Global Markets Bucking Bearish Data – Time to Buy?
The latest read on the first-quarter gross domestic product (GDP) of 3.2% for the U.S. economy has provided another empirical piece of evidence that the bull market’s prosperity has legs. The notion of a 2019 recession has faded quickly, even in light of some high-profile earnings misses from the likes of Intel Corp. (INTC), 3M […]
Double-Top or Higher-Highs for the S&P 500

Energy MLPs Ready to Rally
The narrative of a second-half 2019 recovery for the global economy is starting to gain wider-spreading credibility as optimism grows about closure to a U.S.-China trade deal and avoiding a hard-Brexit.

Big Profits Being Banked on Cyber Warfare
It seems every day we read or hear about some major invasion of privacy, digital identity theft or illegal access to financial accounts. The business of ransomware on the dark web is huge, into the billions of dollars globally and getting bigger by the day. It’s a full-time job for governments, militaries and corporations to protect their […]
Socialist Democracies Crumbling Across the Pond
Back in mid-December, European Central Bank (ECB) President Mario Draghi stated the central bank he leads would discontinue the almost $3 trillion quantitative easing, bond-buying program in January 2019.
