I periodically recycle old posts on my blog to ensure that new clients can benefit from valuable content they may have missed.

Taking a breather
Some of my clients are well aware of my exposure to gold. The long-term outlook for the yellow metal remains strong, but investors should avoid succumbing to emotional biases and arbitrary price targets.

How might markets react to a sweep, or alternatively, the promise of gridlock under a divided government? How might various policy objectives affect different asset classes or sectors in the equity market? How…
Are AI stocks in a bubble?
Everyone and his dog is now familiar with Nvidia. We have taken profits on it, and we continue to hold a long-term position in the TM-IM portfolio. It remains a clear winner of the AI boom. I recently came across this AI report from Goldman Sachs. Here is a section: So far, investor optimism isn’t…
Place your election bets
I will skip the weekly breakfast and instead dig into a partner’s balanced comments regarding the potential ramifications of Trump’s conviction on the upcoming US election. Yeah, yeah, if you are wondering, I’m not one of those die-hard Trump supporters. Eric Lach, in his piece for The New Yorker, described the moments leading up to…
