Valuable Market Insight
Randy Beeman and the folks over at the Wise Investor Show really know their stuff. I’ve listened to the Wise Investor Show for a couple years now and I’m excited that it’s now available on iTunes. Randy put what’s currently going on in the economy into perspective and provides insight into what the market is doing – and often into what the market will do. The Wise Investor Show has really shaped my financial future and I highly recommend it! Keep up the great work over there!
These are the experts.
The Wise Investor Group has been calling the markets better than anyone I have heard. I am impressed every time I listen.
Insightful, analytical and logical
I discovered this podcast about 2 weeks ago. I listened to a few prior shows going back to August 08, and found them to be the very informative and insightful. Back in August, not only did Randy and his partners talked about the warning signs they saw for the stock market, but they also explained their sound reasoning behind that belief. I also found Randy’s candid analysis and conclusions based simply on economic data refreshing.
