Rise And Fall Of The ‘Zombies’
One of the great ironies of QE is that while the post-crisis monetary policy regime was designed and implemented to reflate the global economy, there are certain places where these policies are actually deflationary. And when you think about it, it’s common sense. If you artificially suppress borrowing costs and distort the supply/demand dynamics in the […]

As the S&P 500 continues to churn around below its all-time highs from January, we are beginning to see short-term breadth readings start to weaken.
