Today is one of those day's that will be a defining moment in Jerome Powell's legacy, As Chairman of the Federal Reserve, at 2pm today, what he says and how he says it will either bring stability to the Markets or trigger a sell-off. We'll see. After the last several days of Market declines, the S&P 500 fell more than 10% off of its highest level and I opened a position in our investment allocation. If the Markets continue spiraling downward, I will add to it as it reaches my next target price. I'll keep you posted. Stay Safe & Stay Sane.

The addition of the Transportation Sector completes my objective for having complete coverage in this area. With this index, we have a broad net over airlines, cargo ships, railroads and trucking lines - areas that directly impact inflationary pressures. As these areas loosen and return to normal, inflationary pressures will diminish.

Markets continue to slide due to rampant speculation and panic selling nurtured by a lack of clear direction from The Federal Reserve. Today, I outline our expectations for the end, what it will take, and the opportunities we are capitalizing on as others thrash around.

The Airline Index is a sub-set of the Transportation Index. It's a specialized/boutique investment that we occasionally invest in whenever the "Goldilocks Opportunity" presents itself - It's got to be "Just Right". I discuss why we invested, the challenges we've faced and our timeline for exiting and profit target

I review our investments in the Technology Sector, the causal effect that rising interest rates have on valuations and the resulting sector re-pricing (sell-off) as well as provide an outline of our profit and the time-line for reinvestment in the sector.

Inflation is Rampant, Wages are Dropping - The Market should be re-pricing (falling) but continues to climb.
What am I missing? Is there a "Puppet Master" in the Shadows

Later this week, I’ll begin sending out an audio every couple of days "spotlighting" one of our current holdings.
It seems like a good opportunity to start with an outline on the process for choosing an investment.
In this audio, I cover the type of investing we do, how we find our candidates and the criteria/process we use to analyze the company before deciding to discard it or add it to our holdings.

The market selloff which started last week and continues today, as I’ve pointed out for weeks (most recently in the 1 January audio email) was not unexpected
We have been preparing for it
