Last April I moved the portfolio management style over to Asset Allocation as the Bohr was not performing as expected. Now that we face the high probability of a market crash, I am paying close attention to the recommendations that come out of the Kipling spreadsheet. As readers will see in a moment, no equity […]

Recession: Will Equities Drop In The Next 18 Months?
There are two reasons for posting this blog. With Recession in the title, readers a year from now can Google the word and come up with this post showing when ITA was sounding the alarm for the coming recession – or worse. In fact, I have been hinting at the coming market draw-down for months. […]

These limit orders […]
