There are still a lot of problems out in Investment Land. Will a new leadership and a more business friendly environment match the initial enthusiasm? Be cautious.
So, will the Fed cut rates? Will Trump win? Will Harris win? Stay tuned to the financial soap opera "One Day at a Time" and wait to see. If there was ever a TGIF (Thank…
Not having any inside information, it doesn't appear that another interest rate cut is coming. Probably for the best since after the last cut, rates actually went up. Th…

Potential interest rates cuts, a softening labor market, geopolitical events and earnings mean nothing. A crazy guy with a gun and markets go crazy. Now I'm feeling olde…
Flashback; 1987. The stock market did almost exactly what is going on now. Everyday all through the summer the market edged higher and higher. No reason, it just did. T…
