Investing in US Financial History

Investors who neglect to study the past are forced to rely primarily on their life experience to make decisions. This often causes them to overlook powerful, cyclical forces that repeatedly reshape economies and markets. In Investing in U.S. Financial History: Understanding the Past to Forecast the Future, Mark Higgins (Darden ’05) helps investors fill this knowledge gap by recounting the full financial history of the United States.

Join fellow alumni and current students for an evening of networking and hear from Mark as he discusses several lost lessons of history that are particularly relevant today.

Topics include:

• Post-pandemic inflations
• Monetary policy during periods of extreme price instability
• Potential consequences of unsustainable federal deficit spending
