THINKING ABOUT RISK PREMIUMS
Rating 3.00 out of 5
[?]Submitted by The Capital Spectator
What should we expect from Mr. Market? The answer’s always in doubt, but strategic-minded investors should run through the numbers anyway.
It’s hard to overrate the value of taking a hard look at investing assumptions. By continually putting an expected price on risk, we become better investors. There […]

It is with great sadness that I report that Sir Clive Granger passed away last night. He had been a wonderful colleague and good friend.
Clive always had a particular passion for identifying what was predictable in economic relationships. He emphasized the importance of sorting out which variables are helpful […]

Remember the four robins that just hatched from their eggs on May 15?
In exactly two weeks, they grew up, opened their eyes, and fledged. Both parents helped with the feeding, something that doesn’t always happen in robins.
This morning all four flew successfully from their nest platform into the […]

Food, Inc. was at the Delray Beach Film Festival last weekend, about 30 miles south of me. But I wasn’t. Nothing about its “Alliances” (or it’s “Issues“) screams vegan, or even whispers it, but I shall reserve judgment. If more people eat actual food as a result (i.e., […]

Carl Fredericksen is 78. He’s also one of the main characters of a new animated movie from Disney via Pixar. Building an animated movie around an elderly man is amazing enough, but the unusual qualifies of “Up” don’t stop with Carl’s age. The movie also deals with death […]
