Correlations
With nothing to do on a cold Melbourne morning other than freeze to death I thought I would dust off this old spreadsheet on correlations. These are the ASX20 plus the All Ords and the S&P500. Correlations less than 1 are in red and those greater than 0.6 are in blue. Make of it what…

His primary task is to…

The New Nikkei Bear Market?
I am always intrigued as to the definitions of when a new bear market begins. Most pundits claim that when a market falls 20% then it is in the grip of the bear. I am not so sure. For example if you held a stock at $10 and it went to $8 would you consider…
Kodak’s Problem Child
I have written about Kodak before and its failure to adapt to the disruption caused by its own invention and this piece by Kenny Suleimanagich is a neat little synopsis of how it all went wrong. See also Adapt by Tim Harford.
Mark Blyth: Austerity – The History of a Dangerous Idea
I always find it remarkable that so much public policy is generated with at best a modicum of half arsed evidence or at worst no evidence at all. To me austerity seems to fall into the latter camp of no evidence at all. There seems to be very little evidence for the majority of economic…
