Alan Kohler Biography

Alan Kohler is one of the most popular and richest Journalist who was born on April 26, 1952 in Melbourne, Melbourne, Australia. Alan Robert Kohler AM (born 26 April 1952) is an Australian financial journalist and newspaper editor. He is currently writing for his own online financial publication, The Constant Investor.

In his last weekend briefing of 2011, Kohler told his Eureka Report subscribers that he was significantly reducing his ‘already reduced exposure to equities, possibly to zero’ because of the high risk of ‘another major panic sell-off on the market’. At the same time Morgan Stanley’s equity strategist predicted a precise 7.2% fall in the US market at the start of

2012. While nothing particularly good happened in 2012, most of the bad stuff had already happened and been priced in, so markets went up.

In July 2016, following the sale of Eureka Report, Kohler started The Constant Investor – a new subscription model for investors and finance related clients which described itself as “Unbiased, Independent, Daily Insights For The Financially Curious”. One of the focuses of The Constant Investor was to highlight investable companies outside the ASX200 and provide rarely available background information through interviews with their CEOs. This brought companies to the attention of investors, while their share price still had room to grow.

With a holistic view of the financial world, Kohler’s work with The Constant Investor was picked up by non-financial readers. In August 2017 The Age’s AFL section quoted Kohler’s interview with outgoing Wesfarmers CEO, Richard Goyder, saying he “hates” pokies, and will seek to use his personal authority to wean clubs off them.

Kohler was chief executive and a major shareholder of Australian Independent Business Media Pty Ltd, which published the online investment newsletter Eureka Report and the free, 24-hour business news and commentary website Business Spectator since 2007. AIBM was sold for $30m in 2012 to News Corp; Kohler remained as editor-in-chief. The sale to News Corp did create some interesting media. It has been rumoured that Eureka Report now has less subscribers than it did when it was owned by AIBM. News Corp then sold Eureka Report to Australasian Wealth Investments, now called InvestSMART Group Limited, in March 2016.
