You Cannot Anime Your Way to Prosperity

A diving Japanese Yen currency in April began to worry the developed economy central banks and governments to the point where we saw a clear Japanese intervention into their own currency.  The level which seemed to cause the most alarm was $160 on the Dollar/Yen cross, seen on the monthly chart, below. Given that the Yen is the denominator in...

Chasing the Mystery

Much debate is currently swirling about whether we are, in fact, seeing another wave higher of inflation or, instead, inflation is either flat-lining or even receding. There seem to be intelligent, well-studied folks on both sides of that debate. Housing and rents figure to be the tiebreaker. And as we know, real estate can be inherently local...

NVIDIA: Noise or Nonstop Momentum?

Even with the sharp META selloff, semiconductors are one of the clear morning winners as Zuck and his team emphasized on the conference calls that he will be spending money on AI.
