The Russell 2000 small cap index has been a prevalent lagger throughout the whole US equity rally into all-time highs. This is of concern for the health of the economy and the health of the S&P 500 index. The small-cap sector reacts the most to economic conditions and monetary policy, being the most affected if they cannot make new highs and are over 8.5% away...
US treasury yields and the S&P 500 have a positive correlation. The two usually move lockstep to a certain degree and when they diverge, they don't stay divergent for too long. This time, however, at the beginning of 2019, the divergence occurred and has continued for nearly 12 months now. The idea behind the correlation is that bond prices are typically...
The equity markets in the US have been moving really well through highs like its nobody's business, however as they continuously progress the moves get shorter and the pullbacks non-existent. Recent a 1.5-2 year wedge in formation was broken to the upside which indicates a bull trend continuation. Usually, the pop above the broken resistance will revert at least...
Hello, in this pseudo-science idea I try to get a vague idea of how unrealistic is thinking earth will just turn into a fireball, and quantify all this. It's all unprecise and no idea what the real numbers are but I'll work with worse case scenarios and min max, as to get an idea of what order of magnitude to expect. The idea is really not to get a precise...
The recent upside in the bond market has been in tandem with the upside in the S&P 500. The move higher in bonds is largely due to the lower rates in monetary policy. Which should not directly affect long-term bonds by much but they have had some effect. Over the past three months, Bonds have gone down while the S&P 500 has made a lot of gains. The 30-year bonds...
This is a tutorial on how to use Price multiples. Portfolio managers will use basic valuation heuristics like price to sales or price to earnings to help time their blue-chip stock purchases/sales. So you will often find support/resistance in the historical price-multiple chart. Apple looks very overvalued here from this recent run up to a 1.16T market cap. What...

1- They don't need to. JPM was the 6th most profitable company in the world in 2018 according to fortune. They made $32.4 billion net profit (109 billion in revenue). They have 2.7 trillion worth of assets. Turning 10 million into 1 billion in 5 years which is the dream of many, they won't even notice. 2- They have to set up a whole department, risk...
It's actually disgusting that it would be so easy... Countries approaching socialism: Sell & Let them starve. Countries abandonning socialism: Buy & Hold. It's barely more complicated than this. Most African countries have been living in absolute misery probably because after the soviet union stopped sending them free stuff, the european union and americans...
I recently published an idea on the (mostly innate) qualities required to be a good speculator. Next I will write an idea on what one has TO DO to accomplish his goal of being profitable. Not general qualities. What actually must be done. That thing we never hear about, trading educators never ever tell anyone this, all they do is mention "the psychology" and...
These past years we have heard alot the word "decentralization", most of it (sadly) comes from crypto speculators. In truth very few care about it (if you disagree compare videos articles posts about decentralization to those about the price). Decentralization has always been a big important subject, even if 99% are totally oblivious to it. A new word has appeared...
