Trevor Oblouk

I'm a market analyst and trend forecaster with more than two decades of experience helping investors make sense of volatile markets. My career began in equity analysis at Merrill Lynch, grew through portfolio management at Vanguard, and led me to found Oblouk Capital Strategies in 2011. I break down market trends, volatility, and economic cycles so investors can make confident, informed decisions. Outside of work, you'll find me with a strong cup of coffee and a screen full of charts.
