13 Week Money Supply Growth Reaches 6.5%

Money Supply is a very important indicator. It helps show how tight or loose current monetary conditions are regardless of what the Fed is doing with interest rates. Even if the Fed is tight, if Money Supply is increasing, it has an inflationary effect. One key metric shown below is the “Wenzel” 13-week annualized money […]

Covid Was Normal

The COVID-19 pandemic allowed for a concerted campaign to convince people that the situation was anything but normal.

Why Rate Cuts Only Delay Economic Recovery

Politicians have tricked their citizens into believing that low interest rates will solve their economic troubles– perhaps by lowering housing prices or stimulating the economy out of a recession.
