From Chief Investment Officer Tom Veale,
If we were to attempt to list the number of news distractions vs the movement of stock prices we might have an interesting indicator. Right now we have spy “weather” balloons, earthquakes, volcanos, Super Bowl, Earth core spin reversal, freezing cold, global warming, etc. But do any of these help us decide if the markets are still the best place for our investment dollars?

Good news for investors is seen when we look at current Treasury rates for the 13 Week coupon vs the current CPI Inflation indicator. While savers are still receiving less than the inflation rate in savings yield, we see the CPI level topping out.

Best regards,
Tom Veale
This week we see the MRI unchanged again at 30. The MRI Oscillator is showing +2 or mild upward risk pressure.
