Review
"This book is like Mal - who is a rider, a rocker and a rebel. He doesn't just think outside the box - he drags it behind his Harley on a cross-continent adventure and then runs over it a few times for good measure. The Bay and Wall Street guys are gonna hate it - Main Streeters should embrace it. One ton of fun!" BJ Del Conte Chase Producer, BNN - Business News Network Business Producer/Anchor - CP24-

Earnings surprises impotent; Earnings shocks potent!

Bond rally or feint? Bullish stocks again!

Global meltdown or “a pause for the cause?”
The good news, is that I continue to see regular (less frequent that 2 years ago for sure) predictions that the financial world is about to go into a meltdown along with Japanese nuclear reactors. Good news because if everyone were seeing the … Continue reading
