Keith Fitz-Gerald is a private investor, analyst, and market researcher/educator based in the United States, active in the financial markets for the past 42 years.
He began his career at Wilshire Associates in the late 1980’s and today is principal of Keith Fitz-Gerald Research, a private market research company exploring non-linear price prediction, stock selection, and investing education. Most recently, he’s founded One Bar Ahead®, a trading research and publication firm.
He is a popular speaker at financial conferences and a noted subject matter expert.
In his spare time, Keith can be found wrenching on vintage motorcycles, cars, and dang near “anything with a motor and wheels,” as he puts it.
Keith enjoys exploring the world with readers, subscribers, and viewers. It’s not atypical for him to ride to and from conferences and meetings, even if they’re happening halfway around the planet.
“The world is bigger than your garage, so it makes sense to get out and see it,” he’s fond of saying.
His take on life is one of unbridled optimism. It’s contagious and an edge that millions of savvy readers, subscribers, and viewers love!
A market veteran with more than 30 years of global experience, Keith is one of very few experts to correctly see both the dot.bomb crisis and the ongoing financial crisis coming ahead of time and one of even fewer to help hundreds of thousands of investors around the world successfully navigate them both.
He will fire up your audience to think about things in ways they’ve never considered. His lively, no-nonsense style resonates with investors, business leaders, university audiences and people of all ages interested in building a better, safer, more confident financial future. You won’t believe what he sees next!
Keith Fitz-Gerald has shared the stage with some of the most notable and inspirational financial speakers of our time including Jim Rogers, Steve Forbes, Barry Ritholtz, Jon Najarian, Frank Holmes, Bill Bonner, Peter Schiff, Frank Trotter, Dr. Mark Skousen, Alex Green and more.
His speaking engagements span the globe with presentations at investing conferences, corporations, governmental agencies, educational institutions as well as organizations like Mensa and the American Association of Individual Investors (AAII).
Attendees call him inspirational and a breath of fresh air. He regularly receives “best of” ratings that affirm his popularity as a global business communicator.

Talent FAQ's
Do speakers charge a flat fee or by the hour?
Speaker fees can vary depending on factors such as expertise, demand, and event specifics. While some speakers may charge a flat fee for their services, others may have hourly rates. It’s best to discuss fee structures directly with the speaker or their representative to understand the pricing model.
What is the typical duration of a keynote speech and what is included?
Keynote speeches typically range from 30 to 90 minutes, with the duration determined by the speaker’s expertise, the event’s agenda, and audience preferences. Keynote speeches often include a combination of inspirational stories, practical insights, and actionable advice tailored to the event’s theme or objectives.
Does the scale of the event and audience size affect a speaker’s fee?
The scale of the event and audience size can indeed impact a speaker’s fee. Larger events with a broader reach or higher attendance may command higher fees due to increased exposure and demand. Conversely, smaller events or niche audiences may offer opportunities for more flexible pricing arrangements.
Travel expenses and other costs
Travel expenses such as transportation, accommodation, and meals are typically negotiated separately from the speaker’s fee. These costs vary depending on the speaker’s location, travel distance, and event duration. It’s important to clarify travel arrangements and expenses during the booking process to avoid misunderstandings.
Deposits and securing a booking
Many speakers require a deposit to secure a booking, with the remaining balance due closer to the event date. Deposits are often non-refundable and serve as a commitment from both parties. It’s advisable to discuss deposit requirements and payment terms with the speaker or their representative when finalizing the booking.
Additional tips and takeaways
- Virtual speaking appearances are a cost-effective alternative to high speaking fees, often 10-50% cheaper than in-person rates.
- There is typically no difference in fee for a 15-minute speech versus a 60-minute speech.
- Some motivational speakers are open to discounting their fee if hired for more than one event by the same organization.
- When browsing speakers, consider their location to keep travel costs down.
- Personal connections to your organization or event location can increase your chances of securing a renowned speaker.
- Be upfront about your needs and expectations to ensure a successful partnership.
- Speaker bureaus like Speakers Inc help guide you through the booking process to negotiate the best deal with favorable terms.
