Babson Analyzes Stock Trend Over 100 Years From Civil War to Space Era
Babson Park Massachusetts analyst Roger W Babson examines stock market cycles from inflation linked booms after the Civil War through crashes and recoveries up to World War II and beyond. He links events like the Lincoln assassination the 1871 Chicago Fire the 1893 Cordage failure and the 1929 crash to market volatility and inflation driven cycles. He also ties personal influences Joan of Arc Isaac Newton Isabel Babson and Cecil Rhodes to his economic outlook and foresees inflation reappearing to fund the cold war and possibly a space era shift.
