Looking at market history via the Bear’s Eye View (BEV) plot provides a unique insight into the past. When plotted in dollars, monetary inflation makes nonsense of market data spanning decades. A BEV view of the market, where each new...
For the past two months, excitement in the stock market has been hard to come by. On August 15th the Dow Jones saw its last all-time high, and it made seven new all-time highs in a row in mid-July. But these new highs only nudged the Dow...
Since July 8th the Dow Jones has seen only one day where it closed more than 1.50% from its last all-time high (Aug 2nd: -1.51%). Since then the Dow Jones has also seen nine new all-time highs, seven of them occurred in a string of days...

Bravo Zulu to the people of Great Britain for deciding to kick those worthless EU bureaucrats out of their lives. Though from what I’ve read, it seems Scotland in the main voted to stay in the EU. I’m not surprised. Since the 13th...
