"Harry S. Dent, Jr. is the Founder and President of the H. S. Foundation whose mission is "Helping People Understand Change". Mr. Dent is a well-known author and is the Chief Economist of High Street Financial, an investment management firm headquartered in Tampa, FL. In his book The Great Boom Ahead, published in 1992, Mr. Dent stood virtually alone in accurately forecasting the unanticipated "Boom" of the 1990s. Today he continues to educate audiences about his predictions for the next and possibly last great bull market, from late 2005 into early to mid 2010. Since 1992 he has authored two consecutive best sellers The Roaring 2000s and The Roaring 2000s Investor. In his latest book, The Next Great Bubble Boom, Dent offers a comprehensive forecast for the next two decades and explains how fundamental trends suggest that we will see strong growth ahead. Mr. Dent also publishes the H. S. Dent Forecast newsletter, which offers current analysis of economic, and financial market trends. Mr. Dent received his MBA from Harvard Business School, where he was a Baker Scholar and was elected to the Century Club for leadership excellence. Since 1988 he has been speaking to executives, financial advisors and investors around the world. He has appeared on "Good Morning America", PBS, CNBC, CNN/FN, and has been featured in Barron's, Investor's Business Daily, Entrepreneur, Fortune, Business Week, The Wall Street Journal, and American Demographics. While at Bain & Company he worked as a consultant with several Fortune 100 companies. He has been CEO of several entrepreneurial growth companies and an investor in new ventures. As Chief Economist of High Street Financial, Mr. Dent educates clients and partners and also serves on the investment committee where he provides the strategic vision for asset allocation and investment selection."

Product Description
In my recent book, The Next Great Bubble Boom, I explain the crash of 2000 - 2002 as a natural part of an 80-year demographic-driven technology cycle with one more technology lead bubble ahead from late 2005 into 2010. This piece updates that book and shows investors how this boom since 1975 has seen a series of bubbles in different sectors. I look at the present oil and housing bubbles and why those are about to peak and interest rates are about to bottom. The next bubble will see the stock market roaring again. But that will be the last major bubble in this bubble boom that will finally end around 2010.

2.0 out of 5 stars Same old story from the bubble man, November 5, 2005
By B. Lovian "blovian" (United States) - See all my reviews
He called for the 2000s to "roar" just before the tech bubble burst and the 2000s sputtered. He predicted at the beginning of 2005 that the Dow would hit 14,000 by year end. Hmm...maybe his theories are just wrong.

Why would a careful investor want to risk his money in a bubble of a market anyway? Even Dent acknowledges the "bubble boom" will end badly. The coming crash will catch most investors by surprise. It won't come on Dent's schedule, anymore than the 2000-2002 crash did (he didn't see it coming). His predictions of what will happen year by year into the future are ridiculous considering his totally off the mark predictions for 2005. No one can see the future. But a lot of investment gurus are arrogant (or dishonest) enough to try to convince us they have special abilities to see what the rest of us can't. Dent even throws in some "Elliott waves", a form of numerology that has proven to be irrelevant at best as a forecasting tool and has caused most people who swear by it to underperform the market (wave theory guru Bob Prechter has been trying to short the market for over a decade, convinced by his "wave count" that the Dow will go to 400...obviously Dent has a different "wave count" -- one that points to 40,000.)

My advice is to not put everything in stocks and to have at least 15% of your investment assets in gold and commodities. This has been the "bubble boom" so far in the "roaring 2000s" -- even though H.S. Dent has not recommended commodities.
