1 Less Thing to Worry About This Black Friday November 26, 2021 Bauman Daily, Best of Series
Inflation has been on everyone’s mind this year. But don’t worry about it today: “Black Friday” is about resting, recovering … and pursuing all those sales that come up ... if that’s your preference. But I don’t think you should worry all that much about inflation after today either. My views on inflation don’t come from cable network talking heads or political websites.
Find Balance in Stocks, Not Your Stomach November 24, 2021 Bauman Daily, Trading Strategies, U.S. Economy
But the notion of finding balance elsewhere does have its appeal … especially in my retirement portfolio. That’s because this has been a year marked by extremes for investors. There’s evidence of that everywhere. Valuations are either the most expensive or the cheapest ever, depending on where you look...
Let’s Talk Turkey: The Real Inflation Villains November 23, 2021 Bauman Daily, News, U.S. Economy
One thing I like about Thanksgiving is the opportunity it presents for stimulating conversation. I’m not talking about heated political debates. Over the years, I’ve figured out a clever way to avoid this entirely. No, I don’t disinvite people I disagree with. I simply prime myself with a couple of interesting, but little-known facts. I wait for the right moment, then drop the bomb … gently, of course. And just to make sure there’s no blowback, I focus on issues where everyone will agree. Republican or Democrat, it doesn’t matter. So, in service of your Thanksgiving table, allow me to offer 2021’s Bauman’s Diversionary Topic™…

Trigger Warning: Bernie’s Socialism for the Rich November 19, 2021 Bauman Daily, News, U.S. Economy
Considerations of subsidy, cost and tax dominate public debate around U.S. social spending. People like Bernie Sanders and AOC want the government to pay more of the excessive costs of life in the United States, which are far higher than our peers. But that doesn’t address why these things are so expensive in the first place — and why they will get even more expensive if the government starts to subsidize them. Building on my longstanding interest in market structure and public policy, in today’s video — sure to be controversial! — I explain why the most progressive approach to solving America’s problems is in some ways the most conservative one.
2 Plays to Profit on Those Bare Necessities November 17, 2021 Bauman Daily, Investment Opportunities, U.S. Economy
Refresh… Refresh… Refresh… That sums up a couple hours I spent on Walmart’s website the other night. The rumor is that they were restocking Xboxes for online purchases, and I’m hellbent on snatching one as a Christmas gift for my boys.

Opportunity Alert: Get Ready for the Shipping Revolution, Part 2 November 16, 2021 Bauman Daily, Economy, Investment Opportunities
When I finally found it, my shipment was standing on an enormous wooden pallet in the middle of what looked like a junkyard 20 miles outside Washington, D.C. That was as far as they were going to take it. “They” being the shipping company I’d hired to bring some things from Cape Town to Washington, where I’d taken on a one-year consultancy at the World Bank. The freight forwarder in Cape Town had neglected to offer the option to have things delivered door to door. Oops...
Disney and PayPal Disappoint: Time to Prepare for the Worst? November 15, 2021 Bauman Daily, Trading Strategies, U.S. Economy
And just like that... investors are getting nervous again. High-flying stocks such as Disney and PayPal disappointed on earnings and pulled the market down last week. Whether the volatility lasts or not, it's a good reminder that you should always have a plan B when it comes to investing. In today’s video, Ted and Clint give you six strategies to hedge against a market correction so that you can stay ahead no matter what.
Uber, Lyft and DoorDash: Sell These “Dead Men Walking” Stocks November 12, 2021 Bauman Daily, Investing, Trading Strategies
Investors in companies like Uber, Lyft and DoorDash have been victims of a “bezzle.” That’s when a con man has managed to take your money … but YOU don’t know it yet. In today’s video, Ted explains why these so called “flywheel platform” companies can never be profitable without breaking basic laws of economic and social fairness — not to mention many laws. The worst part is that these companies have known this all along, but as part of a strategy to divert everyone’s attention from that, they have subsidized an entire generation’s lifestyle. Based on recent market action, that is almost certainly about to come to an end.
Reality vs. Metaverse: Which World Holds More Profits for You? November 10, 2021 Bauman Daily, Investing, Technology
Twenty-five years from now, we’ll escape the harsh realities of the real world using a special headset to tap into a virtual simulation called “the OASIS.”
We’ll be able to visit different worlds and interact with anyone, but we’ll neglect our physical world. It’ll decay. Infrastructure will crumble. Buildings will become dilapidated. The contrast between the utopian virtual world versus the physical one will be stark.
