Keith Fitz-Gerald's goal is to help you make money every day with everything you own, and with less risk than you ever thought possible. He is known for his ability to present complex information in a clear, concise manner, and follow it up with specific recommendations that are easy to act on. His commentary resonates with investors who are fed up with Wall Street hype and who want to earn better, more consistent returns with lower risk.

He currently serves as the Investment Director of Agora's Money Morning and the editor of the New China Trader trading service.

Keith is a licensed Commodity Trading Adviser (CTA) with clients in the U.S., Europe and Asia, and serves as a professional trade adviser to several major institutions and high net-worth individuals engaged in futures trading and hedging. He is also a recognized expert and pioneer in the use of non-linear analysis to determine profitable investment opportunities.

He holds a B.S. in Management and Finance with highest honors from Skidmore College in New York. He also holds an MSJBS (also with honors) with concentration in International Finance awarded jointly by Chaminade University in Hawaii and Ritsumeikan University of Kyoto, Japan.

Keith began his financial career 20 years ago at Wilshire Associates, one of the most prominent financial consulting firms in the world, where he worked with all facets of client management, portfolio allocation and risk assessment. After becoming personally frustrated with what Wall Street had to offer, Keith decided it was high time individual investors knew there was a better way to build wealth. Spreading that word has become his life's mission, and in the late 1990s he began his own investment newsletter that has grown into The Skeptical Investor of today.

He prefers to live 3,000 miles away from Wall Street in Oregon so he's free of the group-think that dooms so many investors to failure. When not "working his screens," he is a competitive triathlete and martial artist. He and his wife, Noriko, have two boys.
