Investing in the stock market is a lot like flying an airplane. You fly for hours and hours –
Index Day, Odessa Woes Grow – Av 9 Closing In
How about a nice serving of Philly Fed and New U.I. filings to light up this morning? Might as well – the Ure’s are going in for teeth cleanings today while G2 holds down the fort. Very much a “doing the checklist” kind of day. Which means a column along the same lines. Economy? Check. … Read More

Markets Rocket, You Have Voicemail
Someone called our Audio Comment line (903) 740-0596. And laid these kind words on us: No, actually not much work to my system. Just works – really neat. Which is why I keep saying “Would someone tell Elon Musk that crazy geezer of the woods Ure in the East Texas outback has the way … Read More
Merit-Based Lifespans
You know the Fooled and Doped Administration has halted public sales of NMN – a potentially life extending supplement, right? What is not being spoken of much is the gross (obscene) violation of medical ethics in play. Years ago, there was a study on low-dose aspirin, and when the trials showed the intervention worked, the … Read More
OK, It Works and People are Afraid
This is really interesting – my idea to turn social into something really cool with click to talk to post on the web. We did get out first (and so far only response) as of martini time Tuesday. Here, take a listen for yourself. Thank you world famous Amazon Author A.G. Kimbrough – whose work … Read More
Retail Sales and New Voicemailed Comments
Before we get into Retail Sales, I want to announce the kickoff of the UrbanSurvival voicemail comment line. 903-740-0596 Go ahead, call. We love reader feedback, but sometimes you just don’t have time to write a comment online. You know, driving, between meetings. We get that life is busy. Now, that’s no problem. Just call … Read More
Ch…Ch…Ch…Changes!
Yes, stuttering like in that David Bowie song, time for a couple of reader-impacting changes here on the old (since 1998) UrbanSurvival site. FIRST: The home page is now showing only a summary of the day’s report. Simple reason for this: Google Search seems to have been underscoring (and as a result under-indexing us) because the … Read More
Options Week, Recession Evaporation
We’ll hold off on chart sharing until Peoplenomics subscribers get to Wednesday. But, the short translation of visual-to-text is we are walking the top of the trend channel of Wave 2. The Aggregate Index high of November 2021 led to a blow-down into Q3 2022. But from that low (of Wave 1 down) we have rallied … Read More
ShopTalk Sunday: SDR 101 (and HVAC Install) School
Before we get started on SDR school, a few quick notes on the new nearly noise-free air conditioner unit. It was on sale – part of Amazon Prime Days – and it works as advertised. Quietly. Over time you learn that the best a/c installation is where you get air moving as freely around your … Read More
The Anti-Aging Elixir (1)
Investors – deep down – know one of the fundamental rules of money is “Must be present to Win.” Which means there’s a reason to spend profits now and then on getting healthy as possible. This week, we focus on a key new idea that has come out of research into life extension. But while … Read More
Power Density Friday – Markets and Woo-Woo
Yes, that’s right: PDF Friday. Power Density Friday. And, because I’m in a long-winded mood, this will be a two or three-cupper. So what’s this power-density idea? As humans, we are uniquely underqualified to see hidden aspects of Nature. By reason of our “lock on Time.” Trust me, this all relates to Markets and recent … Read More
Markets, Amazon, War – All “Past Our Prime”
Before we get into the morning fray, a bit of data has just dropped: May I present? Producer Prices! The Producer Price Index for final demand increased 0.1 percent in June, seasonally adjusted, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Final demand prices declined 0.4 percent in May and edged up 0.1 percent in … Read More
