff, The Little Book of Bull Moves shows you commonsense ways to successfully implement various bull moves so that you can preserve, and even grow your wealth in an economy experiencing high inflation, collapsed markets, and rising interest rates coupled with declining currencies.

For investors who understand that the worst is yet to come, but don't know what to do about it, and for those for whom a new economic and financial anxiety has taken hold, The Little Book of Bull Moves offers timely insights into using a conservative, nontraditional investment strategy to protect your portfolio and even profit during these uncertain economic times and those to come.

Brief and not much new if you've read his previous books. There are the updates for 2010, confirming he predicted most things. I liked the 50,000 foot view of investment alternatives. The more radical statements near the end were surprising for somebody that had political hopes, but they give you a good feel for how serious he views our economic problems.

I bought the Audible version of this book and have been very impressed.
Schiff gives us all details how the Fed's plays games with manipulating facts and saying all is fine when we are teetering along side a steep cliff.
This book is truly a eye opener and gives great historical facts of past events and how we're doing the same crap all over again.
Sciff also gives great advice for the stock market.
a must read

Gold is not the only investment recommended in this book, but even if it were, gold went up 100+ percent between 2009 and 2011! How is that not better than Treasuries? For one, you've gotta be real dumb to insinuate that Europac Metals is the only source to buy gold from, and two, if you're worried that there is too much gold, then get silver - ~500 mil. oz. available today as opposed to 3.5 bln oz. available 5 years ago.
