Greenspan´s bubbles: the age of ingnorance at the federal reserve

This is the book that bursts easy Al's bubble - revealing the real story behind Alan Greenspan. "The New York Times" nicknamed him "Mr. Bubble" for his role in creating the two largest bubbles in recent years: in the stock market andthe housing market. Now, MSN Money columnist Bill Fleckenstein reveals the unvarnished truth behind Greenspan's "Age of Recklessness." By slashing interestrates to bail out investors, Greenspan made a lot of people rich but his actions resulted in the dot-com disaster of 2000 and the mortgage mess of 2007. But Greenspan's recklessness goes back even further-to the crash of 1987, the Savings and Loan crisis, the implosion of Long Term Capital Management, and eventhe Asian crisis. This no-holds-barred account finally exposes Greenspan as the worst Fed Chairman ever-and offers an economic wake-up call for citizens and investors.
