The King is Dead

Ed is the Dollar Vigilante's Senior Analyst, Founding Partner and Editor. He is a financial analyst and investment strategist who specializes in precious metals and mining stocks. He has been a featured speaker at several investment conferences and has been quoted in various financial publications including Marketwatch and Forbes. Ed has been a dedicated investment professional since 1989, having started his career as a stock and futures broker on Howe Street at one of Vancouver's leading brokerage firms.

There Ed made money for his clients by financing the early rounds of exploration for diamonds in the North West Territories, where nobody previously believed they existed. Like Jeff, Ed has made millions for investors going against the grain like that. In 2000 Ed left the brokerage industry at the height of a tech mania to start one of the first gold and money newsletters online. He is one of the first and maybe still the only analyst to apply the Austrian Business Cycle Theory to the bull and bear market cycles on Wall Street. He has been covering the dollar collapse story since gold hit its multi decade bottom ($285).

In the last decade, Ed jumped on board the cryptocurrency train with Jeff Berwick early in the cycle, returning gains of hundreds and thousands in percentage points over the years. Ed is an ardent student of the Austrian School, and toils on a portfolio and trading strategies that he publishes in our newsletter regularly. He designs and publishes a macro investment strategy and a stock portfolio loosely based on his own.

Along with Jeff, Ed hates the State in the Rothbardian sense, and does everything he can to expose how central banks and governments rig the financial playing fields.
