346: Harry Dent on How Investors Can Capitalize on Political and Financial Upheaval


Listen Later

In my early twenties, my brother handed me a copy of one of Harry Dent’s books, and I was an instant fan. In The Great Boom Ahead, he stood virtually alone in forecasting the economic growth of the 1990s, and in The Demographic Cliff, he foreshadowed the deflation that was about to hit. 

Fast forward to today, and I couldn’t be more excited to talk to Harry about his new book, Zero Hour: Turn the Greatest Political and Financial Upheaval in Modern History to Your Advantage. His latest work outlines why we’re on the verge of massive social, economic, and political upheaval and the steps everyone can take to protect themselves.

In our conversation today, we dig into his powerful methodology for accurately predicting boom and bust cycles, how living off of stimulus simply fuels inflation and delays the inevitable, and why high-end residential and commercial real estate are likely to get hit hardest. He also shares some great tips and how to prepare your portfolio for the coming crash and the potentially incredible buying opportunities on the other side. 

Key Takeaways with Harry Dent

  • Why Harry thinks that our current bubble has peaked for stocks–and why he’s expecting to see certain stocks drop by as much as 86%.
  • Why certain real estate markets will likely drop by at least 25-30% in the years to come.
  • The advantages of owning apartments and investing for cash flow–and why now’s the time to sell your assets that don’t cash flow.
  • How the Fed’s decisions during the Great Recession and the COVID crisis propped up an economy that should’ve stayed sideways.
  • Why 2025 could be our next big economic boom.
