Not Even the Best Can Last Forever

While I recognize that it is human nature to gravitate towards continued hot stocks this morning, given the initially shocking news flow of President Trump and the First Lady both testing positive for the CoronaVirus in addition to Congress unable to have a meeting of the minds (being generous with the use of "minds," there), in reality there...

Twitter Down, Stock Up, Because the Medium is the Message

You may have seen the film, The Social Network (2010), which tells the true life story of Mark Zuckerberg's rise to fame and fortune as Facebook came to be. In the film, there is a memorable scene where Zuck explains why the site simply can never stop functioning and why Facebook must never go down. Mark Zuckerberg: Do you realize that...

Somewhere in Limbo

Large cap tech leadership marginally reclaimed its previously-broken $271-$280 range late-last week. And QQQ (updated below on its hourly chart) followed-through back up to around the midpoint of that range early on this week. As it stands now, that is a major reason why the market, overall, feels as though it is sloshing around into the end...

Enough of the Nonsense

In an interview on CNBC this morning we saw Wharton Professor Jeremy Siegel declare that the stock market will surge in 2021 regardless of whether Trump or Biden wins. In and of itself, that is not really news to any of us who have followed him over the years, despite the catchy headline (Siegel is pretty much a perma-bull). More telling, to...

This Time Around, They Are Not Waiting for You

The Fed's monetary policies over the last twelve years or so (some would say twenty-two years, or more) have affected markets, the economy, even society and social issues in ways the overwhelming majority of people may never fully grasp. As an example, did you know that one of the silver linings from the Great Depression was that the wealth gap...
