Acclaimed financial journalist Eric J. Weiner reveals how foreign countries and private investors are increasingly controlling the global economy and secretly wresting power from the United State in ways that our government cannot reverse and about which the average American knows nothing.The most potent force in global commerce today is not the Federal Reserve, multinational banks, or the governments of the G7 countries. Rather, it is the multitrilliondollar network of superrich, secretive, and largely unregulated investment vehiclesforeign sovereign wealth funds, governmentrun corporations, private equity funds, and hedge fundsthat are quietly buying up the world, piece by valuable piece.As Weiner's groundbreaking account shows, the shadow market doesn't have a physical headquarters such as Wall Street. It doesn't have a formal leadership or an index to track or a single zone of exchange. Rather, it comprises an invisible and evershifting global nexus where money mixes with geopolitical power, often with great speed and secrecy. Led by cashflush nations such as China, Kuwait, Abu Dhabi, Singapore, Saudi Arabia, and even Norway, the shadow market is hiring the brightest international financial talent money can buy and is now assembling the gigantic investment portfolios that will form the power structure of tomorrow's economy.Taking advantage of the Great Recession and subsequent liquidity problems in the United States and Europe, the major players of the shadow market are deploying staggering amounts of cash, controlling the capital markets, and securing not only major stakes in multinational companies but huge tracts of farmland and natural resources across the world. Yet that's not all; they're also pursuing political agendas made possible by their massive wealth and are becoming increasingly aggressive with the United States and other governments.Highly informative and genuinely startling, Eric J. Weiner's uptodate account gets out in front of daily events, with proof of his argument destined to appear in the news for years to come. The Shadow Market moves the conversation from "international competition" to "global financial warfare," and stands as an urgent mustread for anyone interested in the future of the global economy, America's position in the world, or how and where to invest money today.
