About the author

James Montier is an expert in behavioral finance, argues that investors would have a greater chance of spotting the formation of bubbles if they could only brush up on their history and have a greater awareness of human psychology. He has been a top-rated strategist in the annual Thomson Reuters Extel survey for the last five years. When not reading, writing, or speaking, Montier can usually be found swimming with sharks and blowing bubbles at fishes.
