Sentiment plummets – along with stocks


“Well, here’s another nice mess you’ve gotten me into!” These immortal words of Laurel and Hardy come to mind as we are gripped by the financial earthquakes caused by the new UK government’s tax-cutting and a smaller state revolution – and the extremely violent reaction

Is the Fed making another huge policy mistake?

Is the Fed making another huge policy mistake?


So, now we know. The Fed really means it when they say they want to crash the economy to kill inflation. But I have one little question: They have a long history of being behind the curve of moving on policy rates and thus they

Stocks Rally in a Crescendo of FOMO


Stocks continued their bear market rally last week as more investors are taking the plunge to ‘get back in’ for fear of missing out (FOMO). Bullish sentiment has changed up a few gears with widespread belief the worst of inflation is over and the Fed

Sterling slumps in the face of BoE rate hike


When will they ever learn? The MSM financial journalists, I mean. The BoE hiked their interest rate by the expected 0.5% on Thursday. Conventional pundits who believe it is the news that drives the markets were totally flabbergasted by the market’s negative reaction to that
