Ep.54 - part 2 - Inappropriate Fear in the Market

We are seeing strong evidence of robust growth in the U.S. economy, but much of the news is about economic weakness. The reason is that bad news attracts more attention than good news, so the news media focuses on the bad news.

Ep.54 -part 1 - What Happened in the Market This Week? (1/31 – 2/4)

When we hear about the price of oil, we often relate it to the prices in the 1970s, however; once we factor in inflation and changes in the economy, the picture looks very different.

Ep.53 - part 3 - Target-Date-Funds

When the economic and market headlines are predominately negative, there tends to be a larger amount of money in cash positions, not invested in the market, suggesting higher market levels are coming. As economic and market news becomes more positive, more of that money is invested. Once the market news is predominately positive and optimistic about the future, much or most of that money has been invested and the likelihood of a major market decline rises.

Ep.53 - part 2 - Cryptocurrency vs. Digital Currency

So-called “cryptocurrencies” are, almost without exception, not currencies. Rather they are more like collectable, non-government issued coins with a fluctuating market value. They can be traded for specific goods or services in some cases, but do not normally qualify as money.

Ep.53 - part 1 - What Happened in the Market This Week? (1/24 – 1/28)

Long-term investing requires patience and the ability to see apparent losses appear in your portfolio. Presuming you have a well-diversified and well-balanced portfolio; time is on your side. Just as those who left a recent sports game just before the end missed an historic turnaround and victory, bailing out of a well-positioned portfolio in a down market historically has meant missing out on the gains that follow.

Ep. 52 - part 3 - How is the Stock Market Controlled Ethically?

Securities markets in the United States are regulated under the authority of the Securities Acts of 1933 and 1934, as amended. U.S. regulatory agencies such as the Securities and Exchange Commission, the New York Stock Exchange, NASDAQ, and FINRA were created by the Securities Act of 1933 in response to illicit acts leading up to the stock market crash of 1929. Those agencies continue to be the foundation of fair dealing in the U.S. securities markets.

Ep.52 - part 2 - Listener’s Question: Does the Fed Really Know What They Are Doing?

One of the prime missions of the Federal Reserve Board is to maintain the value of the dollar; adjusting the money supply to hold a dependable value. Did the Fed create the current surge in inflation? Given that inflation is at high levels for all major international currencies, probably not. Rather, the surge of inflation we are experiencing was more likely caused by the pandemic and the supply chain issues that our change in behavior created.

Prices measured in the U.S. by Consumer Price Index are up 7% from a year ago. It’s the highest since 1982. Significant parts of this inflation seem to come from the used cars and trucks market, which are up by 37.3%, and the fuel and oil market, which are up by 50%.

Ep.52 - part 1 - What Happened in the Market This Week? (1/10 – 1/14)

The U.S. Consumer Price Index is up 7% from one year ago, the highest single-year increase since 1982. However, the current high inflation is unlikely to persist as the prime drivers appear to be coming from used cars and trucks, up over 37%, and fuel prices, up by about 50%.
