    <![CDATA[According to Michael Panzner, the US is less than two years away from &quot;&quot;financial Armageddon.&quot;&quot;  When the stock market bubble burst in March 2000, the collapse that followed wiped out over two-thirds of the value of the technology-laden Nasdaq Index and decimated the hopes and dreams of millions of Americans.  <p> <p>Now, imagine not one, but four such disasters looming on the horizon.  Four key elements--Debt, Derivatives, Government Guarantees, and the Retirement system--are quickly unraveling, and because they are so intricately connected, there will be an unremitting domino effect.  With time running out, this is a disaster-in-the-making on which every American must be informed so they can protect themselves, their families, and their economic well-being before it's too late.<p></p></p></p>]]>

    <![CDATA[In When Giants Fall, Panzner makes his case for the turbulent economic changes that will be occurring over the next few years and examines the resulting economic opportunities.<br/>    <br/>    According to Panzner, the economic changes will be widespread. Businesses will struggle amid wars, shortages, logistical disruptions, and a breakdown of the established monetary order. Individuals will be forced to rethink livelihoods, lifestyles, living arrangements, and locales. Political structures will be in flux, as local leaders gain influence at the expense of national authorities. For many people, it will be nothing short of a modern Dark Ages, where each day brings fresh anxieties, unfamiliar risks, and a sense of foreboding.<br/>    <br/>    However, for those enlightened few who understand what is really going on and what happens next, the chaotic years ahead represent the opportunity of a lifetime - a time when they can realize goals they never thought possible and achieve a level of wealth, security, and inner peace that will leave them head-and-shoulders above everyone else. In this book, Panzner offers cutting-edge insights and strategies that will enable readers to stay well ahead of the game during the uniquely unsettling period ahead.]]>

    <![CDATA[In recent years, the stock market has undergone revolutionary change at virtually every level: new players, new technologies, new information flows, and new macroeconomic conditions. These changes are radically impacting investors, whether they know it or not.  <p>Now, you can profit from the changes--instead of being victimized by them. Wall Street insider Michael J. Panzner will show you how. Panzner reveals how falling transaction costs and a barrage of data are transforming traditional investment patterns, and how stocks are increasingly being bought and sold like commodities. Discover the impact that electronic trading, instant messaging, and hedge funds are having on intraday volatility and short-term direction. Learn how an era of &quot;boom and bust&quot; have altered investor behavior and risk preferences, why today's market is increasingly emotional, and why many traditional indicators simply don't work anymore.  <p>From the growing role of derivatives to the increasing unpredictability of seasonal and cyclical patterns, this book takes you &quot;under the hood&quot; of today's equity markets... so you can develop a winning investment strategy for today's new realities.</p></p>]]>
