Forget Yesterday, It's All About Jobs

Fri, 04 Dec 2009 13:21:30 GMT

Fed Balance Sheet Declines By $15 Billion After Improbable Reduction In MBS, Excess Reserves, Monetary Base Hit Record

Fri, 04 Dec 2009 04:14:41 GMT

Thu, 03 Dec 2009 20:43:41 GMT

Inflation and deflation are the two most important factors for a well designed wealth management investment strategy.

Interesting Stat: How Much Private Sector GDP Is From Construction And Real Estate?

Thu, 03 Dec 2009 13:15:56 GMT

Back in June, we discussed commercial real estate at length following attendance at a large real estate conference in NYC. Our tone was cautious and one question we wondered about was the percentage of GDP that real estate represents. We actually came across the answer back in August and meant to share then, but didn't get to it.

Investing: Playing a Pullback in the Dollar

Thu, 21 May 2009 15:03:00 GMT

With signs of improving economic conditions worldwide, investors are once again starting to consider higher-risk vehicles such as currencies.
The spark for the mini-rally: a combination of encouraging remarks by Timothy Geithner about improving credit markets and signals that Fed officials are willing to raise the mortgage and Treasury bond purchasing programs beyond the $1.75 trillion the Fed has already agreed to buy, according to Action Economics.

Sun, 16 Nov 2008 15:12:00 GMT

Nov. 16--Larry Carrel is a big fan of exchange traded funds.
The Amherst native and former Smart- Money.com columnist calls ETFs "mutual funds for the 21st century" and touts them as a cost-effective way for investors to broadly diversify their portfolios.
