Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "Trendbook" series is the comprehensive, one-stop source for the most timely and accurate trends and forecasts on hundreds of economic, business, and social issues. The "2024 World Trendbook" features 5-year trends (2018-2022), forecasts (2023-2025), and projections (2030) on the most important statistics that describe the world economy and society. The publication also includes 2023-2025 forecasts on the economic growth or decline (GDP changes) for all 218 world countries. The book features statistics, charts, and extensive written analysis of current trends on economic and societal topics, as well as forecast analyses for the 2024 global economy and societal outlooks. "Trendbook" readers can use the trend statistics and forecast analysis in a variety of ways: Investors: Financial planners and market investors constantly seek growth opportunities in emerging countries and high-performance sectors. The global forecasts on GDP, inflation, unemployment rates, and 18 sectors will assist investors in their financial plans for 2024. Budgeters and Sales Executives: Accountants and sales managers need accurate forecast data to complete their budgets and sales targets for the coming year. Knowing the economic performance of countries where they sell products and services is essential at the beginning of the year. Here is a short list of the most important statistics and topics discussed in the "Trendbook" (among the hundreds featured): Forecast Trends on Economic Indicators: Gross Domestic Products Inflation GDP Per Capita Imports/Exports Forecast Trends on Private Sector Indicators: Fuel Imports/Exports Food Imports/Exports Ease of Doing Business Tourism Receipts and Expenditures Forecast Trends on Public Sector Indicators: Armed Forces Personnel Government Debts Government Expenses Tax Revenues Forecast Trends on Poverty and Labor Issues: Income Share Held by Lowest 10% Income Share Held by Highest 10% Unemployment Rate Labor Force Participation Self-Employed Forecast Trends on Poverty and Labor Issues: Income Share Held by Lowest 10% Income Share Held by Highest 10% Unemployment Rate Labor Force Participation Self-Employed Forecast Trends on Health Issues: Adolescent Fertility Rate Life Expectancy Population Growth Rate Out-of-Pocket Healthcare Expenditures Suicide Mortality Rate Forecast Trends on Sectors Sales: Retail and Wholesale Utilities and Construction Professional and Administrative Services Information and Financial Arts/Entertainment and Food/Accommodation The unique methodology for the "Trendbook" forecasts includes both longitudinal (historical) and latitudinal (vertical) analysis. The forecasts are based on historical data from various governmental organizations such as the World Bank, U.S. Census, and EuroStat but additionally include vertical analysis as changes in GDP, inflation, and imports/exports in one country impact those changes in other countries. For example, if the manufacturing of imported goods to the United States from China moves to other countries, such as Vietnam, how does that impact GDP changes in these countries? Barnes Reports, established in 1998, is a leading U.S. market research company based in Naples, Florida. Barnes Reports publishes hundreds of market research reports on global industries and products in the largest global information databases, such as EBSCO, S&P Global, and Refinitiv.

This report, strongly influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic, paints a bleak picture of the future and describes a contested, fragmented and turbulent world. It specifically discusses the four main trends that will shape tomorrow's world: - Demographics-by 2040, 1.4 billion people will be added mostly in Africa and South Asia. - Economics-increased government debt and concentrated economic power will escalate problems for the poor and middleclass. - Climate-a hotter world will increase water, food, and health insecurity. - Technology-the emergence of new technologies could both solve and cause problems for human life. Students of trends, policymakers, entrepreneurs, academics, journalists and anyone eager for a glimpse into the next decades, will find this report, with colored graphs, essential reading.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “I would say that learning this material ... has lifted some of the existential weight from me. Things aren’t as bad as they are trumpeted to be. In fact, they’re quite a bit better, and they’re getting better, and so we’re doing a better job than we thought. There’s more to us than we thought. We’re adopting our responsibilities as stewards of the planet rapidly. We are moving towards improving everyone’s life." —Jordan B. Peterson, Beyond Order: 12 More Rules for Life Think the world is getting worse? If so, you’re wrong. The world is, for the most part, actually getting better. But 58 percent of people in 17 countries who were surveyed in 2016 thought that the world was either getting worse or staying the same. Americans were even more glum: 65 percent thought the world was getting worse and only 6 percent thought it was getting better. The uncontroversial data on major global trends in this book will persuade you that this dark view of the state of humanity and the natural world is, in large part, badly mistaken. World population will peak at 8–9 billion before the end of this century, as the global fertility rate continues its fall from 6 children per woman in 1960 to the current rate of 2.4. The global absolute poverty rate has fallen from 42 percent in 1981 to 8.6 percent today. Satellite data show that forest area has been expanding since 1982. Natural resources are becoming ever cheaper and more abundant. Since 1900, the average life expectancy has more than doubled, reaching more than 72 years globally. Of course, major concerns such as climate change, marine plastic pollution, and declining wildlife populations are still with us, but many of these problems are already being ameliorated as a result of the favorable economic, social, and technological trends that are documented in this book. You can’t fix what is wrong in the world if you don’t know what’s actually happening. Ten Global Trends Every Smart Person Should Know will provide busy people with quick-to-read, easily understandable, and entertaining access to surprising facts that they need to know about how the world is really faring.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During bull and bear markets, there is a group of hedge funds and professional traders which have been consistently outperforming traditional investment strategies for the past 30 odd years. They have shown remarkable uncorrelated performance and in the great bear market of 2008 they had record gains. These traders are highly secretive about their proprietary trading algorithms and often employ top PhDs in their research teams. Yet, it is possible to replicate their trading performance with relatively simplistic models. These traders are trend following cross asset futures managers, also known as CTAs. Many books are written about them but none explain their strategies in such detail as to enable the reader to emulate their success and create their own trend following trading business, until now. Following the Trend explains why most hopefuls fail by focusing on the wrong things, such as buy and sell rules, and teaches the truly important parts of trend following. Trading everything from the Nasdaq index and T-bills to currency crosses, platinum and live hogs, there are large gains to be made regardless of the state of the economy or stock markets. By analysing year by year trend following performance and attribution the reader will be able to build a deep understanding of what it is like to trade futures in large scale and where the real problems and opportunities lay. Written by experienced hedge fund manager Andreas Clenow, this book provides a comprehensive insight into the strategies behind the booming trend following futures industry from the perspective of a market participant. The strategies behind the success of this industry are explained in great detail, including complete trading rules and instructions for how to replicate the performance of successful hedge funds. You are in for a potentially highly profitable roller coaster ride with this hard and honest look at the positive as well as the negative sides of trend following.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trends have become a commodity—an element of culture in their own right and the very currency of our cultural life. Consumer culture relies on a new class of professionals who explain trends, predict trends, and in profound ways even manufacture trends. On Trend delves into one of the most powerful forces in global consumer culture. From forecasting to cool hunting to design thinking, the work done by trend professionals influences how we live, work, play, shop, and learn. Devon Powers' provocative insights open up how the business of the future kindles exciting opportunity even as its practices raise questions about an economy increasingly built on nonstop disruption and innovation. Merging industry history with vivid portraits of today's trend visionaries, Powers reveals how trends took over, what it means for cultural change, and the price all of us pay to see—and live—the future.

Book excerpt: This much is true: Some people are simply happier with a little sand between their toes than with their feet stuffed into shiny shoes. Perhaps it just makes us grounded, even for a short spell. One never knows what one might step in at any moment. We can all be fashion victims. We all have been. Fashion leads to foibles. It's inevitable. Style is funny, especially when we take it too seriously. What's more: Style can be a metaphor for living, whether we follow the standards of the day or not. This poetry collection reviews such stories with rhyme and meter and more than a measure of wry wrinkles. Try it on for size.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over recent years, education systems across the globe have experimented with the concept of the autonomous school. This takes a variety of forms and the schools involved have different titles, such as charter schools in the USA, academies in England, free schools in Sweden and independent public schools in Australia. As this radical trend in policy gains momentum, Inside the Autonomous School considers whether the model is achieving its desired aims. Drawing on evidence from an in-depth, longitudinal study of an academy located in an urban district in England, this book traces the various developments which took place in the school on its journey from ‘failing’, to achieving an inspection rating of ‘outstanding’. The authors present a rich, first-hand account of the impacts that various policies and practices have had on the autonomous school and at the same time, situate their accounts and analyses within a wider national and international context. This leads them to consider what can be done to ensure that school autonomy consistently promotes excellence and equity within education systems. A fascinating read and invaluable resource for practitioners, researchers and policy makers in the field of education, Inside the Autonomous School sheds much needed light on an increasingly established policy which is set to have far-reaching effects.
