Energy Transfer Stores & Moves Gas & Oil Nationwide
This week I’m seeking a prestigious and long-term dividend-paying stock from the energy sector. That sector includes six industries all related to bringing oil and gas to market. They are: drilling, exploration and production (E&P), equipment and services, integrated, midstream, refining & marketing.(Those oily and gassy enterprises.) Today I’m reviewing another large-cap oil and gas […]
Ethereum Mining Vs. Bitcoin Mining: Which Is More Profitable?
There are some critical differences between Ethereum vs. Bitcoin mining, which originate from the fact that these two cryptocurrencies developed with very different purposes in mind. At first glance, it may be difficult to determine the variances between these cryptos, but dig a little deeper, and you discover a glaring contrast between them. Let’s take […]
Win-Win Situation For The USD Ahead Of The NFP – EUR/USD Is Weak
The EUR/USD is hugging the 1.1500 level, stabilizing after the recent wobbles. The US Non-Farm Payrolls report can boost the greenback. The pair is no longer suffering from oversold conditions, opening the door for falls. The EUR/USD stabilized around 1.1500 as tensions mount ahead of the US Non-Farm Payrolls. The event could prove a win-win situation for the […]
Art Of The Deal: Trump Administration Praises “Paradigm-Shifting” Model
U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer thinks we have a “Paradigm-Shifting” model. The notion is laughable. The Wall Street Journal reports Trump Aims to Model New Trade Deals on Revised Nafta. U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer called the new North American trade deal a “paradigm-shifting model” of American policy that sends a tough message to the rest […]
The 30-Year Has “Broken Out” – Jeff Gundlach Warns Stocks And Bonds Are Going Lower Together
Having broken above its multi-decade trendline, 30Y Yields are starting to levitate faster than even the equity markets can handle… Following this week’s bond-market rout, DoubleLine’s Jeff Gundlach noted that the 30 Year Treasury yield “has broken above its multi-year base” which “should lead to significantly higher yields for investors”. During a webcast last month, Gundlach said the effect […]
E Changing Stories
A good prosecutor aims to interrogate the witness with the goal of finding a hole in the story, by asking the same question in many different ways, until he gets a different story. This is what the market does daily, asking the same question, and looking for a different story. Children from an early age are […]
Market Talk – Thursday, Oct. 4
The Fed was blamed for stopping yesterday’s US rally in equities and has had a similar effect in Asia. Jerome Powell commented that they are a long way from neutral and that hit the long end of the Treasury curve. The ADP was probably enough to indicate economic strength, but then Jerome Powell lit the […]
Crypto Q&A
We regularly get questions from readers, as well as from viewers of our monthly webinars. Here are some recent ones. Question: “With crypto markets selling off recently, are you still bullish on blockchain?” Answer: The short answer is, Yes. But I offer that with the caveat that you should be wary of asking a barber […]
Higher Rates Will Hurt Stocks Far More Than You Think
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell thinks the economy is awesome. And he has no problem telling us so. What Powell will never discuss, however, is the “way-too-low-for-way-too-long” stimulus that the central bank engaged in to get here. In particular, the Fed has kept the neutral rate of interest far beneath the rate of inflation (CPI) for […]
EC The Hawk Not In Housing (Nor Capex)
Jay Powell is on the warpath, he thinks. Some aren’t so sure, though. At his last press conference, the one held on September 26 after the last “rate hike”, someone in the media actually asked him about the impact of rising interest rates. And not in a good way. His answer would apply to a […]
