Why read it?
1 author picked The Courage to Act as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I deeply appreciate this book because it offers a firsthand account of the 2008 financial crisis from someone who was at the heart of it. Understanding the actions of central banks is fundamental for Forex trading, and Bernanke’s insights provide a clear view of how monetary policy decisions shape currency movements.
What makes this book invaluable is how Bernanke explains the rationale behind key interventions, including interest rate cuts and quantitative easing, and their impact on the global economy. His perspective helped me refine my approach to analyzing central bank policies and their influence on Forex markets.
From David's list on master currency market analysis.
