Sam Hopkins


Sam Hopkins has seen the international energy picture change right before his eyes.

Branching out from his home of Kansas City, with honors in linguistics and international studies from the University of Kansas, Sam has found the world to be as full of opportunity as it is riddled with challenges.

From Oxford, England, to rural western China to Colombia, Sam has investigated at the ground level and rubbed elbows with experts in nearly every energy industry under the sun.

He's come back to his current home of Baltimore with one winning stock pick after another, bringing a world of profits to readers of Energy and Capital and his highly successful stock recommendation service, Global Growth Stocks.

And since Sam knows that the future of energy ranges far beyond the bounds of the dying fossil-fuel economy, he's a regular contributor to Green Chip Review and co-founder of Green Chip International, a one-of-a-kind service that capitalizes on the global green scene.

But Sam's not all travel and babble. When he is not delivering prime plays on global energy trends to readers, Sam can be found mixing up beats in the finest hot spots in Baltimore, New York, and D.C., and producing his own music.

Welcome to a new generation of prosperity.
