The term “FANG” refers to the four popular technology stocks: Facebook, Amazon, Netflix, and Alphabet (Google). Just about everyone with an employer-sponsored IRA owns these stocks through the mutual funds and ETFs in their portfolio. The acronym FANG makes a word (fangs) that conjures up images of predators ripping apart…
Powerful people know all about narrative. It is the greatest tool in their arsenal. If you can get people to believe what you want them to believe, then you can control their attitudes and behaviors. Narcissists are masters at using narrative to push their agendas and get what they want….
It’s right in front of us, but we do not see. I’m not talking about the coronavirus or the bailout packages or the stay-at-home orders. Nor am I talking about the banking issues, small businesses going bust, mega corporations in trouble, or all the unemployed. The “Titanic” (fiat financial system)…

Last week, I spent a good amount of time reading articles and watching documentaries featuring the smartest and most experienced investors. Scott Minerd, Global CIO of Guggenheim Investments, captured the gist of it: “This will eventually end badly. I have never in my career seen anything as crazy as what’s…
