Founder and President of
the H. S. Dent Foundation,

positive and understandable
view of the future. Mr.

and is known as the developer
of The Dent Method, a forecasting
approach based on changes

stood virtually alone in accurately
forecasting the unanticipated
“Boom” of the 1990s.

audiences about his predictions
for the next and possibly
last great bull market, from
late 2005 into early to mid
2010. Since 1992 he has authored
two consecutive best sellers
The Roaring 2000s and The
Roaring 2000s Investor (Simon
and Schuster). In his latest
book, The Next Great Bubble
Boom, he offers a comprehensive
forecast for the next two
decades and explains how fundamental
trends suggest strong growth
ahead, followed by a longer-term
economic contraction. Mr.
Dent also publishes the HS
Dent Forecast newsletter,
which offers current analysis
of economic, and financial
market trends.Mr.
Dent received his MBA from
