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-

Why I sold half of everything!
I realize that I haven’t published in a very long time (although I’ve done a few articles in the recent past on seekingalpha.com). There hasn’t really been much to talk about. Global government stimulus has heretofore put a floor on … Continue reading
Damn the Short Sellers; and more…
Observers of the rocketing price moves of now familiar names, are describing the phenomena as ‘insane’ but it was bound to happen eventually. I’m just happy I’ve lived long enough to see some of these crooks get their comeuppance. Is … Continue reading

Market Tanks – Great news for some.
I haven’t published for some time now. Why bother? The economy was tanking, and the market was rallying. Made no sense to someone who’s been managing money for 30+ years, so better to say nothing. However today’s headlines are providing … Continue reading

The roller-coaster stock market.
The market continues to behave like a roller-coaster. But will this ride ever end? In the past, the ups and downs of stock prices have always mirrored the ups and downs in earnings, but this relationship seems to have broken … Continue reading

Decrease in Consumer Spending Alarm Goes Off.
I’ve hinted many times over the years that the most robust leading indicator is the ISM (Institute for Supply Management) manufacturing index. Last Friday, the report was – not surprisingly – dismal. May is likely to be even worse. We’re … Continue reading

Why Warren Buffett’s Moves are Bewildering.
Everyone is confused – He bought a bunch of airlines at their peak, and sold them all (was the normally undaunted investor suddenly in a panic?) at the bottom. “Fear is the most contagious disease you can imagine…” said Buffett … Continue reading

Consumer Sentiment – down but still not down enough.

Why the S&P 500 should fall another 10% to 20%.
The risk of being so right in one’s projections (I called this meltdown months ago) is you begin to second guess yourself – maybe now I should turn bullish? The recent rally (which I covered in my “It’s a Trap” … Continue reading

Private Equity/Debt Cockroaches emerging.
I published here (in late January) and on SeekingAlpha.com a warning that the surge in private equity (with with emphasis on “private” or illiquid) in the past decade would reek havoc for institutional and individual investors alike. We’re beginning to … Continue reading

How long before this bear market hibernates again?
Most of what I read suggests we’re experiencing a Bear Market rally, and that it will be short-lived. A very respected strategist friend of mind put it this way: It remains our view that stock markets will return to test … Continue reading
