What US Stagflation Means for Asian Markets

This nervousness translates into a dampened shopping mood, which stems primarily from the female subconscious.

This dangerous mentality is clearly being offset by the hoarding behavior of men as we stock our pantries and bunkers. Woohoo!

This is just fantastic news. - Donald Luskin

When you narrow risk premiums, stock markets soar....The process is finally working. - David Kotok
