Ep. 73 - Not the longest bull market

Market Chat

The Days Ahead: Second estimate of Q2 GDP and Personal Income. One-Minute Summary: There are indications that markets are becoming inured to tweets. What would have shattered confidence a few years ago now passes for normal. The noise-to-signal ratio in investments is always high. What seems important at the time, probably doesn't count very much for long term investments. We look at the economic cycle, inflation, earnings and rates. Data on most of those fronts didn't change much. Stocks had a good week, especially small caps. Emerging Markets were up 2.5% but the news from China (trade) and Turkey (currency) was unchanged. Put it down to summer volumes. The main story was the dollar, which weakened by 1.6%, its worst week since February.
