In their book Manias, Panics and Crashes, Kindleberger and Aliber describe a typical financial bubble that usually begins with some kind of displacement and which is eventually followed by an economic crisis. Describe this paradigm and then assess and analyze whether it applies to one of the following three boom and bust scenarios: 1929, Japan 1980s or Iceland 2000-2009. Be sure to explain the details of the various forces generating the bubble and the subsequent crash. Then evaluate how much benefit would have been gained if an investor had gone into cash six months before the crash and reentered and fully invested six months after the crash and then held a stock indexed based portfolio for 10 years.
