Sean is from New England. As a youth he worked on Mt. Washington, on the cog railroad that runs to the summit.
Working on the coal-fired, steam-powered trains was hard work but it was also incredible fun, and perfect for someone with an interest in the great outdoors and heavy machinery.
He graduated college with a journalism degree, and experienced the Internet boom and bust firsthand as the personal finance website he worked for suffered a spectacular flameout.
The experience of being dumped on the curb with a handful of useless stock options gave him an appreciation for real assets, something he followed up when he joined Weiss Research as an analyst.
Sean left Weiss to become the investment director of the Sovereign Society, the world’s leading publisher of offshore asset protection strategies and global investment.
There, his report, “70 Days to Empty” garnered acclaim for its analysis of the forces pushing America toward its next oil crisis, and was described by The Daily Reckoning as “the most important report you’re likely to read this year.”
Dr. Weiss lured Sean back by promising he could do anything he wanted. What Sean wanted to do was cover natural resources … especially the little-known, undervalued foreign stocks he picked as likely to ride the next wave of the commodity supercycle.
Now, Sean has a duo of services — Red-Hot Commodity ETFs and Red-Hot Global Small-Caps. He also contributes weekly to Uncommon Wisdom. His report, “The Golden Age of Uranium,” has gathered accolades from investors and industry insiders alike.
He is a weekly guest on Market Matters Radio, a frequent commentator on one of Canada’s premiere financial websites, HoweStreet.com, and from time to time he makes appearances on various U.S. radio and TV news programs. He contributes semi-regularly to Dow Jones Marketwatch.
He travels far and wide to seek out small-cap values in the natural resource sector.
