Green investment advisor (outdoors blog, click here). Wednesday, January 15, 2014. The Amazing Shrinking Budget Deficit.

At its peak during the financial crisis, the deficit was $1.4 trillion, according to the U.S. Department of Treasury. In the last fiscal year, which ended on Sept. 30, 2013, the deficit was $680 billion. The Bull Market Continues.

Luxenberg.Info: Too Much Pessimism?

Green investment advisor (outdoors blog, click here). Tuesday, December 11, 2012. Pessimism is pervasive. Many people believe the economic future is bleak. Perversely, investment strategist Richard Bernstein believes that attitude augurs well for future stock market performance. Housing is beginning to recover as is the job market.

Green investment advisor (outdoors blog, click here). Monday, November 26, 2012. The End is Near. Tax Moves to Take Now. Big changes may come to income taxes next year.

Rates for ordinary income, dividends or capital gains could rise, perhaps even substantially. Some deductions could be curtailed. Inheritance or other taxes could be revamped. The End is Near.
