Kenneth L. Fisher
Author, Forbes Columnist, CEO Fisher Investments

Ken Fisher is an investment manager, author, and financial thinker of this generation. Ken has proven himself in the investment marketplace with numerous, accurate market calls that often are the exact opposite of most Wall Street speculations. His experience in the markets has also enabled him to create several different Fisher Investments strategies for client investment portfolios. Fisher Investments strategies are unique to the firm, and are the results of closely studying market trends and fluctuations.

Ken is the founder, Chairman and CEO of Fisher Investments, a multi-billion dollar, multi-product money management firm providing most major product categories and serving the institutional and high net worth investors in the U.S., the UK, and Canada. As a leading independent investment management firm, Fisher Investments participates in global equity and fixed income markets. The firm’s affiliate, Grüner Fisher Investments GmbH,* also services investors in Germany.

Ken has written four high-profile financial books to date: best-selling Super Stocks, The Wall Street Waltz, 100 Minds that Made the Market, and his most recent, New York Times Best Seller The Only Three Questions That Count.

Ken is most well known for his monthly Forbes Portfolio Strategy column, which he's been writing for 24 years. In addition, Ken Fisher has been published, interviewed and/or been written about in numerous major American, British, and German finance and business periodicals. He writes a weekly column for Handelsblatt, Germany's leading daily.

Often published in professional and scholarly journals, including prize-winning works, for two decades his research has spawned many new concepts that are now often adopted into today's core financial curriculum. His recent research focuses on the emerging field called behavioral finance, where behavioral psychology and finance intersect.

Ken's hobbies include the history of Kings Mountain, California and 19th century redwood lumbering history. He resides in Woodside, California with his wife, Sherrilyn.
