Top Global Investment Experts

Up-Close-and-Personal with Steve Forbes
The real estate and financial sector meltdowns, followed by the massive government bailout, have combined to create a new era in the financial landscape of our country. Steve Forbes, chairman, CEO, and editor-in-chief, Forbes, will assess how well the forces of free enterprise are battling the pro-tax, pro-spending, pro-regulation, pro-socialized medicine armies rampaging in Washington and around the country. What impact will this epic struggle have on stocks and bonds? This session will include continental breakfast, Q&A session, and a photo opportunity with Mr. Forbes.

MARKET PERSPECTIVES
Rich Karlgaard is publisher of Forbes, one of the world’s most popular business and financial magazines, read by 4.5 million people per issue. He writes a column about technology, entrepreneurship, regional and economical development, and the future of business and work called “Digital Rules.“ In this session, he will lay out the case for how the galloping rates of creative destruction and business volatility, observed before the 2008-2009 crash, will continue in tough times and good. Outdated business models are being consigned to history’s dustbin faster than ever. New winners will emerge.

ECONOMIC OUTLOOK
Joe Battipaglia, market strategist-Private Client Group, Stifel Nicolaus, will share just how troubled times are in this wide-ranging discussion of the US economy and financial markets. Can government controlled banks and auto companies actually contribute to the private sector while the rules for how capitalism is to operate are being changed through legislation, regulation, and "new paradigms"?
