Alan Abelson
American journalist (1925–2013)
Alan Abelson (October 12, 1925 – May 9, 2013) was a veteran financial journalist, and longtime writer of the influential Up and Down Wall Street column in Barron's Magazine.[citation needed]
Career
He was editor of Barron's from 1981 until 1992.[1] Abelson's columns at Barron's often took a skeptical look at the investment favorites and fads of the day, and sometimes spawned controversy and even lawsuits.[2] While working for Barron's, he was responsible for editing the Investment News & Views section, writing corporate and industry features and the influential "Up and Down Wall Street" column.
From July 1982 to October 1990, Abelson frequently appeared on NBC-TV's News at Sunrise as a business commentator.[3] In 1999, less than a year before the crash of the dot-com bubble, he warned, "the market is grossly overvalued, more so, indeed, than it was in 1987 before the crash."[
