Episode 197:  The S&P500 is at record highs at the same time that corporate profits have been declining for 15 consecutive months.  So are markets anticipating a bottom or is money just flooding into US equities because there are no better options?  It’s all about playing the odds and I discuss the “coin toss” analogy.

Episode 196:  Friday’s jobs report came out extremely strong, making up for May’s abysmal number.  The S&P500 is near record highs because the US economy seems strong and it appears the Fed won’t raise interest rates because of global concerns.

But can rates really stay this low if the economy is so well off?  Rates this week undercut the previous low from 2012…when the US was approaching a “fiscal cliff” and President Obama was reelected.

Negative and near zero interest rates put the value of capital at below par, suggesting that there are no other “safe” places to store money.  Perhaps there aren’t, corporate profits remain feeble, global growth is at a standstill, and US social unrest (indeed, perhaps the world’s) is akin to the turmoil of 1968.

Episode 193:  Market turbulence following the BREXIT vote has subsided and the market enters the second half of the year about 1% off record highs.

In this episode I’ll note how the “experts” got the BREXIT vote wrong and how they’ll likely get the outcome wrong as well.

Episode 191:  The European Union has a severe structural problem whether the UK exits or remains.

The EU could be a successful trade organization (like NAFTA) if it did not use a single currency.  Theoretically the single currency is appealing because Germany benefits due to a comparative weak currency (thus its exports are “cheaper”) and southern countries (Italy, Spain, etc) benefit from a stronger currency (cheaper imports and lower interest rates).

In practice, the system doesn’t work because it defies market principles.  Germany’s economy grows while southern countries fall deeper into a debt death spiral.

Like a loan shark, the system works as long as Germany is prepared to finance its insolvent customers.
