E Markets: Muted
The muted reaction of markets to the expected Trump escalation of trade measures on China reflects less calm and more hope that negotiations follow and lead to a deal. The tiered roll-out of new US tariffs on Chinese goods confirms the skirmishes leading to a larger battle but the 10% rate is lower and any 25% […]

That cyclicals sector includes twenty-eight industries ranging from Advertising Agencies to Apparel, Autos, Broadcasting, Department Stores, Gambling, Leisure, Lodging, Packaging, Personal Services, Shoes, Restaurants, Rubber, Plastics, Textiles, and all such consumer aimed enterprises. Today I’m reviewing a small-cap specialty retail […]
WTI Crude Oil And Natural Gas Forecast – Tuesday, Sept. 18
WTI Crude Oil The WTI Crude Oil market went back and forth during the trading session on Monday, essentially going unchanged by the time it closed. This shows a very confused market, and I think that will continue to be the case as global trade is being threatened by tariffs, and most importantly: uncertainty. Because […]

Positive Signs
It’s occurred to me that I may have been projecting a bit of pessimism in my last few updates. Images from storms like Florence and Mangkhut can give us the impression that the world is ending. However, looking at the news today there’s a lot to be positive about. Turkey and Russia have decided not to launch a […]
Gold Bulls Have To Wait
Last week was full of interesting economic data. I analyze them to show that gold bulls have to be patient. The data suggest that the US economy remains healthy. So far. Inflationary Pressure Eases On August the 24th, 2018, we published Gold News Monitor in which we wondered whether inflation has peaked. Now, we know […]
The Only People Who Don’t (Want To) See It
If everything was going to plan, non-standard monetary policy at the zero lower bound (QE) would have raised inflation expectations increasing the level of aggregate demand as businesses and consumers ramped up their activities in anticipation of higher costs. The more this “overheating” goes on, the more forceful it becomes. Eventually, by virtue of the […]
Oil & Gas Production Pipeline MLP Outlook: Prospects Bright
Master limited partnerships (or MLPs) typically hold assets related to oil and natural gas pipelines and storage facilities. Unlike companies, MLPs don’t face taxes at corporate levels. Only unitholders have to bear the tax liability once they get their distributions. The midstream infrastructure assets of MLPs are booked by shippers for long-term transportation and storage […]
