FarrCast Episode 12

It's the beginning of the year, and the markets are melting up. Michael and regular Kenny Polcari discuss how the fundamentals and the technicals interact, and where the momentum is taking us. The central banks around the world are gradually changing their policies, and Michael & Kenny explain what changes could bring to the markets. For all of the numbers, fear is the enemy of the long-term investor.  

Matt Leffingwell joins to talk about the week on the Hill -- and the possibility of compromise on DACA. Congress, both parties, are using the Dreamers as a political point, but immigration has deep implications for the economy. It's not just politics -- it's math.

Michael welcomes Niloo Howe to the FarrCast, who explains to us how the social norms, and lack thereof, on the Internet feed the emerging threats in cybersecurity. Security has been an afterthought as we seek faster computers and more convenience and that means we are vulnerable. Niloo points out though that the human element is always the weakest element, and talks about what to do when, not if, you are breached.
