Harry Dent Jr.

Harry Dent, Jr. is a best-selling author and one of the most outspoken financial editors in America. Using proprietary research, Dent developed a unique method for studying economies around the world, and uses his analysis to provide insights on what to expect in the future, otherwise known as The Dent Method - an economic forecasting approach based on changes in demographic trends.

Instead of focusing on endless graphs that assume people behave rationally, Dent instead looks at real people, making real economic decisions for themselves and their families. He combines demographics with actual spending to inform his research.

Dent received his MBA from Harvard Business School, where he was a Baker Scholar and was elected to the Century Club for leadership excellence. He then joined Bain & Company as a Fortune 100 business consultant and now heads the independent research firm HS Dent Publishing.

Since then, he’s spoken to executives, financial advisors and investors around the world about demographics and the power of identifying different trends. Dent has appeared on “Good Morning America,” PBS, CNBC and CNN, Fox News and is a regular guest on Fox Business. He has also been featured in Barron’s, Investor’s Business Daily, Fortune, U.S. News and World Report, Business Week, The Wall Street Journal and many other publications.

Dent has written numerous bestselling books over the last few decades, from "The Great Boom Ahead" in 1992 to "Zero Hour" in 2017. In 2019, Dent published his latest book "Spending Waves," where he shares decades of extensive research covering over 200 businesses across 14 different industries to give readers insight into business and investing trends for the years ahead.
