Observations

There is only one way to say it – it is crazy. What is

happening is incredible. Up 300 points on the Dow. Down

300 points the next day. Investors are nervous,

uncomfortable about where we are heading. EU banks down

 5%. Sinking energy and financial stocks. There is a

 big problem out there. Add to all this a Fed which is

tightening with manufacturing in recession and taking the

rest of the economy with it. There is only one way to put it

– be careful. 

 

The Fed wants to push rates higher with long yields sinking

and the yield curve flattening, pointing to even slower

growth. Rising financial risk adds to the grim uncertainties

facing the markets. This environment will continue to

depress EPS.
