In Endgame: The End of the Debt Supercycle and How It Changes
Everything, Mauldin and Tepper pull no punches and get directly
the point. ...Endgame is a veritable trip around the world,
as Mauldin lays out the uncomfortable choices facing nearly every
major country. While Mauldin's analysis of the American debt
problem is sobering, his comments on Europe are downright
frightening...Given the noise dominating the newswires, it is
refreshing to find clear, coherent thinking. Our compliments to
Messrs. Mauldin and Tepper on a job well done."
-Charles Sizemore, HS Dent Research Analyst and Editor of
