When the biggest economies in the world are all experiencing a similar uptick in their […]

Sounds of the Inflation Trade in the Distance

January 23, 2017

I’m in my third week of addressing what I see as the green shoots of inflationary pressures that are ever present in our daily lives and now have shown up in a sequential pattern as the Fed and other bureaus report such facts. The most recent Beige Book reading had the Fed stating “price pressures […]

December 19, 2016

For five weeks the stock market has rallied substantially, fueled by a huge boost in investor sentiment that has rewarded most sectors save for the bond market and its equity bond equivalents.
