Elliott H. Gue

The official program of the 2008 G-8 Summit in Tokyo called Elliott Gue "the world's leading energy strategist," a testament to his deep understanding of global energy markets. Since 2005, Elliott has shared his expertise in each issue of The Energy Strategist, a semimonthly financial advisory that unearths the most profitable short-term and long-term opportunities in this space and outlines the interrelated economic and geopolitical forces that drive these markets.

Elliott accurately predicted the last two price run-ups in oil prices, and investors who followed his lead after the Macondo oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico also made a killing. His prescient calls on seaborne coal prices, uranium prices and the futility of investing in several hot alternative-energy stocks have also enabled his Portfolios to generate market-beating returns.

Elliott also contributes his knowledge of global energy markets and growth investing strategies as the editor of the long-running investment newsletter, Personal Finance. In addition, Elliott is the co-editor, along with Yiannis Mostrous, of Cocktail Stocks, where they give readers their #1 stock pick monthly for explosive growth. Lastly, Elliott regularly writes for Yiannis’ Global Investment Strategist, one of Investing Daily’s best performing portfolios.

His latest endeavor, MLP Profits, covers high-yielding master limited partnerships and includes sample portfolios for aggressive and conservative investors, advice on the tax treatment of MLPs, and proprietary ratings of every name in the Alerian MLP Index.

He also co-authored The Rise of the State: Profitable Investing and Geopolitics in the 21st Century (Financial Times Press) and The Silk Road to Riches: How You Can Profit by Investing in Asia's Newfound Prosperity (Prentice Hall).

Prior to joining Investing Daily, Elliott lived and worked in Europe for five years, earning a bachelor’s degree in economics and management and a master’s degree in finance at the University of London. He was the first American student to complete a full degree at this prestigious business school.

While Elliott lives and breathes investments, he also enjoys travel, fine wine, red meat and anything hooked to the end of his fly-fishing rod.
