Our longevity in the investment advisory business in not the only factor that sets us apart from the competition. Indeed, the newsletter industry is often regarded as a "cottage industry," where a single person is the entire research, editorial, customer service, and production department rolled into one.

That is not the case at Dow Theory Forecasts. Our depth runs throughout the entire organization, from our experienced research team to our customer-service department. Indeed, since all of our operations are done in-house -- from opening the subscribers' mail and keeping subscription records to typesetting and mailing the newsletter -- our ability to serve you is unparalleled in the industry.

Higher-quality people provide higher-quality advice. That is why Dow Theory Forecasts employs analysts with strong academic and professional backgrounds. Below is some background information on the people responsible for Dow Theory Forecasts.
