In ten years we've gone full circle. After the crash we were witnessing a deflationary tide come in. What a difference a decade makes. Commodities prices are up. Oil is up. Precious metals are up. And perhaps most importantly interest rates are heading higher. The recently passed tax reform bill is also inflationary. You need to look for alternatives. Secured real estate funds a good alternative. At least until the rates that banks are paying start increasing as well. Let's see when that will happen.

It's no exaggeration to say that everything is going on the blockchain. Any ledger which keeps track of ownership rights and title and extremely well suited for migration to the blockchain. The stock market may be the ultimate killer app. Every day there are many busted stock trades that cannot be completed. In addition, there are many companies who's largest shareholder is state abandoned property funds. Billions of dollars in unclaimed securities, dividends, interest payments and more are sitting there. The blockchain is the ultimate equalizer for small shareholders who often get lost in the shuffle.

2018 Will Be Another Double-Digit Year for the Stock Market. But...


2017 was a banner year for the stock market. The Dow gained over 25 percent, the S&P 500 added about 20 percent, and the Nasdaq nearly 30 percent.1 Looking ahead, David is forecasting another double-digit year for the markets in 2018, but there’s a catch: that double-digit number could come in the form of more gains or big losses. It's still too early to tell.

Millennials prefer a socialist, communist or fascist nation. But Tudor Dixon CEO of Lumen Student News is trying to do something about it by providing unbiased news to America’s middle and high school students.

A recent poll by YouGov finds 58% of millennials would prefer to live in “a socialist, communist or fascist nation rather than a capitalistic one,” the Washington Times reports, with a staggering 44% preferring socialism. “This troubling turn highlights widespread historical illiteracy in American society regarding socialism and the systemic failure of our education system to teach students about the genocide, destruction and misery caused by communism since the Bolshevik Revolution one hundred years ago,” Marion Smith, Executive Director of the Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation, said in a statement. Only two years ago, the same group found 36% of millennials have a positive opinion of socialism - so the trend is troubling, to say the least.

Rob Walch started out podcasting in 2004. The field was wide open. He quickly learned that it's all about the content. Invest the time to make a great show and the world will beat a path to your doorstep. And it's been working out that way ever since. He's written two books on the subject that have become bestsellers. While there's a lot of people out there plying the trade, Rob believes that the opportunity to excel is greater than ever. It just takes the right mix of getting the technology right and total commitment to excellent content. Successful podcasting is never an accident of fate, it's the result of hard work and effort.
