Academic Endorsements (Ingested 2026-04-18)
- Mason Gaffney (2009) formally reviewed The Secret Life of Real Estate and Banking as UCR Working Paper 200905, finding it “on the whole persuasive.” Gaffney confirms Anderson “establishes the reality of an 18-year cycle in real estate prices, 1800 to date” and finds the same sequence of leading/lagging indicators in each cycle.
