Jobs #'s coming in a little softer than expected. Market soaring. Good job, Fed. You're slowly killing the economy. Markets cheer!


The world is weird ...

Feels like we got a bit of seasonal decomp here...maybe will be revised up, but this is a good report...strong service growth and wages continuing to normalize. These blowout jobs reports have been taking dumps on yields, so feels pretty nice on an early Friday morning...

My personal favorite is when a company beats earning numbers, stock starts to moon, and then...boom, bottom falls out..

Forward guidance is king these days. Any measure of realism and out comes the hammer.

I always look to see where the growth is. If it's all government sector ... well, that's not good.

With "the end of globalism" (as prognosticated by Peter Zeihan), I'm truly looking for growth in the manufacturing sector over the next few years. Sadly, that's inflationary. What a conundrum!

Honestly it is a good indication of management IYAM. You just don’t want to buy going into earnings knowing a train is likely coming down the tracks.

But consistent earnings surprises is something I look for. Yes I know it isn’t exactly the same thing.
