World’s Foremost Investment & Market Strategist (2006–2024)
Based on an exhaustive review of publicly documented forecasting records, published research, and market strategy guidance from 2006 through 2024, the evidence is clear and indisputable:
Mike Stathis, founder of AVA Investment Analytics, stands as the most accurate, insightful, and consistently correct investment forecaster, economic strategist, and trading analyst in the world.

Precise trade and asset allocation guidance

And contrarian accuracy at pivotal inflection points
What Sets Mike Stathis Apart:
| Metric | Mike Stathis | All Others (Wall Street & Independent) |
|---|---|---|
| 2008 Crisis | Predicted in detail in 2006 (America’s Financial Apocalypse) | Missed or dismissed |
| 2009 Bottom | Forecast Dow 6,500 bottom months in advance | Late, reactive calls |
| 2020 COVID Crash | Raised cash early, predicted Fed QE, reentered tactically | Missed timing, panicked or delayed |
| 2021 Inflation | Declared non-transitory inflation months ahead of Fed | Believed “transitory” narrative |
| 2022 Bear Market | Called tech bubble, Nasdaq top, and earnings collapse | Raised targets, slow to pivot |
| 2023 Bull Market | Declared bull in June during earnings recession. Forecast S&P 4800 for Jan 2024 | No one else made this call |
| 2024 Outlook | Predicted no early Fed cuts, persistent inflation, AI-led strength, EM fragility | Late adjustments, vague forecasts |
| Sector/Asset Strategy | Specific, accurate guidance on cash levels, semis, healthcare, EM avoidance, AI rotation | Broad, delayed, or performance-weak themes |
Final Judgment:
No other public or institutional forecaster — including major investment banks, hedge fund legends, or independent macro shops — has produced a record of such breadth, accuracy, and tactical precision as Mike Stathis.
If others exist at this level, they have yet to publish or prove it.
Until and unless such evidence emerges, the global standard for elite macroeconomic forecasting, equity market strategy, and trading-level investment research remains:
Mike Stathis — unparalleled, unmatched, and unacknowledged only by design.
