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-

Beware a Confident Consumer – bound to be disappointed!
I’ve written before (many times) about the fact that strong consumer confidence is not at all good for the markets. You must have heard the news: “The Consumer Confidence Index increased in November and is now at its highest level in more … Continue reading
