The Simple Pleasures We All Take for Granted

With headlines swirling about a China energy crunch on top of the European one already afoot, we may very well be headed towards an interesting winter in terms of oil and gas prices. Here in America, with government benefits from the pandemic being wound down in many states and a generally feeling in the air that the worst of the pandemic may...

Four End of Year Buyout Targets

With the fourth quarter of 2021 suddenly a little over a week away, here are four stocks which I believe have a good chance of getting bought out if we see a wave of M&A into the holidays. I have been expecting M&A for a while now, but like most things in this bull run it seems to march to its own drummer. Be that as it may, the following four...

Featuring iconic brands such as Twinkies, Ding Dongs, and HoHos, among many, many, others, it may not be a particularly...

Boeing Has Achieved Maximum Flying Altitude

Several names which became synonymous with the epic bull run off the March 2020 lows are now displaying notable signs of fatigue, with little in the way of acknowledgment from market players and pundits alike.

No One is Coming to Save You

China may very well wind up bailing out Evergrande in some way, shape, or form (the offshore players could get the wrong end of the stick, so to speak, for example), but it may be from much lower price levels from here in markets. I am fully aware that The Fed since, basically, the Greenspan era has spawned a generation of market players who...

In the Evergrande Scheme of Things

With tons of off-the-cuff Evergrande analysis out there for you to enjoy right about now, the last thing you need from me is another China macro tourist opinion. On that note, I find it fascinating that so few people are even mentioning (even if to then quickly dismiss) the potentially massive head and shoulders top on the small cap-dominated...
