Can You Trust the Experts?
One story related by Peter L. Bernstein in “Against the Gods: the remarkable story of risk” was the experience of Kenneth Joseph Arrow, an American economist and joint winner of the 1972 Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics. Some officers had been assigned the task of forecasting weather a month ahead, but Arrow and his statisticians found that their long-range forecasts were no better than numbers pulled out of a hat. The forecasters agreed and asked their superiors to be relieved […]

The Most Unloved Investment
Last Wednesday, I participated in an interesting discussion on CNBC’s Closing Bell regarding what I consider to be the most “unloved” investment. Most continue to scratch their heads as to why they haven’t cratered with the trillions of the dollars our Fed has created over the past few years. But there are bigger stories at play. For years, most have thought that inflation would really kick into high gear, but that certainly hasn’t happened. You may have seen it at […]

Stocks at Inflection Point
Here is the article based on my interview with CNBC’s European Closing Bell from May 1. http://www.cnbc.com/id/47243367 The 2012 bull market still has further to run, according to Paul Schatz, president of Heritage Capital, an independent investment banking and advisory firm. Instead of a major selloff, Schatz believes that the equity markets will only peak later on in the year, or early in 2013. But he’s undecided about whether this will incorporate a “sell in May and go away” mantra. […]

Europe’s Debt Problems are Here for Many More Years
In my bi-weekly interview with my friends from ET NOW in India, I continue to share my long-term view that Europe’s debt problems are not going away anytime soon. Although that may seem bad on the surface, markets have a way of discounting known and anticipated news into current prices. Remember 2008? Who could forget it?!?! The stock market turned down long before the economy and news. And right at THE bottom in March 2009, the news was about as […]

Gold to $2000 and Beyond
Here is the second video I did with the folks from Yahoo! at their beautiful new studio in the city. Anytime there are bold statements on gold, people come out of the woodwork to comment. And I would be surprised if they aren’t at least 100 comments by the time you read this. One of the great myths is that gold goes up when there is inflation. I think the 1990s is the perfect example of why that isn’t true. […]

The Fed, QE and Earnings Season
I had a great time with the folks at Yahoo! yesterday in New York in their brand spanking new studio. We tape three fairly controversial segments and Matt Nesto knew exactly how to bait me just right! Here is the first piece. Enjoy! http://finance.yahoo.com/blogs/breakout/move-bernanke-qe3-115057583.html#more-13067 In case you missed it, The House of Mirrors has officially taken the place of The Earnings & Fundamental Palace on Wall Street. I say this at a time when the aspirations and way forward for […]

Jobs Report Overreaction
Last week on CNBC I commented on how investors and the media are way too concerned about one less than expected jobs report from Friday, just like they were way too celebratory last month. While I am glad we raised cash a few weeks, I plan to redeploy that this quarter into weakness. Give a look… http://video.cnbc.com/gallery/?video=3000083018&play=1
