About Ken Fisher: Bestselling Author, Forbes Columnist, Fisher Investments CEO

Kenneth Fisher is perhaps best known for his Forbes "Portfolio Strategy" column, where an over 27 year tenure of engaging market commentary makes him the fourth longest-running columnist in the magazine's history. Since 2000, his Forbes market calls have been among the most accurate as measured by third-party CXO Advisory Group1, the research firm whose "Guru Grades" rates the accuracy of publicly available expert forecasts of the US stock market.

Ken Fisher has written eight books, including four New York Times bestsellers, 2010's Debunkery: Learn It, Do It, and Profit From It, 2009's How to Smell a Rat, 2008's The Ten Roads to Riches and 2006's The Only Three Questions that Count. His most recent book is Markets Never Forget, published by Wiley in November 2011. In 1984, his Super Stocks was that year's bestselling stock market book. Others include 1987's The Wall Street Waltz and 1993's 100 Minds that Made the Market–both recently re-released by John Wiley & Sons. In addition to English, Ken's books have been translated into Chinese, German, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Romanian, and Thai, reaching of 3/4 of global GDP.2
