But There's Still Time To Profit From The Peak...


Profit from the Peak Book
The new blockbuster book by
Brian Hicks and Chris Nelder
(Wiley Publishing)

"Peak Oil will replace global warming as the topic everyone is talking about... and between $50 and $100 trillion needs to be invested to stave off a crisis"

-- Matthew Simmons, former energy advisor to President Bush


"...a realistic view of what's happened over the past few years suggests that we're heading into an era of increasingly scarce, costly oil."

-- NY Times, May 12th, 2008


Your new book, Profit from the Peak, is the best written, most detailed explanation of our current situation I've ever read, and I've read probably 20 books on the energy situation. I'll be recommending your book to everyone who cares about the future. Great job!"

-- Frederick A. Green, Wealth Daily Reader


Dear Reader,

They called us "pessimists." Said we were "too paranoid" and were "profiteers of doom and gloom."

And just last month, the talking heads on Fox referred to us as "peak freaks."

That's how the media has described us ever since we made a shocking prediction back on March 3, 2005.

If you missed it, here's what we said that day...

Even the stodgy Steve Forbes couldn't resist taking a swipe. He called us out, and made his own "shocking" prediction...

"In 12 months, you're going to see oil down to $35 to $40 a barrel. It's a huge bubble, I don't know what's going to pop it but eventually it will pop - you cannot go against supply and demand, you cannot go against the fundamentals forever."

We couldn't have said it better ourselves. You can't go against supply and demand forever.

That was over 3 years ago.

And today?

You know the story all too well. Oil is at record levels, hitting nearly $130 a barrel on May 20. And everybody from President Bush to OPEC to the CEOs of Big Oil are now saying exactly what we were saying in 2005: The world's supply of easy oil is quickly running out...

 

They All Agree With Us Now.
  • "An abrupt escalation of oil prices after 2015 as a result of a global supply crisis cannot be ruled out. The consequences of unfettered growth in world energy demand are alarming." - International Energy Agency's World Energy Outlook

  • "Many oil company CEOs privately agree that peak oil is imminent but don't say so publicly." -James Schlesinger, former head of the CIA, Secretary of Defense and Secretary of Energy, September 2007

  • "We may be at a point of peak oil production." -Former President Bill Clinton, London Business School

  • "The era of cheap energy is over - for good." - UK Energy minister Malcolm Wicks

  • "We are experiencing a step-change in the growth rate of energy demand due to population growth and economic development... easy-to-access oil and gas will no longer keep up with demand." -Jeroen van der Veer, CEO Royal Dutch Shell, Jan. 28, 2008

  • "I believe oil prices are going up because the demand for oil outstrips the supply for oil. Oil is going up because we use too much oil, and the capacity to replace reserves is dwindling. That's why the price of oil is going up." -President George Bush, November 7, 2007

 

Folks, we are now living in the era of Peak Oil.

That's why we just released our new book Profit from the Peak to bookstores. The truth of the matter is that we consider Profit from the Peak the final and most profitable chapter in the journey we're calling "the greatest investment event of the century."

Chock full of the latest energy and economic research from two internationally recognized energy and investment analysts, Brian Hicks and Chris Nelder, Profit from the Peak reveals the mind-boggling profit potential the end of oil represents.

"Brian and Chris deliver the painful yet potentially profitable truth about peak oil. Not theory anymore, but reality. This book is a must if you want a clear path to profits in the age of peak oil."
- Kevin Kerr, Editor of Dow Jones Global Resources Trader and President of Kerr Trading International

Make no mistake... If you're not prepared to capitalize on the global ceiling of oil production, you'll miss out on a moneymaking opportunity seven times bigger than the Internet bull market of the 1990s.

Even worse, if you're not prepared, your family could suffer, along with millions of others, if the nation were faced with a prolongued period of gas siphoning, job losses and food shortages.

"This book is a clearly written, succinct, and well-referenced summaryof information about, and related to, what I believe will be the mostimportant issue to strike Western civilization ever: the end of cheapoil. It is clear to me that how we make investments over the next fewdecades will determine whether we can survive the end of cheap oil andin what fashion. While I am not nearly as optimistic as the authorsthat there is a supply-side solution to the issues we will face'post-peak oil,' they certainly have lots of good ideas as to where wemight invest in alternatives. This book is a must-have on the shelf ofany savvy investor as we face the second half of the age of oil."
