A Year-End Rally?

November 25, 2009

This time of year, we normally can count on the market being in full-rally mode. There is a term that I use in my book "Maverick Investing" to describe this time of year. I call it the growth season, and it’s from Nov. 1 through April 30. Historically, this is the time when the market […]

Also known as black gold, oil is among the commodities that tend to be inversely related to the strength of the U.S. dollar. As the dollar dips, the price of oil rises.

The Professor on the Dollar

November 18, 2009

“Has America’s Federal Reserve become the single greatest obstacle to global economic recovery? Central bankers around the world increasingly are asking this question as the American greenback continues its Fed-inspired decline and damages the export-driven growth of countries from Latin America and Asia to Europe.” The preceding quote comes to us courtesy of my friend […]

November 18, 2009

I find it both a welcome relief and an ironic twist of fate that President Obama now feels compelled to address the issue of our national debt.

ETF Talk: ‘Pure Play’ Funds Target Texas and Oklahoma

Two new funds, rolled out in the past couple of weeks, give investors a chance to target the energy-rich states of Texas and Oklahoma, respectively. The new funds simplify such targeted investing. The Oklahoma fund (OOK) took flight […]
