Last week, news outlets reported the release of minutes from the Federal Reserve’s meeting in January. We all know that when the Fed meets, it’s usually big news. Since the financial crisis, the central bank has been ever-so-gradually raising interest rates, from zero, to where they now sit, in a range of 2.25% to 2.5%. But ever since equities markets fell sharply to end 2018, the Fed has been sending mixed signals. I won’t bore you with the details, but the short version is that Fed Chair Jerome Powell seemed committed to gradual increases… until things… Read More

Last week, news outlets reported the release of minutes from the Federal Reserve’s meeting in January. We all know that when the Fed meets, it’s usually big news. Since the financial crisis, the central bank has been ever-so-gradually raising interest rates, from zero, to where they now sit, in a range of 2.25% to 2.5%. But ever since equities markets fell sharply to end 2018, the Fed has been sending mixed signals. I won’t bore you with the details, but the short version is that Fed Chair Jerome Powell seemed committed to gradual increases… until things got a little ugly. So the question became whether the Fed would continue raising rates gradually or take an even softer stance going forward. So here’s what we learned from the official notes from the meeting… #-ad_banner-#As it stands, the central bank still holds about $3.8 trillion in Treasury bonds on its balance sheet. The “balance sheet reduction” program, where the Fed was holding U.S. government bonds to maturity without making any new repurchases, will likely conclude at the end of the year. (Remember QE, or quantitative easing? Well, this was quantitative “tightening,” if you will.) Still with me? Good,… Read More

I recently finished remaking one of the rooms at my house into a personal office. After rearranging and unpacking boxes, I found myself thumbing through an old copy of “Beating the Street,” by Peter Lynch. It had been a while since I’ve read it, and I can faithfully report that most of what Lynch writes about still holds up in today’s market. I’m sure you’re familiar with Lynch, but his track record bears repeating. While at the helm of the Magellan Fund at Fidelity, Lynch delivered a 29.2% average annual return from 1977 to 1990. Probably the greatest mutual fund… Read More

Probably the greatest mutual fund manager of all time, we have Lynch to thank for popular investing phrases like “invest in what you know,” “10-bagger” (a stock that gains 1,000%), “GARP” (growth at a reasonable price), and more.

About four years ago, our publisher introduced me to a man who knows more about options trading than anyone I’ve ever met. This man is something of a wunderkind.

If you’ve been a regular reader of StreetAuthority Insider, then you probably know who I’m talking about: Jared Levy, Chief Investment Strategist of Profit Amplifier. Now, those of you who have followed Jared over the years know that his read on the market is nearly impeccable. That’s thanks to years of experience in the trenches of the high-stakes trading pits in Philadelphia and New York, as well as his sophisticated-yet-simple method of trading. But when Jared came to us with a “crazy hunch” nearly a year ago… we thought he was kidding, or absolutely bonkers. “Is Jared OK?” This question, raised by one of our younger employees around the StreetAuthority offices, was a fair one. He just simply had the stones, or was naïve enough, to ask it out loud. But those… Read More

Dad was crushing it at work. He travelled nearly every week on business, Monday through Friday. He learned new programming languages, worked long hours… but it was all worth it. Read More

Why So-Called Market “Edges” Soon Disappear Back in 1981, an academic named Rolf Banz published a paper on something called the “small-firm effect.” It showed that buying small-cap stocks generated “abnormal returns,” even when adjusted for risk. #-ad_banner-#At around the same time, researchers uncovered the “value effect,” which showed that buying stocks with low P/E ratios earned market-beating returns.
