Praise for World Event Trading
 
"In the ever-converging global economy, everything impacts the capital markets. Andy has a rare skill: translating in crisp, clear, and vivid language how global and geopolitical events impact the financial markets and create profit-making opportunities. Like Andy's daily newsletter, this book is a must-read for everyone who wants to understand the global markets and how the news of the day influences, drives, and determines those markets."
-Rob Nichols, President and COO, Financial Services Forum, and former Assistant Secretary of the United States Treasury for Public Affairs
 
"As a currency portfolio manager and trader, I have been a reader of Mr. Busch's daily reports for over five years. Andy is unique in his ability to link disparate themes from around the world into a coherent strategy for making money in the financial markets. As someone who has managed billions of U.S. dollars in the currency markets for over thirty years, I can say that his book is essential for understanding how financial markets react to today's world events."
-Eric Nelson, Senior Portfolio Manager, FX Concepts
 
"Seizing the trading opportunity around current events was once the sole province of the professional: no more. Andy shines a light on some of the techniques that have turned ordinary traders into incredibly successful (and rich) ones. With wit and clarity, he connects the dots in a way that few can-and shows how just about anyone can profit from even the worst of news."
-Amanda Lang, Anchor, BNN's SqueezePlay
 
"Wall Street analysts can predict corporate earnings or the unemployment rate, but geopolitical events are the great wild card. They can have an enormous impact on many markets, not just on stocks. As a result, savvy analysts like Andy Busch are increasingly important in the financial world. His commentary is invaluable because it makes all of us smarter investors."
-Greg Valliere, Chief Political Strategist, Stanford Washington Research Group
 
"There are many factors that affect financial markets. Most economists and strategists analyze these factors from a macroeconomic perspective. This book takes an entirely different approach by showing how headlines can make a significant impact on financial markets. I strongly recommend this book to every serious trader."
-George A-Ting Chou, Deputy Governor, Central Bank of the Republic of China (Taiwan)

Von der hinteren Coverseite

In an age of twenty-four-hour news coverage and cutting-edge technology, world events dominate our lives and impact the financial markets. From hurricanes to the war in Iraq, we exist in a crazy, connect-the-dots planet. However, the well-prepared investor can turn these events into profits. All they need is the ability to recognize the consistent characteristics of these events and the vision to build a strategy or portfolio that can take advantage of these situations when they begin to unfold.
 
As a foreign exchange strategist with over twenty years of financial experience, author Andrew Busch knows what it takes to make it in today's dynamic market. And now, with World Event Trading, he wants to show you how.
 
Filled with in-depth insights and expert advice, this practical guide examines three categories of world events-infectious diseases, natural disasters, and politics-and provides hands-on strategies for trading profitably on each. Using actual examples of the war in Iraq, Hurricane Katrina, and other recent "page one stories," Busch shows you how to understand all-important market moods and anticipate profitable trades. He also reveals little-known details on legendary event-driven trading successes, illustrating how any trader can repeat them in different market environments.
 
While making money in today's market isn't easy, the approach outlined within these pages will give you a distinct edge when it comes to trading world events as they occur. Essential issues discussed include:
*
 
How types of diseases have changed over the years-from the Spanish Flu to Mad Cow-and why their influence on society and financial markets remains the same
*
 
The effect of environmental disruptions-from earthquakes and tsunamis to global warming-on industries and economies
*
 
The opportunities that government change and scandal offer the informed trader
*
 
And much more
 
Infectious diseases, natural disasters, war, and other events have all made their presence felt in ways that have shocked financial markets. Due to vastly improved means of communication, the impact of these events has been concentrated into an even shorter time frame and created more pronounced price movement across global markets. With World Event Trading as your guide, you'll quickly become familiar with how world events develop and learn how to capitalize on these situations-and generate outsized profits-when they do occur.
