He discusses why pessimistic economists miss technological innovations, which profoundly affect society. economies, and markets.
Yardeni explains why as an entrepreneurial capitalistic he is not a preacher, or moral analyst; instead, he focuses on the duality of whether events are bullish or bearish.The boom bust cycle and Recessions are inevitable. He notes that another financial crisis is likely to occur in our lifetimes; it will also present another opportunity to buy equities at a solid discount.
