Into the book
The world economy is a chain of connected dominoes.
When one piece falls, everything shakes.
When the US stumbles, factories in China close.
Naturally, a chain reaction will occur in Korea as well. The IMF projects that Korea's economic growth rate will barely rebound from 0.9% in 2025 to 1.8% in 2026.
However, this number should be viewed as a ‘precarious balance’ rather than ‘stability’.
Because the first dominoes—the US AI bubble, the stock market overheating, signs of a recession, and the sovereign debt explosion in China and Europe—have already been tipped.

The topic covered in this book is precisely those 'tilted pieces'.
When the first domino piece falls, you'll open your stock app while sipping your morning coffee and see your screen go completely blue.
"What's going on? It was fine until yesterday!" "AI stocks are crashing."
"OpenAI is in crisis due to funding shortages." "Did you see the news? France is reaching out to the IMF due to government debt." As these words are heard, the once peaceful surroundings are instantly thrown into chaos.
Doesn't this scene seem a little familiar? It's exactly like the scene in September 2000, when the dot-com bubble burst.

Every time I hear economists say, “2026 is stable,” I laugh.
Because I know that their jobs don't allow them to openly tell bad news.
But we must be different.
We must face the disaster that may occur.
Just as Trump's tariff policies shook global trade in 2025, an even bigger storm could come in 2026.
A crisis is an opportunity, but ignoring it leads to ruin.
By the end of this introduction, I hope you're thinking, "Yes, I should prepare myself."

Publisher's Review
Bubbles burst, debt piles up, and exchange rates fluctuate.
Are your assets safe in 2026?


In 2025, stocks, gold, and Bitcoin are simultaneously hitting record highs every day, raising rosy expectations.
But behind the scenes, several signs are being detected that are making investors uneasy.
The shadow of a bubble lurking behind the dazzling AI revolution, the stagnation of the real economy contrasting with the booming stock market, the pressure of national debt weighing on Europe and China, and the potential for Trump's tariff policies and geopolitical conflicts to ignite the flames at any moment.
Expert predictions for 2026 vary widely, ranging from optimism that stock prices will continue to rise for the foreseeable future to pessimism that a catastrophic bubble burst is imminent. However, they all agree that the current precarious balance could be disrupted at any moment.
Everyone's attention is focused on when that time will come, what the aftermath will be, and how each person should prepare and respond.


This book attempts to predict the complex crises that will be brought about by storms of different nature in 2026.
Chapter 1 delves into the true nature of the AI ​​bubble, drawing on reports from various economic research institutes and Nvidia's trends.
Chapter 2 reveals the true face of the Chinese economy, caught in the three traps of real estate, local government, and growth engines, along with the European crisis that began in France.
Chapter 3 diagnoses bubble signs using Minsky's financial instability hypothesis and sharply analyzes key indicators that signal an economic downturn.
Finally, Chapter 4 forecasts the future Korea will face amidst rapid changes in the global economy and presents specific response strategies to survive and thrive in this crisis.

In 2026, we are entering a maelstrom of unprecedented, complex crises.
The success formulas of the past no longer work.
It is time to read the waves of change and take a new position.
This book, "2026 World Economic Scenario: The AI ​​Bubble Burst and the Great Shift in Investment Strategy," presents insights and strategies to survive and thrive in the coming turbulent times.
Beyond simple predictions, we'll delve into the essence of the crisis based on a wealth of data, clearly demonstrating realistic investment solutions to protect your valuable assets.
