Financial Intelligence Report continually spots new trends, helps its readers make money, and gives you expert analysis on the financial markets each and every month.
Since 2002, we've shown an uncanny ability to ferret out what is truly happening as it relates to the U.S. and global economy. It's easy to join the chorus line. We prefer to give you the facts before the rest.
Our reports and predictions have been so uncannily accurate, they read like prophesy. Here are some key trends we focused on in 2007 (and our first "early warning" of each trend):
- Housing bust (FIR's first warning: 2005)
- Credit crunch (2005)
- Falling dollar (2004)
- Skyrocketing oil (2006)
- Rising gold price (2004)
The Mainstream Financial Media Isn't
Telling You What You Need to
Know to Survive and Prosper in 2008
Granted, the U.S. government has good reasons in artificially lowering the official inflation rate: Interest payments on treasuries and social security payments are reduced by billions of dollars. Also, our economic growth rate (GDP) is officially "deflated" by a smaller number, which makes our politically-important growth rate appear healthier and the threat of recession seem more distant.
But what's up with the mainstream business media and their "see no evil, hear no evil" coverage of all this? As we said earlier, hardly any of the expert economists and gurus didn't expect a recession following the 2000 tech crash, either.
Forewarned is forearmed: We invite you to subscribe to Financial Intelligence Report, and use it as your early-warning radar for global trends: You'll get real-world investment news and ideas you won't get from the mainstream news media.
The News Isn't All Bad Big Opportunities
Ahead For Savvy Investors. We Show You Them All.
Investment opportunities are always out there, in good times and bad. New opportunities are waiting for you in 2008, and FIR can help you find them: Every issue is packed with news and recommendations for up-and-coming stocks that meet our investment criteria.
Our stock picks clobbered the S&P 500 in 2004 through 2006: +15% in 2006, +28% in 2005, and +58.4% in 2004. And in addition to great stock picks, FIR covers stocks, bonds, munis, options, commodities and precious metals.
Consider this: If you had subscribed to Financial Intelligence Report four years ago with just $50,000 in your account and followed our advice and recommendations precisely, it would be worth $181,336 today without having added a single penny!
Contrarian Insights
There's an old proverb that says, "In many counselors, there you will find wisdom."
At Financial Intelligence Report, we take that one step further. We believe in reaching out to some of the smartest, well connected and often contrarian minds on the planet.
Former Secretary of State Alexander M. Haig, also a noted business leader who was a founding director of AOL, says bluntly, "Financial Intelligence Report is a must read for every global investor."
You'd be surprised to learn just how many financial gurus and billionaires agree with Gen. Haig and subscribe to Financial Intelligence Report.
They turn to us because of our unique brain trust.
Financial Intelligence Report is edited each month by a team of analysts and experts led by its publisher, Christopher Ruddy.
Ruddy, a graduate of the London School of Economics, serves on the board of the prestigious Financial Publisher's Association, and has been a noted commentator and author.

- Axel Merk, president of Merk Investments, an independent investment adviser focused on growth, value, gold, and cash strategies.
- Etienne "Hans" Parisis, a Belgian-born bank economist who has advised global billionaires and governments on the financial markets and international investments. Hans is based in Panama City, Panama.
This is just a part of our team. Our approach is not to rely on insular opinions about the markets, but to seek out the best and brightest, globally.
That's why each month Financial Intelligence Report is filled with unique insights from global investors such as commodities expert Jim Rogers . . . billionaire Warren Buffett . . . legendary investor Sir John Templeton . . . UCLA economist Edward Leamer . . . and Wharton School expert Jeremy Siegel.
