Quantitative Easing Explained . . . Again

As posted to Malekanoms YouTube Channel on 11/11/10 (Run Time: 6 minutes, 48 seconds) Quantitative Easing Explained . . . Again? Why "Again"? That's because I originally posted this clip as Blog Post #150 way back on 11/17/2010 when it was hot off the presses. Now . . . 9 years later, the powers-that-be have learned nothing. On 10/16/2019, the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) released an article entitled, "The Fed Is Buying Treasurys Again. Just Don’t Call It Quantitative Easing".

Plummeting RV Sales Forecast 2020 Recession

Plummeting RV Sales Forecast 2020 Recession

As posted to the Dent Research affiliated website Economy and Markets on 8/26/19 -- Harry Dent | August 26, 2019 RV sales are crashing at a year-over-year rate of 20% below sales for the same period last year. 2017 was the peak thus far and 2018 sales were 4% lower. Hence, this year's crash is making this look like a clear top. This article seeks to demonstrate that plummeting RV sales forecast a 2020 recession. RVs are one of our mid-life-to-retirement sectors for Boomers. Sales used to peak at age 63, but the most recent updates to the Consumer Expenditure Survey shows them peaking a bit earlier, at age 59-60.
