The Intelligent Forex Investor

Book excerpt: In The Intelligent Forex Investor: World Currency and World Commodities, Graham offers a more global analysis of the systems that could reduce dangerous cycles of price instability in order to achieve stability in a postwar economy. Graham, in an astonishing display of foresight, shows how commodity reserves should play an important part in any economic policy.Throughout the book, Graham maintains that stabilization of commodities offers a comparatively simple technique by which the world could achieve the fourfold objective of foreign-exchange stability, reasonable price stability, protective stockpiles, and - most importantly - a balanced expansion of the world's output and consumption of useful goods.
