]]> Trump/Musk split but record wealth levels for us https://www.miltonpj.net/2025/06/08/trump-musk-fall-out-record-holdings-for-us/ Sun, 08 Jun 2025 15:36:11 +0000 https://www.miltonpj.net/?p=11854 What strange times we enjoy. Elon Musk and President Trump seem to have fallen-out (it was only a matter of time perhaps?) and all Musk entities are threatened with financial consequences and Tesla falls by the most in one day… we don’t have any or funds which hold them, so we can look-on from the […]

All good here! https://www.miltonpj.net/2025/05/24/crisis-what-crisis-we-are-doing-well/ Sat, 24 May 2025 13:13:53 +0000 https://www.miltonpj.net/?p=11832 Before anything else, have a really lovely Bank Holiday weekend. I shall be helping at Braunton Fair on Monday and catching-up tomorrow… Crisis? What crisis? Could be the question our investors pose about the recent Trumpian-created volatility as we seemed to sail-through unscathed and emerging from the other side seemingly in better shape than when […]

Gold has come-off its top – an over-extended spike it might […]

]]> Growth, debt and the Titanic… https://www.miltonpj.net/2025/04/30/are-trump-tariffs-akin-to-titanic-moment/ Wed, 30 Apr 2025 12:08:05 +0000 https://www.miltonpj.net/?p=11803 I was reminded recently that on 14 April it was the anniversary of the Titanic hitting the iceberg, in 1912. Had it hit it head-on, it would not have sunk. Are there analogies here for President Donald Trump’s tariff announcements…? This is either the fact that 90% of the problem isn’t obvious or maybe that […]

]]> Inflation slows but is it the calm before the storm? https://www.miltonpj.net/2025/04/23/inflation-slow-calm-before-the-storm/ Wed, 23 Apr 2025 09:00:00 +0000 https://www.miltonpj.net/?p=11811 While the news inflation slowed in March to 2.6% is welcome and an interest rate cut is widely expected next month, it may simply be a brief glow of light to ward off the spectre of ‘stagflation’ a little longer. The recent quakes from Trump’s tariffs have subsided for now and some analysts are upbeat […]

]]> Trump tariffs – don’t panic https://www.miltonpj.net/2025/04/04/trump-tariffs-hit-markets-hard-dont-panic/ Fri, 04 Apr 2025 15:33:11 +0000 https://www.miltonpj.net/?p=11766 This is not long after my last missive but clearly President Trump’s tariffs are creating temporary havoc. However, it is very disconcerting and especially when a whole year’s ‘normal’ returns for investors can be wiped out in just a day’s movement on a market. No-one alive has faced tariff announcements of this nature. The last […]

]]> US wobbling subsides – for now https://www.miltonpj.net/2025/03/23/value-elsewhere-as-us-shares-wobble/ Sun, 23 Mar 2025 13:14:50 +0000 https://www.miltonpj.net/?p=11732 Wobbles in the States saw the Nasdaq lose 4% in one day – not much in one sense but the biggest one-day loss since October 2022, all the same. An 890 point drop on the Dow worried people too. Are these very dramatic changes a sign of negativity to come for the US? Remember as […]

I suppose we should have been expecting it, after such a positive run and after all we have said about overblown […]
