With Rollback, Dodd-Frank Is Now Officially A Dud
I often remind investors to look past the negative and find the positive. Last week provided no shortage of big splashy headline stories, from yet another high-profile personnel shakeup at the White House to a nail-biter special election in Pennsylvania’s 18th Congressional District, from Russia’s alleged nerve agent attack on a former double-agent spy to […]
Of GAIL Stake Buyout, Sandhar Technologies IPO, And Top Cues In Focus Today
Share markets in India closed on a negative note yesterday. Losses were seen across most sectors with stocks in the realty sector and stocks in the metal sector leading the losses. At the closing bell yesterday, the BSE Sensex stood lower by 253 points (down 0.8%) and the NSE Nifty closed down by 100 points […]
Cold To Linger Into April
Natural gas traders returned to the weekend with modestly colder forecasts than we ended last week with, though those forecasts were clearly dismissed as prices headed lower through the day Monday. It was not just the April contract but rather the entire strip that sold off, with later contracts recovering weakly into the settle (something […]
EC The Most Important Chart In Macroeconomics
We’ve discussed the meaning of the 10-year bond yield at length in a couple articles. For almost this entire bull market, the point that low yields are causing stocks to go up has been repeated endlessly. That call didn’t matter much when yields were going down because it simply implied investors should ride the wave. […]
Why Steven Cohen Increased His US Concrete Stake By 64%
A schedule 13G filing with the SEC on Friday evening revealed that Steven Cohen increased his stake in US Concrete Inc (Nasdaq: USCR) by $20.7 million. With the stock down -16.4% in the last month, it’s worth taking a closer look at the company. Point72 Adds To Its US Concrete Stake On February 14th, Steven Cohen’s firm Point72 Asset Management filed […]
Was January A More Complete Dollar Inflection?
Friday, January 26, stocks hit their last record highs. Buoyed by supposedly strong earnings along with near euphoria about tax reform anecdotes, all three major US indices were sitting at their respective tops after another big week. Everything was apparently going in the right direction: All the three key U.S. indexes closed at record levels on […]
Trump Set To Unleash $60bn China Tariffs On Friday
Having rejected a plan for imposing $30 billion in tariffs on Chinese imports last week, saying they weren’t big enough; President Trump is reportedly planning to unveil by Friday, a package of $60 billion in annual tariffs against China. Trump is following through on a long-time threat that he says will punish China for intellectual property infringement and […]

Oh No! We Are Running Out Of People
Barring a recession, it appears the US is running out of people. We aren’t. The chart is misleading. The Wall Street Journal asks Is America Running Out of Unemployed People to Fill Jobs? For every job opening in America, there’s now barely more than one unemployed person available to take it. In mid-2015, there were 2.3 […]
Ten-Year T-Yield Still Trapped In L/T Channel – TLT As Trading Vehicle N/T
Once again, 10-year Treasury yields failed at the top end of a long-term channel, although can push higher near term, creating a trading opportunity in TLT. Close, but no cigar! The 10-year rate came very close to breaking out of the three-decade-old descending channel it is in. Yields rose to 2.94 percent on February 21. […]
