About this episode
(9/6/23) All those Jobs numbers deserve a look under the hood: Are we really creating new jobs or just replacing the ones that went away? NOTE: Following each Jobs Report, revisions are made to previous numbers; this year's revisions are the most negative since the financial crisis. Are Jobs numbers a Recession indicator? The Risk remains. Markets in Correctional Period, VIX suppression vs history; investors have no apparent fear of Recession. Sleeping-in & Zip-lock bags; everyone is convinced no Recession is coming. All indicators say otherwise. How the bottom 80% are living. Investment types you should avoid: Speculative assets (ex.: Irani Dinar craze); Private REIT's: Why are they being offered to YOU?? Liquidity is key: When do you get your money back? Who is making the money on the deal? I-bonds: No one understands them. Any investment you don't understand. "High Yield" Bonds = High risk. Leverages ETF's: Risky; Commodities: are really options w decay of premium, and subject to boom/bust cycles. SEG-1: Jobs Picture May Not Be So Robust SEG-2: Sleeping Late, Ziplock Bags, No Recession?
