boomster
Bullish economy predictor
A boomster is someone who promotes or creates a boom—typically an economic surge or real estate bubble.
The term often carries skeptical undertones, suggesting someone who hypes growth for personal gain: The boomsters promised the development would transform the town.
Less commonly, boomster refers to a baby boomer, usually dismissively.
