Review
"This book is like Mal - who is a rider, a rocker and a rebel. He doesn't just think outside the box - he drags it behind his Harley on a cross-continent adventure and then runs over it a few times for good measure. The Bay and Wall Street guys are gonna hate it - Main Streeters should embrace it. One ton of fun!" BJ Del Conte Chase Producer, BNN - Business News Network Business Producer/Anchor - CP24-

Consumer – lower confidence is GOOD news!
Consumer confidence is often mistaken as a leading indicator. My experience over many years is that the measure is used at times to rationalize irrational bullishness – when the brain says sell and take some profits, but the urge to splurge is … Continue reading

Don’t Panic! It’s just 2010 all over again!
Over many years I’ve often been asked to meet with groups (accounting associations or investment advisors with auditoriums full of their clients) in order to help calm them during periods of malaise in financial markets. A tug of war is … Continue reading
