Larry Jeddeloh

Larry Jeddeloh is considered to be one of Americas best respected independent investment management professionals.

Larry Jeddeloh constantly travels the world and has more connections and sources than anyone out there. He routinely predicts global events and trends that are scoffed at as one-in-a-million long shots by the market (and the uninformed) only to have them routinely come to pass. Larry is also a very successful money manager, so he knows how to translate his predictions into actionable ideas.

Based in Minneapolis, his 30 year tenure in the industry along with the deep network of contacts spanning multiple continents, bring unique perspective to his research. His current outlook for the US and world economy, and for the financial markets, reflects his belief that business cycles end in recessions, but credit cycles end in depressions and that we will witness further declines in the markets. In early 2007, Larry correctly predicted a significant slow-down in the US economy stemming directly from problems he was highlighting in the credit system.
