About Garet Garrett:
Garet Garrett (1878–1954), born Edward Peter Garrett, was an American journalist and author who was noted for his critiques of the New Deal and U.S. involvement in the Second World War.



Early years:
Garet Garrett was born in 1878 in Illinois. By 1903, he had become a well known writer for the old New York Sun. In 1911, he wrote a fairly successful book, Where the Money Grows and Anatomy of the Bubble. In 1916, at the age of 38, Garrett became the executive editor of the New York Tribune, after having worked as a financial writer for The New York Times, the Saturday Evening Post, and The Wall Street Journal. From 1920 to 1933, his primary focus was on writing books.

Between 1920 and 1932 Garrett wrote eight books, including The American Omen in 1928 and A Bubble That Broke the World in 1932. He also wrote regular columns for several business and financial publications.

Political Viewpoint:
Garrett's political viewpoint overall, and the central theme throughout all his books, is libertarian or classical liberal. All his works exemplify the basic premise that a man is responsible for his own life, and that no man can expect a free ride off others, through forced income distribution schemes such as socialism and communism. As the 20th century progressed, he believed that Americans were signing away their birthright of freedom, through trading in their responsibilities of self-governance and self-responsibility, in return for more socialist measures such as FDR's New Deal expansion of government.

His most influential work is commonly regarded to be The Driver. Published in 1922, it tells the story of an entrepreneur who, through is own vision and work ethic, takes over a failing railway, turning it into a hugely productive and profitable asset for the benefit of himself and the rest of the nation. Unable to see what he has achieved in turning his own business and the wider economy around from recession to boom, and blinded by the intense wealth and power he enjoys as a result, the general population and the government turn against him, ultimately destroying him instead of celebrating his success.

Justin Raimondo and the Ludwig von Mises Institute have observed that there are similarities between Atlas Shrugged published in 1957 and The Driver. It is unknown whether Rand was familiar with this work, but The Driver’s central character is Henry Galt, while Atlas Shrugged’s principal character is John Galt. At one point in The Driver, someone asks, "Who is Henry Galt?"; in Atlas Shrugged, many characters repeatedly inquire, "Who is John Galt?"

Critic of the New Deal and Roosevelt's foreign policy:

After the election of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Garrett went on to become one of the most vocal critics of the New Deal and what he saw as its socialist measures. He wrote a series of his columns in the Saturday Evening Post between 1933 to 1940, which were later compiled into a collection of his essays titled Salvos against the New Deal: Selections from the Saturday Evening Post: 1933-1940, published in 2002. The Saturday Evening Post kept Garrett on as a columnist despite the fact that at one point it became financially perilous for the magazine to do so. In 1940 the management of the Saturday Evening Post made Garrett editorial-writer-in-chief after the death of George Horace Lorimer. Garrett was highly critical of the Roosevelt Administration's moves toward intervention in the war then underway in Europe; he covered this topic in a series of editorials which were collected under the title Defend America First: The Antiwar Editorials of the Saturday Evening Post, 1939-1942, which was published in 2003.

Later Years:
In 1953, Garrett published The People's Pottage (later republished as The Burden of Empire and more recently as Ex America: the 50th Anniversary of the People's Pottage), which consisted of 3 essays: "The Revolution Was", "Ex America" and "The Rise of Empire"). Through these works, he questioned the aftermath of the Roosevelt administration and its impact on American society. In these works, he coined a phrase for a revolutionary methodology used by conservative thinking to understand the transformation of the old culture/regime: "revolution within the form." Garet Garrett died in 1954 at the age of 76.

About Richard Russell, author of the book above and publisher of "Dow Theory Letters"

Russell began publishing Dow Theory Letters in 1958, and he has been writing the Letters ever since (never once having skipped a Letter). Dow Theory Letters is the oldest service continuously written by one person in the business.

Russell gained wide recognition via a series of over 30 Dow Theory and technical articles that he wrote for Barron's during the late-'50s through the '90s. Through Barron's and via word of mouth, he gained a wide following. Russell was the first (in 1960) to recommend gold stocks. He called the top of the 1949-'66 bull market. And almost to the day he called the bottom of the great 1972-'74 bear market, and the beginning of the great bull market which started in December 1974.

The Letters, published every three weeks, cover the US stock market, foreign markets, bonds, precious metals, commodities, economics --plus Russell's widely-followed comments and observations and stock market philosophy.

In 1989 Russell took over Julian Snyder's well-known advisory service, "International Moneyline", a service which Mr. Synder ran from Switzerland. Then, in 1998 Russell took over the Zweig Forecast from famed market analyst, Martin Zweig. Russell has written articles and been quoted in such publications as Bloomberg magazine, Barron's, Time, Newsweek, Money Magazine, the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, Reuters, and others. Subscribers to Dow Theory Letters number over 12,000, hailing from all 50 states and dozens of overseas counties.

A native New Yorker (born in 1924) Russell has lived through depressions and booms, through good times and bad, through war and peace. He was educated at Rutgers and received his BA at NYU. Russell flew as a combat bombardier on B-25 Mitchell Bombers with the 12th Air Force during World War II.

One of the favorite features of the Letter is Russell's daily Primary Trend Index (PTI), which is a proprietary index which has been included in the Letters since 1971. The PTI has been an amazingly accurate and useful guide to the trend of the market, and it often actually differs with Russell's opinions. But Russell always defers to his PTI. Says Russell, "The PTI is a lot smarter than I am. It's a great ego-deflator, as far as I'm concerned, and I've learned never to fight it."

From Preface: "This book sets forth the research and study of years built around philosophies which have been "scratched" by others and yet, never organized into a week-by-week program for speculative investors to follow in a moderately priced, weekly letter service. Starting in 1960, the FORRESTT FORECASTER will supervise three Model Speculative Portfolios and report on them each week. The Reporting each week will be brief with a weekly total "score" for each portfolio because this book actually sets up each portfolio as to objective, and the how-and-why" of each transaction to be made this year." Forrestt goes on to explain how he has set up his 3 model portfolios and the strategies he'll employ for each. Alexander Forrestt was a registered investment advisor in New Haven, CT.

About Molodovski:
Nicholas Molodovski may be best known for the "Molodovski Effect," which deals PE Ratios. Assuming that a High PE stock is a Growth Stock may be fatal. The problem with this assumption is that the "E" component may be depressed as the earnings are at a low point in the economic cycle. So what you have in this case is a cyclical stock, which may not be a growth stock at all. This misleading High PE is known as the "Molodovsky Effect", named after Nicholas Molodovsky, who discussed this issue in his article "A Theory of Price Earnings Ratios" in the Analysts Journal (1953).

The CFA Institute has named an award in Molodovski's honor and it is still presented periodically to those individuals who have made outstanding contributions of such significance as to change the direction of the profession and to raise it to higher standards of accomplishments. Nicholas Molodovski was the first to receive this award in 1968.
