Some of you may remember the iconic financial show "Wall Street Week." It aired many years ago on Friday nights on PBS and was hosted by financial legend Louis Rukeyser. The show was resurrected last year by Wall Street titans Anthony Scaramucci and Gary Kaminsky. I was more than humbled when they asked me to [...]
Barack Obama will do everything in his power to keep the U.S. stock market up until the end of his Presidency. He inherited an economy that was in a recession, and his number one priority is to leave the U.S. better off "by every economic measure" than it was when he took office. Now before [...]

Last week, I had the pleasure of attending the 6th Annual SALT Conference. Thanks to the leadership and vision of Anthony Scaramucci, this event has evolved "from a financial conference to one of the world's leading thought leadership forums."

First of all, this is NOT a prediction post. I used to post them for fun in the past, but that's all they were...for fun. I'm not a big fan of predictions because 1) NO ONE knows where the market it going and 2) We are all allowed to change our minds based on the information [...]
I've been trading for 18 years. The beautiful part about it is that I am ALWAYS learning. The second you think you know everything and have the stock market all figured out, you're dead! The lesson I am about to share is not a "new" lesson, but rather, one that has been reinforced this year. [...]

Through @howardlindzon's StockTwits platform, he allows me to share my [...]

I had friends who were obsessed with $CSCO $DELL $MFST $INTC etc. They would watch their growth stocks go up, talk about how hot Maria was (and still is), and [...]
