Beyond the Sound Bite

Last Friday's Bloomberg radio interview with Carol Massar and Cory Johnson can be heard

Recently, Financial Times reporter and market commentator, John Authers authored a market commentary on August 26th in which yours truly was among those quoted, including the following:

This compares the market’s price with its recent trend (its average over the past 50 days) and its longer trend (its average over the past 200 days). When the 50-day moving average drops below the 200-day (sometimes colourfully called a “death cross”) while the price drops below both, and all are heading downwards, an upward trend has been decisively reversed."

On September 1,  I had the pleasure of appearing once again on Bloomberg radio with hosts Carol Massar and Vonnie Quinn. The appearance explored the above noted FT commentary and other related topics further. To listen, click here.

Recently, I had the privilege of appearing on two excellent radio programs: Bloomberg radio's popular program, "Taking Stock with Pimm Fox and Carol Massar" and "On The Money" with Steve Pomeranz, CFP, and an Internet based video interview - FT.com's Authers' Note (see previous posting below). The interviews centered on what you might think they would: the markets and the economy, with a sprinkling of geo politics and market structure issues.

Here are the links to each of them:

* With Don Rissmiller  (Chief Economist, Strategas Research Partners)

* With yours truly, again

My July 3rd appearance on Bloomberg radio's popular program, "Taking Stock with Pimm Fox and Carol Massar" was actually three segments: * One with yours truly* One with Ian Bremmer* and One with Adam SussmanThe discussions ranged from general economic and market matters (me) to geo political issues (Bremmer) to the changed market structure (Sussman). Each segment runs about 7 to 8 minutes in length.
