Zijn werk duikt in de Amerikaanse geschiedenis, gekenmerkt door een diepgaande verkenning van het verleden en de impact ervan op het heden. Hij streeft ernaar lezers onder te dompelen in verhalen en verborgen verbanden tussen gebeurtenissen te ontdekken. Zijn benadering is analytisch maar boeiend, en biedt lezers inzicht in de complexiteit van historische processen.

In a follow-up to his bestseller The Great Reckoning, in this new book, economic expert Davidson says we are on the cusp of great change — a breaking point — that will have vast implications for investors and wealth managers.

This provocative and wide-ranging book will explain this paradox and provide a roadmap investors can use to prosper despite the coming upheavals.
