Abstract | At a time when some stockbrokers were predicting a 28,000 level for the Hang Seng index, William Overholt, managing director of Bankers Trust Company, correctly foretold the current economic slump in a cautionary speech to the Chamber in October 1997. Having predicted the burst of the property bubble and related pain of rising interest rates, he tells the author how the Hong Kong economy will have to hang tough through the current slump. |
