Praise for Investing in the Age of Sovereign Defaults

"Peter T. Treadway presents a comprehensive, but disturbing reality: rich nations are not immune to fiscal disaster. In fact, they are vulnerable and past Black Swans may easily repeat in a future built on fiat money and excessive spending. For investors, the prospects of deflation, inflation, and worthless paper money raise troubling questions. But in the likely future of default by so-called rich nations, Treadway lays out strategies to preserve assets and survive the worst of an otherwise bleak financial trend. This is a must-read for any thoughtful investor."
—MICHAEL C. THOMSETT, author, educator, and financial expert

"Dr. Treadway's series of Dismal Optimist commentaries have been a mainstay for global financial professionals and high-level decision makers for years. One of the chief reasons for its popularity is his observations on financial affairs and global markets have largely been proven correct, despite the fact his views tend to be outside the mainstream. The publication of Investing in the Age of Sovereign Defaults gives everyone the opportunity to benefit from his insight supported by his financial expertise and his exceptional knowledge of history. This book is a great read and will become a valuable tool for investors, decision makers, and financial professionals. I urgently recommend it to all."
—ROBERT HARDY, Principal, The Geostrat (www.thegeostrat.com)

"While there is no lack of individual intelligence among global policymakers, economists, and market observers on the public stage, the continuing malaise in the global economy does seem to be confounding popular understanding. In Investing in the Age of Sovereign Defaults, Peter Treadway brings decades of practical economic and financial wisdom to the current conundrum.

Treadway asks and answers the tough questions directly and with sound logic. His historical economic perspectives, worldview, and hands-on strategic market experience make this book a must-read for anyone looking to better understand economies and reflexive government policies. The book will open many eyes."
