A walk with a Greek … Kevin pulls the trigger … A 53 and 64 Friday?

J.K. Financial, Inc. A Greek, A Kevin with a Hammer, A 53 & 64?

A Greek worth explaining

Next week … if all goes well, a planned talk about one of the Greeks !

Not to worry, it is not heavy, but you guys are doing great with some of the latest information, and while we are at it, if all goes well, we wanted to discuss a fun Greek… Not just any Greek… but one worth mentioning…

No need to teach it, only to have awareness… It is called Beta!

Again, if all goes well over the weekend… Unlike last weekend where we felt some information was due given the weekend banters… a discussion on friendly Greek…

Kevin Warsh brings the Hammer

Cannot image the push and pulls that went on before, during, and especially after the FOMC meeting headed by Kevin Warsh this week…

Raising interest rates were what the Bond guys wanted… likely not many others… Recall raising rates is a brake on the Economy…

This of course due in part, but mainly to our Strange Bedfellows connections Oil/Interest rates and also the CPI … which all headed higher!

Orange is Fed Funds rate

Not a perfect overlay chart…but the direction of each is pretty obvious!

What do 53 and 64 have in common?

Its a Friday here in Texas and we are breaking a record from 1954 … 53 days over 100 degrees…

Not to be outdone, we are at 64 CONSECUTIVE days without Rain…

With many of you reading this in areas where this is no big deal, we get it … BUT our foliage is not used to this… crispy yards and trees…

Ahhhhh…. included next week with a little luck, is Rain and a few below 100~ Finally…

Have a good weekend and lets talk Greek next week!
