Who is Mason Sexton?

After graduating from Harvard Business School in 1972, Mason Sexton set off for a career in Wall Street that spanned over 40 years…

He was employee #188 at Morgan Stanley. And worked for such firms as Solomon Brothers, Mitchell Hutchins, and Warburg Paribas Becker.

In 1984, he formed Harmonic Research—a market timing service that covered stocks and bonds.

He received worldwide attention for his uncanny prediction of the 1987 stock market crash, which he warned about on at least 7 different occasions in advance.

He was named a “Top 10 Timer” by Timer Digest in 1987, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1992 1993, and 1994—when he made the cover.

In 2003, he merged Harmonic into investment bank Jessup and Lamont, the Rockefellers private investment bank.

Over the last two decades, he has provided consultation to a number of large technology firms, international banks, investment advisors, mutual funds, and hedge funds (including two of the top 10 performing hedge funds last year).

4. Aug 14, 1987: “What I think will happen here is that we’ll get an important top somewhere around August 24^th or 25^th… If I had to guess the final top, I’d say first or second week of October… that would precede a correction of 15 to 20% minimum.” (CNN)
5. Aug 20, 1987: “Sell all non-performing stocks now… the majority of stocks will be topping out in a significant way over the next few weeks… most people should be out of stocks by mid-October. I wouldn’t want to be long unless I was a professional trader” (NY Post Business)
