Byron Wien 2012 (JacquesBopp, 15.01.2012)

Byron R. Wien, Vice Chairman, Blackstone Advisory Partners, issued his list of The Ten Surprises for 2012. This is the 27th year Byron has given his predictions of a number of economic, financial market and political Surprises for the coming year. Byron defines a “Surprise” as an event which the average investor would only assign a one out of three chance of taking place but which Byron believes is “probable,” having a better than 50% likelihood of happening.
