But it’s critical that you understand why the market isn’t seeing the value you do. The back and forth that goes on in the investment process helps you get at that.

The time is now. Now we can market in real time. Now we can market instantly.

When I ask people to contemplate selflessness, the sometimes react as if I've asked them to put their house on the market or give away all their money.

Focus instead on those things you want least to happen and on what your response will be.

When I say the economy is shrinking, it's the economy of the 99%, the people who have to work for a living and depend on earning money for what they can spend.

So the stock market's doubled, the bond market's gone way up, and the 1% are earning more money than ever before, but the 99% are not. They're having to pay the 1%.

A higher IOER rate encourages banks to raise the interest rates they charge, putting upward pressure on market interest rates regardless of the level of reserves in the banking sector.
