The
Martial
Artist
of Trend
Forecasting
The
purpose
of trend
forecasting
is to
provide
insights
and directions
in anticipation
of what
the future
may bring
and to
be prepared
for the
unexpected.
Gerald
Celente,
a Close
Combat
practitioner
and
black
belt
trainer,
well
understands
the
importance
of proacting
rather
than
reacting:
"The
first
rule
of Close
Combat
is to
attack
the
attacker.
Action
is faster
than
reaction.
The
same
holds
true
for
the
future.
You
know
the
future
is coming
attack
it before
it attacks
you."
Founder
of The
Trends
Research
Institute
in 1980,
Gerald
Celente
is a
pioneer
trend
strategist.
He is
author
of the
national
bestseller
Trends
2000
and
Trend
Tracking
(Warner
Books)
"Far
better
than
Megatrends,"
and
publisher
of the
internationally
circulated
Trends
Journal
newsletter.
Political
Atheist
Gerald
Celente
is a
political
atheist.
Unencumbered
by political
dogma,
rigid
ideology
or conventional
wisdom,
Celente,
whose
motto
is "think
for
yourself,"
observes
and
analyzes
the
current
events
forming
future
trends
for
what
they
are
not
for
the
way
he wants
them
to be.
Like
a doctor
giving
a diagnosis
after
gathering
the
facts,
whether
or not
you
like
the
prognosis
doesnt
alter
the
outcome,
make
him
an optimist
or pessimist
its
simply
what
is.
And
while
Celente
holds
a US
passport,
he considers
himself
a citizen
of the
world.
Globalnomic®
Trend
Forecaster
Using
his
unique
perspectives
on current
events
forming
future
trends,
Gerald
Celente
developed
the
Globalnomic®
methodology
which
is used
to identify,
track,
forecast
and
manage
trends.
The
world's
only
trends
analyst
covering
300
diversified
trends
fields,
Gerald
Celente
and
the
Trends
Research
Institute
provide
trend
research
studies
and
consulting
services
to businesses
and
governments
worldwide.
Celente
also
designed
the
nations
first
professional
course
in trend
forecasting.
The
proof
is in
his
past
Gerald
Celente
has
earned
his
reputation
as "The
most
trusted
name
in trends"
by accurately
forecasting
hundreds
of social,
business,
consumer,
environmental,
economic,
political,
entertainment,
and
technology
trends.
Among
them:
Celente
coined
the
term
"clean
foods"
in 1993
and
predicted
sustained
growth
in organic
products
in 1988.
When
gold
was
at $275
per
ounce
in 2002,
Celente
said
the
price
had
bottomed
and
in 2004
forecast
the
beginning
of the
"Gold
Bull
Run."
Since
that
time,
with
pinpoint
accuracy,
he said
when,
why
- and
how
high
- gold
would
go.

About
Peter Grandich
Managing Member, Grandich
Publications, LLC.
With
no formal education or training,
Peter Grandich entered Wall
Street and within three
years was appointed Vice
President of Investment
Strategy for a leading New
York Stock Exchange member
firm. He was the editor
and publisher of four investment
newsletters, and appeared
on national TV and radio
over 400 times.
Labeled
the Wall Street Whiz Kid,
Grandich gained national
notoriety by being among
the very few who not only
forecasted the 1987 stock
market crash just weeks
before it happened, but
on the very next day he
predicted that within a
year the market would reach
a new all-time high which
it did. Proving his 1987
forecast was no fluke, Mr.
Grandich said in January
2000 that the year 2000
will go down as the year
the great mega bull market
of the 80s and 90s came
to an end.
He
speaks at numerous major
investment conferences worldwide
and was awarded Best Speaker
Award eight times by the
International Investors
Conferences.
