Are Market Bubbles a Function Of Psychology?
2024-03-25
There are three components of a “market bubble.” The first two, price and valuation, often get dismissed or rationalized during the inflation phase. That rationalization is due to investor psychology and the “Fear Of Missing Out (F.O.M.O.)
Stop the re-makes of ’80’s movies (Roadhouse)! Markets are going into 5th straight month of gains, remaining over-bought and trading in a very narrowly-defined trend channel. Money going into cryptocurrency (Memecoin) is indicative of late-cycle market speculative mood. The Coffee Maker saga continues; Market Bubble Psychology: What defines a market bubble. No two market bubbles are a like (w charts). The Fed’s Dot Plots are worthless. How will the latest CR be funded? (More debt.) The mechanics of Social Security: more retirees earlier than
Should I Delay Social Security?

The Fed is in no rush to lower rates, based on the latest economic data; we’ve gone from transitory to permatory inflation; rents are not going to fall, but rates are not going to go up. Fed Gov. Bostick: Rates are not going down until later, based on Labor data. Candid Coffee preview: The problem with Financial Infidelity; does it pay to delay taking Social Security? (It depends…) What’s the best claiming strategy? Rich & Danny critique AI-generated Candy Hearts; why RMD’s are going to be trickier; the benefits of delay; impact of Roth conversions.

Why the 2020’s Aren’t the 1970’s
2024-02-08
(2/8/24) Fair warning, fellas: Valentine’s Day is one week away. What do all the numbers and charts really mean about the economy? Financial Obligation Ratio’s look great for the upper 10%, but for the rest of the population, they’re pretty dire. The markets don’t care. Are we over-paying for equities? Market internals are very different from the headline data. The S&P almost hit 5,000, thanks to the EFT draft effect. Will "good" economic data thwart the Fed’s rate policy? Bonds feed on inflation and where the market thinks inflation is going to be. Are we looking for a reprisal of 1970’s style inflation? (Why now is not then.) Money Supply affects inflation, and inflation begets inflation. The Fed "gets it," but the government does not.

Can Markets Defy Bearish Expectations?
2024-01-09
(1/9/24) Wall Street begins a new round of quarterly earnings, looking at the results of Q4; estimates for 2024 are allready falling. What are you really paying for earnings? Why we have to be in ETF’s, even though we don’t like them. There is evidence of an uptick in inflation this year. Markets miss achieving January Trifecta by .13%, despite tax gain selling pressure. Will January be similarly weak? We polled our viewers/listeners for their takes on what 2024 will hold: Polling the People includes commentary on S&P 500 Seasonality and bullish sentiment, and where the markets may end in 2024.
