Interest rates are at all-time lows; the sanctity of cash deposits is under threat; government bonds are expensive and offer ultra-low or negative yields; equity markets are largely detached from reality after years of loose monetary policy. Investors need to calibrate themselves to the realities of this extraordinary new environment so that they can protect their wealth and, ideally, prosper.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e In \u003cem\u003eInvesting Through the Looking Glass\u003c\/em\u003e, longstanding portfolio manager and investment columnist Tim Price identifies and shatters a number of investment myths and misconceptions. He questions whether stock markets inevitably rise over the longer term, whether bonds continue to be relevant as a failsafe low-risk asset, whether professional fund managers represent \"smart money\", and much more besides.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e But this is not just a counsel of despair. Having identified the problems besetting today's investor, the focus then moves on to practical guidance to help investors preserve and grow their capital in this age of inflationary and deflationary uncertainty. Tim Price provides ideas on how to find attractive investments in distorted equity markets, on what might be the best-kept secret in finance, and how best to insure portfolios in an environment of heightened systemic risk.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003eInvesting Through the Looking Glass\u003c\/em\u003e presents a route map for navigating one of the most challenging financial environments that anyone has ever seen.
