The Complete Investor newsletter has earned awards for Editorial Excellence for 2004 and 2005 by the Newsletter & Electronic Publishers Association.

Dr. Leeb is the author of six books on investments and financial trends. His newest The New York Times best selling business book The Coming Economic Collapse: How You Can Thrive When Oil Costs $200 a Barrel (Warner Books, 2006), co-written with Glen Strathy, was released in February 2006. It outlines the biggest challenges facing the American economy, and the steps individuals and government can take to forestall them.

His previous best-seller The Oil Factor: Protect Yourself – and Profit – from the Coming Energy Crisis (Warner Books, 2004) accurately predicted the surge in oil prices and was rated among the top investment books of the year by Stock Trader’s Almanac 2005. It also forecasts a longer-term energy squeeze, further price rises and lays out a detailed investment plan for coping with this new world. His earlier best selling book, Defying the Market: Profiting in the Turbulent Post-Technology Market Boom (McGraw-Hill; 1999) predicted the collapse of technology stocks and the growing importance of oil, real estate, and other hard assets in portfolio strategy. The book was selected by Library Journal as one of the Best Business Books of 1999. Dr. Leeb co-authored both books with his wife, Donna Leeb.

Dr. Leeb received his bachelor’s degree in Economics from the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School of Business. He then earned his master’s degree in Mathematics and Ph.D. in Psychology from the University of Illinois in just three years, an academic record that still stands. He is frequently quoted in the financial media, including Investors Business Daily, USA Today, Business Week, The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal. In addition, Dr. Leeb has been a recurring guest on Fox News and Bloomberg, and he has appeared on Louis Rukeyser’s Wall Street Week, Business Insiders, and CNBC.
