Summary Data can easily mislead, but they can also inform. Although the U.S. began consistently to run annual trade deficits in 1976, the negative impact on employment growth that protectionists predict did not materialize. No data or sets of graphs, regardless of how carefull...
Summary As we start the third week of September, with the US Fed’s much-telegraphed rate hike on Wednesday (+.75 with some 30% betting odds of a full percent!), markets are peaked. To date, Canada’s TSX -13% is just a quarter through the price correction experienced ...

Summary Economists, analysts, casual market observers, the Fed, and central banks' many critics all have one thing in common. Almost without exception, they assume monetary policy can be an effective check on inflation. In a world where, to quote Zoltan Pozsar, "the price of e...
Summary Core CPI, excludes food and energy, rose from July's year-over-year reading of 5.9% to a YoY rate of 6.3% in August. FedEx reported dismal earnings on Friday sending the stock down 21%. A large part of the economic data seems to be indicating the economy is slowing. ...
