The biggest headline on Drudge  earlier this morning?  “FoxNews host death threats after criticizing Trump.” Following linked story from Drudge will land you on a Variety page where we read “Fox News host Eboni K. Williams on receiving death threats after segment criticizing Trump.”  Yet, after reading the story (several times) I couldn’t find anything … Read More

Been “one of those weeks” so far. Turns out the doc appointment is this morning – not Wednesday.  I missed a meal for nothing.  Why I had both days marked in Outlook is a mystery. And then the replacement treadmill showed up Tuesday.  The delivery truck couldn’t get onto the property (too big) and they … Read More

The first 40-odd pages of “the next book” is up for subscribers to have a look at – and comments are welcome.  A second novel in my David Shannon adventure series is in the works, but I felt it was necessary to first write a non-fiction book to explain how some of the concepts central … Read More

“As you go through life, make this your goal:  Keep your eye on the doughnut, not on the hole.”  [old school wisdom] The holes are?  Well, lemme see: Charlottesville, and the hype about follow-on places where idiots of all stripes can be gathered in.  Followers are everywhere if you find the right pied-piper. North Korea … Read More

Ure’s “Personal Health Report” time:  At 10 AM today will be my last meal until about noon tomorrow.  Reason?  Off to see the vampire – the nice nurse who does the periodic blood draws. A reader advised me, since my last visit, that going with a longer fast prior to the doc’s office, may significantly improve … Read More

I mentioned to Peoplenomics.com subscribers this weekend that I had gotten back on the long side of the market again after my short-side play didn’t work out.  After all, I’ve been calling for an all-time-high next week for, um, a year, or so. Those playing the game of “See Market’s Kill George” (home edition) will … Read More

Elaine and I were pretty disappointed last week.  We had invited two of the best local real estate agents/brokers out to look over the old Uretopia property and tell us what they thought it was worth. Their answer was shocking:  We would net less than $200K from the place, they figured.  No, there’s no pay-off … Read More

Can you learn to be a genius of the Buffett or Templeton class investor in three minutes? No. But what we can cover this morning will be a simple (non-numeric) approach that will use some of our charting techniques to avoid at least (we hope!) some of the major pitfalls and potholes. That, plus coffee … Read More

We need to start off with a lot of caveats and asterisks before we go further:  A) This is not financial advice.  B) The chart that follows is based on the proprietary trading model I developed for www.peoplenomics.com subscribers and my own use. C) The chart is only considered “complete” after the close on Friday’s … Read More

I have written about this long ago, but it is worth doing again, I suppose:  Now that we’re on the cusp of a weekend, with absolutely no warning whatsoever, go home and did connect your landline, turn off your power at the main breaker, and shut off your water. The cell phone battery comes out, … Read More

Yes, you bet!  As soon as I booked the loss on my experimental (and I knew it would be premature) short position, along has come my predicted “One last big down” before we finish at new all times highs in a few weeks (says my modeling) and then we will swan song into the fall. … Read More

You may remember last month, or so, back we did a Peoplenomics article on how “certain sources” of ours were concerned about the “urban-spillover” effect in the event of a widespread (REGIONAL AND UP) attack on the power grid. Today, we see another side of this concern coming to light in the report about how the … Read More

Odds are you have never heard of it.  There’s a reason for that:  It doesn’t run on any computer you own, unless you are a mighty power in mathematics (or an unspeakable math geek). But there is a model that is driving government policy.  Since we’re in the midst of a stock market blow-off top, … Read More
