Wealth Management Firm, Oak Brook, Illinois

Asbury Research is the single best market research provider that I have had in the past 20 years of my investing and trading experience.  Their data driven approach to markets has given me more insight and knowledge to make better, more accurate decisions.  It’s an amazing service and well worth the investment!”

Private Investor, Atlanta

“I met John Kosar and Asbury when he spoke at a NAAIM (National Association of Active Investment Managers) conference a few years ago.  I can’t begin to tell you what a game changer his research has made in my models and my practice.  If you want concise, technically driven, actionable research – spend the money and hire John and crew for your team like I did.

Principle, Registered Investment Advisor, Sioux Falls, SD

I want to thank you for keeping my investment to a minimum (during the current correction), saving me money.  I would have been much higher percentage invested if it hadn’t been for your Correction Protection Model, so thanks.  I know we investors get impatient, but now I know you will tell us when the time is right to get back into the market.”

Meet John Kosar CMT,
Chief Market Strategist

John has 40 years of experience in studying, analyzing, and forecasting global financial markets. He began his career in 1980 on the trading floor of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange and spent the next 17 years there, acquiring a practical, real world education on how the US financial markets work from the inside out.  This experience, early in his career, became the foundation for his unique analytical approach and understanding of what really drives financial asset prices.  John’s proprietary blend of technical and quantitative inputs, combined with Asbury Research’s own quantitative models, are designed to be more forward-looking, agile, and actionable than the typical Wall Street approach.

John is a contributor to Forbes and StockCharts.com and is frequently quoted by US and global financial news organizations including The Wall Street Journal, MarketWatch.com, Barron’s, Yahoo! Finance, and Reuters.  John also regularly appears on financial television including CNBC, Fox Business, and Bloomberg and is a frequent speaker at financial events across the country presented by organizations including the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) Society, the National Association of Active Investment Managers (NAAIM), the CMT (Chartered Market Technician) Association, and the American Association of Individual Investors (AAII).

John has been consistently recognized as a top U.S. financial market analyst and was awarded the Chartered Market Technician (CMT) designation in 1999.  He served as Vice President of the CMT Association from 2004 to 2006 and was a member of its Board of Directors from 2002-2006.  John has previously been a trader, analyst, and strategist for a number of top firms including Shearson American Express, NatWest Markets, Greenwich Capital Markets, and Deutsche Bank.


From John Kosar, CMT

We launched Asbury Research in January 2005 to provide data-driven independent investment research and actionable trading strategies to professional money managers.  In 2015, we responded to many years of requests with a research product specifically designed for individual investors.

Asbury Research believes the market itself is the ultimate clearinghouse for all the collective knowledge and wisdom of its participants, people and businesses that have real money at stake, and thus is the most comprehensive, objective, and dynamic evaluator of all publicly known and unknown market factors that can affect your portfolio

We analyze what the market “thinks” via a comprehensive arsenal of quantitative and technical metrics, and our own proprietary models, which are collectively more intuitive and forward-looking than the typical Wall Street approach.  These metrics and models help us keep our clients one step ahead of the market’s next move.

We don’t make money by selling or promoting any particular investment offering or fund.  We get paid solely on our ability to correctly analyze current market conditions, and then identifying the best investment strategies to take advantage of them. 

We welcome the opportunity to help you become a more well-informed and successful investor.
