Barton Biggs was a rare breed of investment strategist. His career spanned over five decades, and his advice to investors large and small earned him a reputation as one of the most forward-thinking money managers of his era. Now, by popular request, Biggs on Finance, Economics, and the Stock Market brings together the best writing this legendary figure produced during his long tenure as Morgan Stanley's Global Market Strategist. Between 1973 and 2003, Barton Biggs was a senior partner at financial giant Morgan Stanley. His weekly briefs to clients, made available to the general public for the first time in this book, were compilations of his investment research. They took the form of witty, intelligent, and often deeply philosophical letters. When it came to predicting the movements of markets, Biggs was often way ahead of the curve. He was famously "maximum bullish" on China as early as 1993. He foresaw the end of inflation in the 1980s and the collapse of the dot-com boom in the late 1990s. But Biggs had more than just keen market awareness. He had a unique brand of financial wisdom that makes his writings indispensible, even today.

This book is a historical document, but it's also a compendium of the insights of one of the world's leading strategists. These insights are organized by topic for easy access. Mastering market history, economic policy, and globalization took Biggs a lifetime, and his clients were better off as a result. Thanks to this book, now anyone can learn from the master and put Biggs' enduring strategies into practice. During the time he was partner there, Barton Biggs was one of Morgan Stanley's brightest stars. Biggs always encouraged taking the long view on markets. That's what made his forecasts so widely sought-after, and that's what makes this book so essential for today's investor.
