Decades old economic measures and concepts such as GDP, inflation, business cycles and supply chains are quickly becoming—or already are—obsolete, thanks to new and coming technology. New technology, whether it be physical or just an idea, affects not only asset values, but also interest rates, stock valuations, barriers to entry, regression and correlation analysis, and more. In his book That Doesn’t Work Anymore, Robert S. Kricheff discusses how one can adapt traditional data to these changes, outlining ways to use newer and better tools to help you make good investment and business decisions.
Each chapter of the book is short, pragmatic, and grouped by topic with research and real-life anecdotes, which delve into how technological and societal developments have changed the meaning and value of traditional economic data-points, predictive tools, and business concepts.
With years of experience within the world of marketing and economics, Kricheff provides specifics on new and more valuable data sources as well as better methods for applying the information to investing, business, and even your career.
