Why The M2 Slowdown Doesn’t Blunt My Inflation Concern
We are now all good and focused on the fact that inflation is headed higher. As I’ve pointed out before, part of this is an illusion of motion caused by base effects: not just cell phones, but various other effects that caused measured inflation in the US to appear lower than the underlying trend because […]

Rightsizing Your Trading
Investors can easily lose sleep over a position that goes the wrong way. Maybe the Dow Average cratered by 700 points, Gold was down $50, the Euro was spiking 2 cents, or oil was making one of its periodic $2 moves. What’s the answer? Cut your position in half. If your position is so large […]
