The Market Outlook for the Week Ahead, or Putin’s Dead End

Diary, Free Research, Newsletter

The current consensus for market strategists is that volatility will remain high. Please pinch me because I think I died and went to heaven. For every time the Volatility Index (VIX) tops $30, I make another 10%-15% for my followers. The bulk of market players are now obsessing whether we are entering a recession or

The Barbell Play with Berkshire Hathaway

Diary, Newsletter

It’s time to give myself a dope slap. I have been pounding the table all year about the merits of a barbell strategy, with equal weightings in technology and domestic recovery stocks. By owning both, you’ll always have something doing well as new cash flows bounce back and forth between the two sectors like a

Here’s an Easy Way to Play Artificial Intelligence

Tech Letter

Suppose there was an exchange-traded fund that focused on the single most important technology trend in the world today. You might think that I was smoking California's largest export (it's not grapes). But such a fund DOES exist. The Global X Robotics & Artificial Intelligence ETF (BOTZ) drops a gilt-edged opportunity into investors' laps as a

Revisiting the Great Depression

When I first arrived on Wall Street during the early 1980s, some of the old veterans who worked through the 1929 stock market crash were just retiring and passed their stories on to me before they left. One was my old friend, Sir John Templeton, founder of the Templeton funds, who often hosted me for

Exploring my New York Roots

While in New York waiting to board Cunard’s Queen Mary 2 to sail for Southampton, England, a few years ago, I decided to check out the Bay Ridge address near the Verrazano Bridge where my father grew up. I took a limo over to Brooklyn and knocked on the front door. I told the owner

The Market Outlook for the Week Ahead, or Back to Boot Camp

I have a new outlook for the US stock markets. The current government's economic policy reminds me a lot about the Marine Corps boot camp. Through harsh treatment and rigorous training, the Marines seek to destroy incoming recruits. They then spend 13 weeks rebuilding a new soldier from scratch who is obedient, respectful, follows orders,

A Note on Assigned Options, or Options Called Away

I just received an excited text message from an excited Concierge client. His short position in the (TSLA) February 2025 $540-$550 vertical bear put debit spread had just been called away. That meant he would receive the maximum profit a full 11 trading days before the February 21 option expiration. With the heightened volatility this

They’re Not Making Americans Anymore

You can count on a bear market hitting some time in 2038, one falling by at least 25%. Worse, there is almost a guarantee that a financial crisis, severe bear market, and possibly another Great Depression will take place no later than 2058 and would take the major indexes down by 50% or more. No,

Learning the Art of Risk Control

Now that you know how to make money in the market, I’m going to teach you how to hang on to it. There is no point in booking winning trades only to lose money by making careless beginner’s mistakes. So today, I am going to talk about risk control. The first goal of risk control

The Market Outlook for the Week Ahead, or The Trade War Begins

As I write this, tariffs are coming into force and confusion reigns supreme at the borders. The worst-case scenario has arrived. In the Marine Corp., they say that a missing 50-cent part can ground a $50 million dollar airplane. It turns out that many of the 50-cent parts are made in Canada and Mexico, which
