  • LIBOR no More
    Well, I guess the LIBOR was a made up thing anyway; but now the LIBOR is being completely replaced by the Secured Overnight Financing Rate. So may the LIBOR rest in peace forever, but as it's resting, what will that mean for new debts issued?

  • Sorry to Burst your Bubble
    Welp. There goes all the major averages. They have all officially entered into correction territory. Some experts suggest we were in an equity bubble prior to this pullback we've just witnessed. So what exactly is a bubble, how does it form and how does it burst? And no, unfortunately we are not talking about champagne.

  • Steeple for Glass-Steagall

    Finally did an episode on the titular banking act that was passed way back in 1933. The Glass-Steagall act was one of the first real banking regulations in America and it proved to be a pivotal point in the life of regulatory oversight of investment/commercial banks. So why did it happen? What came of it? And what's left of it in this day and age?

  • Booze, and Coups blues

    It seems like military coup d'état's are popping up everywhere and political leaders around the world are being randomly over thrown. Last time we talked about a military coup, the result of the coup shocked the price of aluminum (you know, that can that holds beer). So what exactly is a military coup and how does that affect international finance and commodities markets?

  • Saving for Dissaving

    Unlike Antonio Brown, most of us will reach retirement age at 59.5 years old (at least according to the US government). At that point, hopefully we've stashed away a nice little nest egg for retirement or the dissaving period of our lives. In the meantime, what are some of the tools can we use to save up for that chapter? That's where savings and retirement/IRA accounts come in.

  • Flight Time From Hong Kong to Taiwan

    Anyone looking for a one-way ticket from Hong Kong to Taiwan like the capital markets? Additionally, our friends at the FOMC made a powerful statement last week about their new taper tantrum schedule and their plans to pull back money velocity. I guess no one is still aboard the 'inflation is transitory' train anymore.

  • Participation Preferred

    Participatory Preferred is just one of the four types of preferred stock we touched on in this presentation. We'd prefer if you would listen to the rest of the episode to get caught up on the three other types. Also, big news on the Fed meeting today. Be sure to tune in to our reaction next week!

  • Diplomacy for Days

    Speaking of playing chess not checkers, China and Russia are making moves to plant their flag. In case you missed it, China's trying to plant a military base in Equatorial Guinea while Russia looks like they're trying to finish what they started back in 2014. Doesn't seem sus at all...does it.

  • That's a Wild Turkey

    Welcoming back from Turkey week. Speaking of Turkey, their revolving door of Central Bank Chairmans (among other things) have caused their currency to rapidly decline in value. Not to worry though, because the Fed Chair in the states also retired the word 'transitory.' So...lol to everyone that wished me a Happy Thanksgiving.
