Event Details

Prof. Aliber, once again, uncensored and unplugged last March at our 2018 Economic Forecast, predicted the decline in stock and bond markets, as interest rates and trade and fiscal deficits escalated. Since then, global financial markets have cratered. The NYSE Composite never recovered to its January high as Prof. Aliber suspected. One by one, all of the U.S. stock market indices have tested their 2018 market lows. Even Apple and Amazon have finally capitulated to negative investor sentiment in the fourth quarter as a bear market appears imminent. What's next?

Back by popular demand, Prof. Aliber once again comes out of retirement to share his bold assessment of the economic cycle. His fearless market calls have become legendary among Dallas-Ft. Worth alumni. Is the worst still yet to come in stock and bond markets? Will U.S. trade policy finally reduce trade deficits? Has China's stock market decline begun to unravel its real estate and credit bubble? Will oil and other commodities continue to be dead money? Ask Prof. Aliber about his current views on the future of stocks, bonds, oil, gold or your personal finance decisions.
