What a week! Inflation fell more than expected. The elections were closer than projected. China took steps towards opening back up. And a Russian retreat in Ukraine sparked hope of a coming truce. All served to trigger one of the biggest 1-day rallies in the history of the stock market. While in parallel, FTX, the 2nd largest crypto exchange imploded, creating massive shock waves that are still pl...

A year ago when today's expert appeared on this channel, he warned of an approaching bear market & economic deceleration. Specifically, he predicted these would be caused by the simultaneous shutoff of the $trilions of government stimulus issued in the year following the global pandemic -- the largest monetary & fiscal cliffs in history. Fast forward to today & well, his outlook was right on the m...

"After mind-boggling ridiculous spikes, home prices in most markets are dropping. And in some markets, they’re plunging at the fastest pace on record And in some cases, they’re going down faster than they’d spiked on the way up. And it’s just the beginning." So says analyst Wolf Richter in his recent post "The Housing Bubble Has Popped, and the Fed Can Let it Rip" Just how bad may things get from...

The global economy is stumbling. And not just for financial reasons like the increasing cost of debt. Supply chains remain compromised. We are still having material challenges in both producing and distributing real physical goods across oceans and continents. This is such a serious threat to global prosperity that best-selling author James Rickards has made it the focus of his new book: SOLD OUT!...

The world is understandably panicked about inflation right now. Prices are increasing by double-digit percentages across much of the world.

In the wake of the 2008 Global Financial Crisis, central banks drove interest rates down to unprecedented lows and kept them there for the better part of a decade. The world economy then became addicted, some would say dependent, upon a zero-cost capital world. But now inflation is forcing interest rates to rise sharply around the globe, at the fastest pace on record. This sea change in rates is d...

I conducted an interview on Twitter Spaces the other day about the unfolding catastrophe happening with AirBnb properties across the US.  I found the discussion both important & fascinating and really enjoyed the analyst I had it with, a new voice to the financial media space that I think you’ll value getting introduced to. So I’m releasing the interview in its entirety here for you.  A heads up,...

Right now, I-bonds are offering an extremely attractive risk free return, especially given the current high rate of inflation – it’s possible we may never see one this generous again. How generous? If you buy an I-bond today, you’ll lock in a guaranteed annualized rate of return of 9.62% on your money for the next 6 months.  That’s more than 2x the return that standard T-bills are currently paying...

As many recent experts on this channel have lamented, it's hard to be an investor in today's market when the price action of securities is driven far more by Fed policy decisions than underlying company fundamentals. As a result, the global investor community is reduced to speculating on what Jerome Powell and the 11 other voting members of the FOMC -- the Federal Open Market Committee -- decide t...
