Fed's Powell Says Taper ‘May Soon Be Warranted'.
(Bloomberg)
Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell speaks about the decision by the Fed's policy-setting Federal Open Market Committee to leave its benchmark interest rate unchanged while signaling that an asset-purchase taper may soon be warranted.
The Return of High Beta?
(All Star Charts)
High-beta stocks are hitting new multi-month highs relative to low volatility. This is the opposite of what would be happening if the world was about to come to an end.
Semiconductor Shortage Getting Worse.
(Washington Post)
The global semiconductor shortage that has paralyzed automakers for nearly a year shows signs of worsening, as new coronavirus infections halt chip assembly lines in Southeast Asia, forcing more car companies and electronics manufacturers to suspend production.
How the “Buy the Dip” Generation Came to Be.
(Compound Advisors)
