Before you start wondering if the VTI editorial team has lost their wits, just jamming any note about Halloween into this week’s newsletter, please know that I was informed that Ron William had written an article about the Halloween Effect. And I wrote an additional tag-back to that article anyway. It’s not like there’s nothing…
I’ve written about asset correlation multiple times in the past three years. And guess what. We need to chat about it again. This time we’re dropping back to just the correlation between stocks (spoiler alert for my next follow-up article: Correlations are high for lots of assets right now, including crypto).

Every single person who knows I am a market watcher has asked me the same question for the last two weeks. This past Monday (September 26th, 2022), I was asked at least three times as often. In fairness, the S&P 500 Index chart that many of them were looking at does beg this question. And…
The huge sell-off early on Tuesday, September 13, 2022, had both the perma-bulls and the end-of-the-world gang pushing their agendas hard and fast. In particular, I had just read a piece, late last week, from an investor and writer that I really like. But, it was pushing the bullish agenda, big-time. And to be honest,…

For a couple of years before covid, my lovely and talented wife and I made an annual trek to Scotland. I wrote about it back then in this same space (in 2018 and 2019). Today I get to write about this favorite country of mine again. Since international travel is getting back to normal, we…
Well before the Covid pandemic, and even before there was much of a trade war between the U.S. and China, I wrote about the concept of drawing a “Line in the Sand” as it related to a simple moving average in the S&P 500 that just wouldn’t be broken for many years in a row….
“Nostalgia isn’t what it used to be.” —Peter de Vries, American satirist Who doesn’t love sitting around with old friends, reminiscing about the good old days? Even the most jaded soul will have plenty of fond memories stored in the recesses of his or her mind. But inflation talk is ruling the markets right now….
