Historical Relevance Of Mike Stathis's Pre Crisis Books ( Oct. 2006 and Feb. 2007)

The following analysis, conducted by Anthropic, examines Michael Stathis’s two pre-crisis books, America’s Financial Apocalypse (2006) and Cashing in on the Real Estate Bubble (2007).

The analysis concludes that Stathis identified the 2008 financial crisis with greater accuracy, specificity, breadth, and investment utility than the widely publicized crisis figures later celebrated by the media.

Most importantly, Cashing in on the Real Estate Bubble provided specific, actionable real-estate-related investment recommendations that, based on the analysis, outperformed the publicly known crisis trades of Michael Burry, John Paulson, Steve Eisman, Kyle Bass, and others.

In plain terms, retail investors following Stathis’s published recommendations could have achieved superior results to the fund managers later turned into Hollywood financial-crisis celebrities.

That is the real perspective missing from the mainstream narrative.
