How To Access Small-Cap Value
Over a long period of time, many studies have come to a similar conclusion: Small-cap stocks, screened in some manner for reasonable valuation, have been very strong performers. What Does Small-Cap Value Mean? “Value” is a term that is used in different ways in the financial industry. First of all, how do you define “value”? Low price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio? […]
Rogers Communications Inc. Reports A Sharp Rise In Q1 Profit And Higher Revenue
Rogers Communications Inc. (NYSE:RCI) on Tuesday reported a sharp rise in first-quarter profit and higher revenue as it boasted a surprisingly large jump in new wireless customers.

Act Accordingly
The textbook says that whenever the central bank raises its policy rate that means tightening. Actual experience over more than just this last lost decade demonstrates that at the very least it is much more complicated than that. There is far more evidence of monetary policy being nothing more than a response, as that reverse condition can […]

Newest Macro Data Is W-E-A-K!

Automatic Data Processing (ADP) – a global leader in payroll processing – predicted 263,000. (This is a huge egg on their face. And it should tell […]
Is It Just Me, Or Was That A Nightmare?
You know, I don’t do a lot of “that’s a wrap” or “the day that was” posts. For one thing 4:30 is beach time (and usually just the right beach weather) and for another, the last thing I want to do after staring at 3 monitors for damn near 12 hours is make a bunch […]
Goldman Asks: Are Markets Rationally, Or Irrationally, Exuberant?
Goldman Sachs’ Charlie Himmelberg and Marty Young find evidence that “animal spirits” are driving sentiment along party lines… and that may be a concern… Sentiment indicators have rallied hard since the election of Donald Trump. The Conference Board’s Consumer Confidence Index, for example, has risen to its highest level since December 2000 (+24.8 points from October). The […]
Market Talk – Tuesday, April 18
We saw a mixed session in Japan today with the Nikkei bouncing from yesterdays lows eventually closing up +0.35% whilst the currency rejected the 107 handle last trading mid 108 level. Shanghai has lost -0.8% also watching the Hang Seng give up 1.4%. It should be no surprise that markets are feeling jittery given current […]
