E Markets Are Anticipating A Rate Hike

How The Black Market Is Saving Two Countries From Their Governments
Ever since governments began banning and licensing different parts of the economy, the black market has made sure people still have access to the things they need. Unstable governments always turn on their own citizens using price controls, heavy taxes, and even the threat of imprisonment to prop up their failing systems. As conditions inevitably deteriorate, […]

Here’s How To Play An Increasingly Volatile Oil Market
If you needed a reminder that oil prices can be volatile and are hyper-sensitive to every single data point and/or headline that crosses the wires, you got all the proof you needed last week. And then you got some more evidence on Tuesday when, as we wrote earlier, oil whipsawed as API data clashed with Saudi […]
E Alimentation Couche-Tard Reports Earnings
The company reporting today was Alimentation Couche-Tard (ANCUF) which fell short with its Q3 results. It reports in US dollars because of its US operations are key.

Keeping It Real: Integrity In Financial Prognostications
This post has to do with something which may seem like an oxymoron: integrity in financial prognostications. What inspired me to address this topic? Oh, that’s easy: As you can see, back on February 22nd, Dennis “Commodity King” Gartman went on CNBC to declare that, at long last, for the first time in about five years, […]

Interestingly, today the share prices of precious metals mining […]
Estimating Future Stock Returns, December 2016 Update
What a difference a quarter makes! As I said one-quarter ago: Are you ready to earn 6%/year until 9/30/2026? The data from the Federal Reserve comes out with some delay. If I had it instantly at the close of the third quarter, I would have said 6.37% — but with the run-up in prices since […]
