In Winning the Investment Game, James Gipson takes a macro look at the economic trends of the last half of this turbulent 20th century. Three types of economic matter are used as models: Positive sum, zero sum and negative sum economies.

In a zero sum economy, a loser exists for every winner. New wealth is not accumulated by the creation and expansion of productive business. Rather, existing wealth is shifted around.
