{"product_id":"book-eg1z","title":"The Age of Deleveraging","description":" While many investors fear a rapid rise in inflation, Gary Shilling  argues they should be really preparing for the opposite: an  extended period of falling prices.  A top economist with a  superb forecasting record, Shilling asserts that slow global  growth; increased consumer spending; and efficiencies created by  technology will lead to falling prices throughout the economy in  the years ahead.  As a result, many investments will suffer,  including real estate, commodities, and most stocks.  In  The Deflation Beating Portfolio, Shilling says that  investors should invest in Treasury bonds, utilities, consumer  staples, and some dividend paying stocks.  And investors  should avoid commodity, automotive, and consumer durable stocks;  precious metals; and real estate.    The book will provide an overview of the U.S. economy since the  1960s  juxtaposed against Shillings forecasts   demonstrating that Shilling has been generally right about major  economic trends since he began forecasting in the early  1980s.  Shilling then will lay out a convincing case why  investors need to be prepared for deflation  not inflation   in the years ahead.
