Dr. Stephen Leeb is the editor of The Complete Investor newsletter. The Complete Investor newsletter has earned awards for Editorial Excellence for 2004 and 2005 by the Newsletter & Electronic Publishers Association.
Dr. Leeb is the author of six books on investments and financial trends. His newest book is Game Over: How to Prosper In A Shattered Economy.
His best-selling book The Oil Factor: Protect Yourself – and Profit – from the Coming Energy Crisis (Warner Books, 2004) accurately predicted the surge in oil prices and was rated among the top investment books of the year by Stock Trader’s Almanac 2005. It also forecasts a longer-term energy squeeze, further price rises and lays out a detailed investment plan for coping with this new world.
His previous book, Defying the Market: Profiting in the Turbulent Post-Technology Market Boom (McGraw-Hill; 1999) predicted the collapse of technology stocks and the growing importance of oil, real estate, and other hard assets in portfolio strategy. The book was selected by Library Journal as one of the Best Business Books of 1999. Dr. Leeb co-authored both books with his wife, Donna Leeb.
