Daryl Montgomery is the organizer of the New York Investing meetup, a group of 2500 independent investors and traders that provides the public with unbiased economic and market information. The New York Investing meetup has become the largest investing meetup in the world because of its highly accurate and timely predictions, which include the Credit Crisis was about to blow up in July 2007, a major Bear Market was about to begin in September 2007 and that a recession was starting in December 2007. The group also called a top in gold and silver in March 2008 and the exact day of the oil bottom in February 2009.

Montgomery writes the popular Helicopter Economics Investing Guide and is one of the originators of the term 'Helicopter Economics'. He is a former professor and is now uses his research as a full time trader. Montgomery has never worked for, nor has any association with the securities industry and this allows him to bring a fresh perspective to market analysis. The slogan for his group is "A profitiable alternative to Wall Street hype".

Daryl Montgomery is currently working on a book on inflation investing.
