The Scene of Many a Controversy
If you know your Wall Street history then you know that there have been many controversies over time with respect to various speculators attempting to "corner the market" in the precious metal with industrial utility, otherwise known as silver.

Jerome, How Could You?
Fed Chair Jerome "Jay" Powell warned of a sustained, deep recession this morning, and explicitly said, "Almost 40% of those in households making less than $40,000 a year lost a job in March." This sort of dour outlook from the Fed Chair seems at odds with the manner in which The Fed has tried to whisper sweet nothings and offer romantic...

One of the most ubiquitous Wall Street axioms, for example, is "Sell...

Bread and Circuses...and Biotech
“Give them bread and circuses and they will never revolt.” — Ancient Roman poet, Juvenal The various entertainment in, say, the Roman Colosseum, was seen as the "bread and circuses" to keep the population of Rome rather happy and docile, staving off revolt during tough times.

Pricing in the Unpriceable
If we had had social media back in 1929-1932, it would have been fascinating to see how the post-October 1929 crash price action and policy decisions would have been met. Not long after the crash, history seems to overlook that both The Fed and President Herbert Hoover took considerable action to try to stem the tide of unemployment as well as...

Saturday Night at Market Chess Cinemas
Happy Mother's Day weekend. In light of the special day tomorrow, here is a relevant and worthwhile film. As you might imagine, I am leaning towards the classic cinema of Hollywood yesteryear, with a heavy dose of film noir to keep things interesting.

The New Era of Retail
By now, we are well aware that Amazon is, in many respects, king of the castle in terms of new-world retail purchases and their entire ecosystem. But there is always COST and WMT, with names like BJ not far behind. Grocers like IMKTA KR SFM WMK are coming into their own, too.
