Babson Analyzes Churchill Defeat On Stock Prices
Babson Park Massachusetts outlines how news of Churchill's defeat initially unsettled markets but later led to buying as investors priced in inflation and long run effects. He cites rising prices and wages, shifting assets to American stocks, and recommends diversification among Merchandizing, Insurance, and Real Estate sectors. He notes vast increases in loose change and bank deposits, with interest rates historic lows. He advises young people to own small fertile land and gain expertise in a profession as Europe follows socialist shifts.
