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:
In the spirit of Tax Day, let’s stop for a minute to consider where all of your tax dollars go… and highlight some of the truly asinine things Uncle Sam has chosen to waste our money on.
Young people today no longer believe in capitalism. Sadly, it’s been a long time since we’ve seen real capitalism in the wild, but young voters aren’t big on nuance right now. They’re angry, and the solutions they’re going to demand at the ballot box are only going to make the problems worse…
Inflation came in hotter than expected yesterday, effectively killing Wall Street’s expectations of a May 1 interest rate cut. The Fed funds futures market is now pricing in a 94% probability that rates remain unchanged at 5.25% to 5.5%. So now what?
Remember those three rate cuts that the Federal Reserve all but promised this year… the ones that Wall Street enthusiastically priced in? You might want to curb your enthusiasm.
Wall Street will obsess over inflation data as it always does, but the fact of the matter remains that we do need to see inflation fall before the Federal Reserve will cut key interest rates.
When the world looks like it’s crashing down, investors take solace in knowing their wealth is protected by the most powerful military force in the history of mankind. But what happens when the safe haven itself appears to be at risk because those in charge of protecting it – namely the Federal Reserve – are the ones generating the chaos?
