Used to be in America, we embraced process (including jury trials) because (write this down and review daily) process is your friend. Even if you move overseas. Like some … Read More
We will try to be brief because of some AMAZING woo-woo floating around in dream and physical realms. But first, a word (or many) about the market which is due to rally at the open. So hint futures. Philly Fed First Always an interesting bellwether to keep an eye on: “The diffusion index for current … Read More
Can people profit from knowledge of the future? It’s an intriguing question. It’s come up a lot in my life. Particularly since we are fast-approaching our December 1 time machine experiment window.
