The Shadow Market

Más información sobre el libro

Eric J. Weiner's critically acclaimed first book was recognized as one of the year's best by Barron's and Kiplinger's. In his latest work, Weiner uncovers a significant reshuffling of global fiscal power that Americans cannot control. Many remain unaware of the vast multitrillion-dollar network of secretive and largely unregulated investment vehicles—such as foreign sovereign wealth funds, private equity funds, and hedge funds—that are quietly acquiring assets worldwide. This book reveals the hidden dynamics of high finance, which operates without a physical headquarters like Wall Street or an index to track its movements. Weiner explores the evolution of this international market, where money intertwines with geopolitical power, sometimes subtly and other times overtly. The narrative is both informative and startling, serving as an urgent warning to the global community. It is essential reading for anyone interested in the future of the global economy, America's role in it, and investment strategies.
