Stratfor is a geopolitical intelligence and advisory firm that examines world affairs by tapping into a worldwide network of contacts and mining vast amounts of open-source information.

Topics examined include economics/finance, energy, military, politics, and terrorism/security. The site is browsable by broad subjects (such as analysis, topics, regions, forecasts, products and services) and is searchable as well; it also includes a media center with maps and videos.
