Chief Investment Strategist, The Freeport Society
Starting at his grandfather’s knee when he was just 10 years old, Charles Sizemore has pursued a career dedicated to helping people achieve financial freedom through smart investing.
Charles has advised multiple hedge funds globally and managed over $120 million in assets.
He holds a Master’s Degree in Finance and Accounting from the London School of Economics and a Bachelor of Business Administration in Finance with an International Emphasis from Texas Christian University in Fort Worth, where he graduated Magna Cum Laude and as a Phi Beta Kappa scholar.
As a keen market observer, economist, investment analyst, and prolific writer, Charles has been a repeat guest on Fox Business, quoted in Barron’s, and featured in numerous well-reputed publications and financial websites, including MarketWatch, TheStreet, InvestorPlace, MSN Money, Seeking Alpha, Stocks, Futures and Options Magazine, The Daily Reckoning, Benzinga, Minyanville, and Investment International.
While Charles enjoys playing basketball and his grandfather’s old saxophone (which he is also teaching his son), his passion lies in finding investment opportunities that become safe havens for investors navigating this Age of Chaos. He is intolerant of deception, misdirection, and the endless eroding of the ideals that once made America great. He is fiercely determined to help investors regain their lives, their liberty, and their wealth.
Charles’s publications and investment research services include:

It wasn’t that long ago that the sun never set on the British Empire… or that Spain was the richest country in the world… or that the Ottoman Empire was a wellspring of art, science, and medicine. Every empire falls… eventually. Unfortunately, it looks like the time of the U.S. Empire has come.
America’s largest companies have rediscovered the virtue of thrift… and expectations were already so bad that beating them was a cakewalk! But their fear of recession could very well bring about what they fear. What’s going on here?
Powell presents an image of being in control. He may even believe it himself! But the events of the past four years have made it clear that Powell is no shadowy puppet master bending the economy to his will. He’s a hapless schmuck reacting to every crisis while never managing to get ahead of it. So what now?
It always makes sense to keep a good-sized piece of your portfolio in shorter-term trading strategies. And for the younger generations, this is now more important than ever.
When we talk about options, remember one thing — volatility rules. It’s the big boss, the critical factor that determines how much an option is really worth. Most of the confusion in options trading comes from not giving volatility the spotlight it demands. That’s a fatal oversight.
