Before creating Speculators Anonymous – Adem spent years working in the financial industry. He’s previously worked at Stansberry Research as a research analyst, and most recently Palisade Global Investments as a macro-analyst and chief-editor. He’s spoken at exclusive international investment conferences and has been featured on investment panels. He’s also advised public and private companies in the mining sector, as well as orchestrated and organized private placements. Adem is a born contrarian and has extensive knowledge of markets, financial history, and economics. He is a value investor and fascinated with cycle theory. But his focus on ‘black swans’ and how to position oneself to make huge returns during volatile times is what really separates him from the rest.
