Todd Buchholz

Trend forecaster & global economy expert

Todd Buchholz "lights up economics with a wickedly sparkling wit," says the Associated Press. His editorials in the Wall Street Journal correctly forecast the 2001 slowdown in the U.S., and Business Week raved about his book Market Shock, which warned of the quicksand facing the stock market. Buchholz shows audiences how to thrive in a challenging economy and how to gear up for future prosperity. Successful Meetings Magazine named him one of the "21 Top Speakers for the 21st Century."

As a former director of economic policy at the White House, a managing director of the $15 billion Tiger hedge fund and an award-winning economics teacher at Harvard, Buchholz targets his entertaining remarks to the cutting edge of economics, finance and business strategy. He has been a senior economic adviser to President Bush and is a frequent commentator on ABC News, PBS, and CBS, and recently hosted his own special on CNBC. Buchholz has debated such luminaries as Lester Thurow, Robert Reich and Nobel Laureate Joseph Stiglitz. He is the Co-Founder of Enso Capital Management and Co-Founder and Managing Director of Two Oceans Management.

Audiences praise Buchholz's presentations for their accuracy and insight into the world economy. Buchholz offers corporations an invaluable perspective on the trends and ideas that are molding our future. He provides an essential guide for navigating the evolving financial landscape that will define business. In addition, as a former "point man" for the White House during the Gulf War, Buchholz can take audiences on a world tour to gauge the "hot spots" that threaten us. Since 9/11 the world has changed, looking even more dangerous than during the Cold War era. At the same time, though, we must appreciate the successes: the countries that have turned from dictatorships to democracies; the economies that have dumped communism for capitalism. Buchholz shows his audience how to handle the risks while keeping hope alive.

Buchholz has authored numerous books that have been translated into a dozen languages and are used in universities nationwide, the likes of which include Harvard and Emory University in Atlanta. His book, Market Shock: 9 Economic and Social Upheavals that Will Shake Our Financial Future, was released to rave reviews and dubbed "outstanding" by the Wall Street Journal. Buchholz is also author of the best seller New Ideas from Dead Economists and From Here to Economy, which were lavishly praised by The New York Times and the Financial Times. In his recent book, Bringing the Jobs Home: How the Left Created the Outsourcing Crisis - and How We Can Fix It, Buchholz explores the origins and implications of outsourcing. His newest books, New Ideas from Dead CEOs, and a novel, The Castro Gene, were released in May 2007.

Buchholz is a contributing editor at Worth magazine, where he writes the "Global Markets" column, and he has penned articles for the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Forbes, and Reader's Digest. He delivered a lecture at the White House library entitled "Clarity, Honesty and Modesty in Economics," and has been a keynote speaker before such groups as IBM and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.

Before joining Tiger in 1996, Buchholz was President of the G7 Group, Inc., an international consulting firm, whose clientele included many of the top securities firms, investment banks and money managers in New York, London and Tokyo. From 1989 to 1992 he served at the White House as a Director for Economic Policy. Buchholz won the Allyn Young Teaching Prize at Harvard and holds advanced degrees in economics and law from Cambridge and Harvard. He also holds several engineering and design patents and is a co-producer of the Broadway smash hit "Jersey Boys".
