Has the era of money-printing led to the biggest asset bubble in modern times? Have Western economies over-extended themselves? And is the world heading for å giant recession? David Murrin believes so, and explaines why in this lecture hosted by CFA Society Norway on behalf of the Nordic CFA societies.
David has been described as a polymath who started his career as a geophysicist, and who then entered finance at JP Morgan where he worked for seven years. Since then for more than two and a half decades he has been running his own hedge fund. During his financial career, his main focus has been on finding and understanding collective human behavioral patterns that comprise the study of human systems behavior, including deep-seated ‘patterns’ in history, using them to predict the future for geopolitics and markets in today’s turbulent times. He has a remarkable track record. David has written four books. Breaking the Code of History recognizes that post 9/11, the world changed in an instant. Using his theories of human social structures he was able to successfully predict back in 2007 the key process in human social structures that have impacted today’s changing world, including the decline of America and the West and the rise of China, and the reality of climate change.
