Episode 216:  In this episode we’ll take a break from discussing the stock market and instead consider the one of the aspects of the art of negotiating.  In particular, I’ll focus on the skill of distraction.

Understanding negotiation techniques is extremely important, if for no other purpose than these two reasons:

* You are compensated to the degree you can negotiate.

* By recognizing negotiation techniques you can prevent yourself from being taken advantage of.

That last point is especially applicable when listening to CEO’s talk up their company stock prospects.

Episode 215:  Hanesbrands are down over 23% in the past 6 months.  The pullback is not limited to an isolated underwear manufacturer, the consumer products and services sector is in a slump.  Under Armour is down almost 55% and toymaker Mattel is down nearly 22%.

In this episode I’ll rundown the worst performers and ask if this is a buying opportunity or a harbinger of things to come?

Episode 214:  I receive many questions asking if people stuck in dead-end jobs should go back to school.  We’ll discuss that topic in this episode.  It all boils down to ROI- return on investment…which in this case should include both the tuition as well as opportunity costs.

In a lot of cases, NO...it does not make sense to go back to school.  But that doesn’t mean that you should stop learning or achieving demonstrable skills.

You also need to learn to MARKET yourself.

Speaking of careers…here’s a link to a very interesting and informative interview I did with Austin Martin of the Homesteady podcast.  Austin’s emphasis is on farming but the concepts we discuss relate to career and wealth building principles:  https://www.thisishomesteady.com/how-to-farm-or-homestead-when-you-have-no-extra-money/

Episode 213:  Since the last week of December 2016 I’ve been accumulating Global ETFs and also a few US sectors that I think are undervalued.  In this episode I’ll briefly discuss all 15 positions in my portfolio.  The position breakdown is 8 Global ETFs, 4 US Value (3 stocks & 1 EFT) and 3 Speculative ETFs.

This one chart pretty well sums up my thesis on Global stocks:  http://www.investablewealth.com/global-vs-us-markets/

Episode 211:  I still expect this rally to fade given the existence of the same problems the economy has faced since the Financial Crisis of 2008.  No, I’m not expecting an economic collapse but stock and bond prices are at extremely high valuations.  That almost always results in a sharp correction, usually during a recession.

In this episode I’ll review some of the ongoing issues in light of President Trump.

Episode 208:  The stock market has been in a long consolidation trend for about the past 24 months.  If you have been using a buy & hold strategy over that timeframe your total annual S&P500 return (including dividends) is probably less than 3%.

To receive that miserly rate you’ve had to suffer through two double-bottom corrections.

Today we’ll discuss this consolidation trend and a little about the concept of ALPHA- risk adjusted returns.
