Good Monday morning everyone. Monday’s mean ‘Momentum Monday’ and while it has not been fun to be ‘Howie’ in a market that hates growth since December , the show must go on. Also, being Howie is relative and my heart goes out to the people of Ukraine suffering while I surf the internet. I am …

Sunday Reads and Listens – Could Things Break?
Happy Sunday. It was a historical week as Russia invaded Ukraine. The tech public markets have been wrecked also tried to find a bottom. General Stanley McChrystal gave an interview on Ukraine risk that I thought was worth sharing. Thanks Pete for sharing. As for stocks, the tech bear market is likely a return to …
Wretched Excess…Flirting With Trouble
Good morning everyone. I have never listened to a long Charlie Munger Q&A but I just did. I blame my age. But…it was pretty, pretty, pretty good. Charlie has been talking about ‘wretched excess’ a lot over the years and he is right. He is worried about how ‘money printing’ has always ended with inflation …
Searching Russia
I have never been to Russia. My first memory of Russia was ‘The Goal Of The Century‘ by Paul Henderson and being 7 years old in grade 2 screaming with joy with my fellow classmates. The other night when Russia invaded Ukraine I pinged Rob at Koyfin who has family there and asked if they …

Truth Social – The Truth is The Price and It Will Not Go To Zero
I am fascinated by the Trump SPAC Digital World Acquisition $DWAC. Everything physical Trump (casino, football team, airline, water, steaks, Presidency) ends with a horrific loss, lawsuits, turncoats and a lot of zero’s. Unlike Trump physical things that disappear, this digital thing he has attached himself too will not go away. Sure there will be …

Sunday Listens – The Anti-Conglomerate
Good morning everyone. I had a great ride yesterday and have a long morning ride with my regular Sunday group this morning. The weather in Phoenix continues to be perfect. There was no winter. In a couple weeks I head on the road for most of April and May. I am calling it the cycling …
How Bad Is 2022? Is There an End in Sight?
One Month ago I wrote ‘The End of Fomo‘. The gist: The last twelve to 18 months was a FOMO era. They will say that inflation and interest rates killed this great market run, but as someone watching and writing about investing every day here I knew it was going to be supply. Supply is …
