Bullshift: Optimism Bias in the Financial Advice Business
Bullshift: Optimism Bias in the Financial Advice Business
John De Goey will be talking about a challenge to advisors and investors alike - Optimism Bias. It is just one of many behavioral quirks that we all fall prey to, but one that might do the most harm in the current high-valuation environment. The term he uses to describe the industry's mindset is Bullshift - a cheeky portmanteau that combines the unbridled optimism of bullishness with the industry's unwavering ability to shift attention toward good news - no matter what the circumstances tell us.

How to Balance Fed Juice® and Seasonal Patterns for Metals
How to Balance Fed Juice® and Seasonal Patterns for Metals
This seminar will cover how to balance the daily Fed Juice&#174; signal with the seasonal market patterns of metals. It is well known that seasonal market patterns help investors determine the general tendencies of commodity markets and metals throughout the year. However, it is critical to balance the daily Fed Juice&#174; signal with these seasonal market patterns. In this way, one can determine the relative market bias revealed through divergences that unfold. This relative market bias can give us clues to the strength of current trend action and future price moves.
