How will Coronavirus impact the economy? Wondering where to put your money during the COVID-19 pandemic? Learn this answers during this interview between Kathy Fettke and Harry Dent.
It’s not the time for panic. It’s time to look at the coronavirus pandemic with a clear head to figure out what we should do. It’s a bad situation, but we can get through it. With the right knowledge and precautions, we can protect ourselves and our finances.
Today’s guest is economist Harry Dent. He will give us a detailed look at the good, the bad, and the ugly -- not necessarily in that order. Harry talks about where we are now with the COVID-19 pandemic, what’s happening in different countries, what happened during past pandemics, what’s likely to happen with this one, the risk to our health, the risk to our finances, and some ideas on where we might want to put our money. He's been predicting a financial reckoning for some time now and is often described as the voice of doom and gloom, but he doesn’t sugar coat the truth and that’s what we need right now. This pandemic is a big wake-up call.
Harry is the co-founder of Dent Research. He’s appeared on “Good Morning America,” PBS, CNBC, CNN, and Fox News. He’s been featured in Barron’s, Investor’s Business Daily, Fortune, Success, U.S. News and World Report, Business Week, The Wall Street Journal, and many other publications. He’s written several best-selling books including: The Great Boom Ahead in 1992, The Demographic Cliff in 2015, The Sale of a Lifetime in 2016, Zero Hour in 2017, and Spending Waves in 2019. And he shares much of his research and insights in the blog: Boom & Bust.
