Over the past 52-weeks, you’ve received over five percent on any combination of short to mid-term agency, corporate, and/or treasury bonds, and that’s not counting today’s expected bond rally. Remember, bonds tend to go up when stocks go down. As the coronavirus creates panic for stock investors (futures are way down as I write to […]
The Sophistication of Simplicity as it Relates to Your Money
You’ve read my series You Invest, They Win. In a wonderful op-ed in the Weekend WSJ was “The Joy and Wisdom of Simplicity,” by Fay Vincent: The other day I found someone citing Henry David Thoreau’s advice from “Walden”: “Simplify, simplify.” I began to think of some seemingly simple yet unusual statements I had encountered. […]
Mayor Mike Thrown Up Against the Wall and Frisked
“Wednesday night in Las Vegas,” writes Pat Buchanan, “Mayor Mike Bloomberg learned what it is like to be thrown up against a wall and frisked.” Why he didn’t come out guns a blazin’ is still a mystery as team Bloomberg is now in damage-control-mode, big-time. It also begs the question, Buchanan points out, why Mayor […]
Americans Flee the Big City Blues
According to the scholar Richard Florida, “the great urban revival is ‘over.’” Americans are leaving “luxury” cities like New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago.

Houston We Have a Problem
The big winner in last night’s debate was President Trump, as Democrats clearly don’t have a dog in this fight.

VA Democrats Can’t Be Convinced to Support “Assault Weapons Ban”
Despite massive amounts of national money and pressure from Governor Ralph “Blackface” Northam that they ought to sign on to an “assault weapons ban,” Democratic senators on the state’s Judiciary Committee could not be convinced to sign their own political-death-warrants. Fox New’s Tyler Olson reports: A bill backed by Gov. Ralph Northam that would ban […]
The Great Holocausts of the Twentieth Century Driven by Radical Ideologues
In his book, The Second World Wars, Victor Davis Hanson takes some time to explain that the three great holocausts of the twentieth century were all rooted in the World Wars, and driven by ideologues: Hitler, Stalin (and Lenin before him) and Mao. He writes: The Soviet Union entered the war and then the democratic […]
“Hello, McFly?”
Nice write-up by Marc Meyers in the WSJ on the anatomy of the song: “The Power of Love” by Huey Lewis and the News, featured in the movie Back to the Future starring Michael J. Fox. Meyers writes (abridged): By 1984, Huey Lewis and the News had eight Billboard pop hits but none cracked the top […]
