If you’re not familiar with the term “fourth turning”, you need to patch that educational deficiency asap. Famed demographer Neil Howe coined the term years ago to describe the tumult & unwinding that occurs at major turning points in society when the status quo starts failing, ultimately to be replaced by a new order. Think the American Revolution, the Civil War, and World War 2. Howe has long predicted that America and the West would enter such a Fourth Turning early in the new millennium,...

With the aggressive return of higher interest rates, the gargantuan piles of debt that world nations owe to each other suddenly become a lot more worrisome. Higher interest rates means higher debt service costs. Which means less money left over for governments to fund their operations. Today's guest, macro analyst Luke Gromen, has long warned that the world has been heading into a massive sovereign debt crisis. Have today's rising interest rates just accelerated the day of reckoning? And what wi...

Car prices went bananas after COVID hit -- propelled by inventory shortages from disrupted supply chains & the unprecedented stimulus sent to businesses & households. Now here in 2022, the boom may be ending. Used car prices which nearly doubled post-COVID, have fallen for much of this year -- though still remain much higher than their pre-pandemic lows. Also, lax lending standards in extending auto loans during the recent boom are coming back to bite lenders -- the percentage of loans t...

A lot of focus is put on the employment rate by today's economists. And by their measure, the jobs market is still robust, with unemployment, currently at 3.7%, down near all-time lows. However, those calculations completely ignore the 100 million US adults categorized as "not in the labor force" who do not work and are not looking for work. That's pretty much 1 out of every 3 US adults. A good number of those people are retired or are students. Some are caregivers and some are on disability. Bu...

At the close of the worst years for stocks & bonds combined on record, markets are trying to engineer a year-end rally to convince investors the bear market is over. Is it? And as we enter 2023 where is all this headed? Will asset prices shrug off the growing litany of macro concerns and recover in the new year? Or will 2023 be another bruising year for portfolios?

Like it or not, central bank policy remains a principal driver of asset prices in the financial markets today. This year the Federal Reserve and many other central banks reversed years of easy monetary policy and began hiking interest rates & tightening their balance sheets. One of the worst years ever for stocks & bonds has ensued. As recently as last week, Fed Chair Jerome Powell answered comments for the public at the Brookings Institute and, given how they interpreted -- or possibly ...
