E What Rough Beast?
One of the more athletic of the school’s security guards bounded into the cafeteria one January day, yelling “pow, pow,” hands holding a phantom firearm. The remedial class of reluctant readers we were overseeing as a substitute teacher scrambled back to our room as instructed by our principal, himself an overseer of the active shooter […]

EC TED, Fed, Credit
There’s a lot going on in this space at the moment, so I thought it would be good to weigh in on the topics of the TED spread, the Fed, and credit conditions/credit markets. Those with bearish inclinations have jumped and salivated at the prospects of spread widening, funding cost blowouts, and the lies of […]
Trump Slaps $50 Billion In Tariffs On China, Escalates Trade War
Ok, so here it is. As widely reported, the U.S. is set to levy some $50 billion in tariffs on Chinese imports in an effort to “offset” the theft of IP. Trump’s going to sign the tariffs memo at 12:30. The tariffs will be published within two weeks and they’ll be an open 30-day public comment period prior […]
