Ian Cooper


Ian CooperFor eight years, he's avoided the herd mentality of Wall Street.

That would explain why he bought housing before the 2004 rise and shorted sub-prime and big housing names before the 2007 fall . . . all while the "experts" suggested doing the opposite.

In 1999, Ian left a job in public relations because he couldn't stand saying good things about companies he didn't like, and he's been a financial analyst ever since. His passion for Wall Street, technical analysis and the idea of fast money fueled the move.

Since then, Ian has written numerous articles on topics as diverse as trading news, mergers and acquisitions, crude oil, housing, and emerging market opportunities.

He's appeared in Investor's Business Daily and Forbes.com and has been a frequent guest on Money Matters with Barry Armstrong, Stock Dr. with Lee Seiler, and On the Money with Mike Stein.

Nowadays, Ian relies on technical and fundamental analysis for investment decisions, and has leveraged his options and stock trading passion to fuel his search for quick profits. Which is just what you can expect him to deliver to his readership.
