Negative Overnight Rates Signal More Global Stimulus On the Way
A little over a week ago, European Central Bank (ECB) President Mario Draghi made headlines by reiterating his organization’s commitment to reinvigorating the euro zone by whatever means necessary. He said euro-zone rates would “remain at present or lower levels for an extended period” and there would be “no limits” on action to reflate the […]
Putting Together a Plan that’s Simple to Understand
We need to face the many complexities of a market beset by central government financial engineering, crashing commodity prices, a pending wave of junk bond defaults, slowing growth in China and a recession in Brazil and other emerging markets. We also need to weigh the risks of the visceral politics of a presidential election year […]
Take Shelter from the Market Storm
Further downside selling pressure swept global markets lower last week, with the breakdown led by the Shanghai Index slipping below 3,000 and closing down another 3.5% to finish trading at 2,900 on Friday, Jan. 15. The other shoe to drop was WTI crude, falling below $30 per barrel and testing the low $29/bbl. level. There […]
Building a REIT Portfolio Brick by Brick
The worst week in history for the stock market has left the portfolios of millions of investors severely wounded and needing triage in the form of a repositioning of asset weighting. As the global market is more of an investing minefield right now than at any time in the past seven years, the safe haven […]
The Fed Might Just Be One and Done
Even though the past week’s economic calendar was light, the few data points released showed that despite a healthier consumer, the economic recovery remains uneven.

Putting the Junk Bond Credit Crunch into Perspective
The year in investing for 2015 will best be remembered by the collapse in the commodities markets and the widespread impact it had on developed world markets, emerging markets and the future of growth in China, as well as the boon to the American consumer, but mostly the demise of the junk bond market and […]
Market Momentum a Slave to Oil
Based on the elevated level of volatility, there is a very high correlation between the direction of the major averages and that of oil prices. Only on a couple trading days of the past month has the market gained when oil prices have fallen. It’s counterintuitive that cheap energy prices would be bad for stock […]
An Alternative Way for Investors to Generate Yield
Very little has changed from my early monthly outlook. Two weeks into December, we are entering a full-blown media circus highlighted by an ill-timed Paris summit on climate change, a terrorist attack on San Bernardino, California, now linked to ISIS, and a wild debate about the wherewithal of Donald Trump’s expanding lead in the GOP […]
When Reputation Far Precedes Reality
European Central Bank (ECB) President Mario Draghi offered some bold public statements in October following a string of soft economic data points that coincided with the 40% sell-off in China’s CSI 300 Index. Publicly stating he and his fellow ECB members “would do whatever it takes” earned him the catchy titles of “Super Mario” and […]
Selling The Rumor, Buying The News
Heading into the next Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting slated for Dec. 15-16, investor consensus is building in favor of seeing the Fed raise the Fed Funds Rate by 25 basis points, the first increase in six years. While some pundits argue that this is the beginning of a new interest rate cycle, several […]
