Damon Vickers is a seasoned investor, author, and market commentator with decades of experience navigating financial markets. With a keen eye for identifying major market trends, Vickers has made a name for himself through bold market calls and strategic investments.
Born in 1964, Damon grew up witnessing firsthand the economic turmoil of the 1973–74 recession. His grandfather’s sailboat business collapsed due to high interest rates and a deteriorating economy. This left a lasting impression on Damon, reinforcing a core belief: the market rewards those who adapt and crushes those who don’t.
His early exposure to the markets was further influenced by his father, a floor trader for Goldman Sachs on the New York Stock Exchange. In 1984, when Investor’s Business Daily was launched, Damon quickly became an avid reader. Though initially lost in the complexity of market analysis, he persevered, developing a deep understanding of market dynamics, technical analysis, and stock selection.
By the 1990s, Vickers was a successful stockbroker, guiding his investors into some of the most transformative companies of the era
Among the companies that his investors invested in during the 1990s were Starbucks, Amazon, Cisco Systems, US Robotics, and CMGI—many of which became dominant players in the tech-driven economy.
The Nasdaq ultimately fell almost 80% from its highs, devastating investors who failed to heed the warning.
Again, in 2008, his hedge fund successfully profited during the financial crisis, shorting major firms like General Motors, AIG, and Lehman Brothers, gaining an impressive 63% that year.
Damon is also the author of the New York Times best-selling book,
The Day After the Dollar Crashes: A Survival Guide for the Rise of the New World Order, published in 2011.
Through his career, Damon has remained committed to understanding the ever-evolving financial landscape and sharing his insights with those eager to navigate the markets with clarity and confidence.
In 2013, Damon’s hedge fund posted a remarkable 102% return before he stepped away from fund management.
His insights and contrarian market views have been widely recognized, leading to appearances on CNBC, Bloomberg, Fox Business, and in major financial publications.
Most recently, during 2023–24, Damon positioned his investments early in the artificial intelligence wave, recognizing the transformative potential of companies like NVIDIA, Broadcom, Taiwan Semiconductor, and Google.
