Chairman, Casey Research LLC

Doug Casey is a highly respected author, publisher and professional investor who graduated from Georgetown University in 1968 as a classmate of Bill Clinton. He didn't inhale, either. Doug literally wrote the book on profiting from periods of economic turmoil: his book "Crisis Investing" became the best-selling financial book in history, remaining #1 on the New York Times bestseller list for a then-record 29 weeks. Then Doug broke the record with his next book, "Strategic Investing", by receiving the largest advance ever paid for a financial book. He has appeared on hundreds of radio and TV shows, including Donahue, Letterman, Charlie Rose, NBC News, and CNN and been featured in numerous periodicals including People, US, Time, Forbes, the Washington Post, and many others. Doug, who divides his time between homes in Aspen, Colorado and Auckland, New Zealand, and Cafayate, Argentina has written a newsletter and alert service for sophisticated investors for almost 30 years. He's visited over 175 countries, and lived in 10. In addition to serving as a trustee on the Board of Governors of Washington College, Doug has been a director and advisor to nine different financial corporations. Doug is widely respected as one of the preeminent authorities on "rational speculation", especially in the high-potential natural resource sector.
