This is Flashback Friday is from episode275 published last August 29, 2012.

While the last several years have seen huge losses for most investors in stocks, it has provided some valuable insights and allowed development of new concepts for stock investing. Jason Hartman talks with Dr. Chris Kacher and Gil Morales, principles and managing directors of Virtue of Selfish Investing, LLC and MoKa Investors, LLC, regarding their take on the markets, particularly commodities.

Chris and Gil explain their investment philosophy and concepts born out of frustration with other market strategies failing, relating how they were able to get through the market crash and the continued instability. One of the concepts is the Pocket Pivot, a favorable entry point in a stock before it breaks out of the stock base. Gil and Chris also share their outlook on stocks, commodities, currencies and inflation.

Dr. Chris Kacher is a stock investor and strategist with a background in the nuclear sciences. He is a co-founder of a stock advisory service, VirtueOfSelfishInvesting.com. Chris Kacher is a protégé of William O’Neil. He is known for achieving a total return of 18,241% during the period of 1996 to 2002 which he describes in his book Trade Like an O’Neil Disciple: How We Made 18,000% in the Stock Market co-authored with Gil Morales. Prior to his career as a stock trader, Dr. Chris Kacher pursued an education in the nuclear sciences at the University of California, Berkeley.

He won a Charles D. Coryell Award while being undergraduate. As a graduate student he contributed to the confirmation of the existence of Seaborgium and a synthesis of an atom of Darmstadtium. He received a Doctor of Nuclear Chemistry degree in 1995. In 2009, Chris Kacher released a debut album of his piano compositions Teardrop Rain under a stage name of Christian Casher.

Jason and Edward Dowd discussed the book "Cause Unknown: The Epidemic of Sudden Deaths" and its focus on the increase in all-cause mortality during the pandemic, as well as the group life insurance policies provided to employees at fortune 500 companies and mid-sized companies. They also discussed the significant increase in excess mortality rates among the insured population, particularly in the age group of 5 to 44, and the potential link between vaccine mandates and the forced vaccination of employed individuals. The conversation also touched on the economic impact of the influx of immigrants, the potential for a recession in the US, and the deflationary effects of tariffs.

This Flashback Friday is from episode 283 published last October 26, 2012. 

Between 1980 and 2000, the wealth of our nation grew enormously. Interest rates dropped, dot com businesses grew, and then the housing market was rocketing. We then went into a tricky period where overall net worth grew a bit until the dot com crash; the middle class was sustained to some degree by the housing boom, and then dropped sharply with the housing crash. Dr. H. Woody Brock, President and Founder of Strategic Economic Decisions and author of American Gridlock, joins Jason Hartman for an in-depth explanation of the financial health of our nation across social classes.

Dr. Brock discusses the nation overall and then breaks it down into the rich, the middle class, and the poor. The distribution of wealth have left the poor worse off and the rich very well off, as well as shrinking the middle class, but as Dr. Brock explains, looking at the distribution of consumption, the poor and middle classes are in a better position than when looking at the distribution of income.

Dr. Brock also expounds on QE3, the Federal Reserve actions, bank reserves, de-leveraging, and more. He wraps up on the subject of his book, American Gridlock: Why the Right and Left are Both Wrong.

Founder of Strategic Economic Decisions (SED), Inc., Dr. Horace “Woody” Brock specializes in applications of the modern Economics of Uncertainty (originally developed and championed by Kenneth J. Arrow of Stanford University) to forecasting and risk assessment in the international economy and its asset markets.

Holder of five academic degrees, Dr. Brock earned his B.A., M.B.A., and M.S. (mathematics) from Harvard University, and his M.A. and Ph.D. from Princeton University (mathematical economics and political philosophy). He was elected an Andrew Mellon Foundation Bicentennial Fellow of the Aspen Institute in 1976. Dr. Brock studied under Kenneth J. Arrow, Professor of Economics, and John C. Harsanyi, Professor of Economics, University of California, Berkeley, both winners of the Nobel Prize in Economics. Dr. Brock founded SED in 1985, and in doing so was sponsored by Fidelity, GE Capital, IBM Pension Fund, and twenty other institutions looking for a much deeper level of analysis of interest rates and the economy.

In its research, SED has focused on apprehending ongoing structural changes in the economy and markets to help clients avoid the pitfalls of illegitimately extrapolating the past into the future. In this regard, Dr. Brock has worked closely with Professor Mordecai Kurz of Stanford University in developing the new theory of Rational Beliefs that is now replacing the classical theory of “Efficient Markets”. This new theory explains for the first time the way in which history rhymes but does not repeat itself.

They explore the potential benefits of combining 1031 exchanges with Section 121 exclusions for primary residences and highlighted the importance of thorough research and understanding of risks when considering pooled investments. The conversation also touched on potential legislative changes, the growth of REITs in the 1031 market, and the significance of using qualified intermediaries for successful exchanges.

Then, Jason and Josip Rupena of Milo.io discuss the intersection of cryptocurrency and real estate, with Josip explaining the concept of tokenizing real estate and cryptocurrency financing. Josip's company, Milo, offers 100% financing for real estate, including owner-occupied and non-owner-occupied properties. They also provide financing against cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum. Josip mentioned that their customers initially sought financing for home improvements and down payment financing, leading to the expansion of their product offerings. The discussion ended with Jason asking about the terms of the cryptocurrency loans, to which Josip responded by highlighting the three major aspects their crypto mortgage aims to solve.

This Flashback Friday is from episode 337, published last September 6, 2013.

Doug Brunt is the former CEO of Authentium and author of, "GHOSTS OF MANHATTAN." In his new book, he transports readers back to the extravagant times before Bear Stearns collapsed, exposing a culture with boundless bonuses, where the company expense account was routinely used for bar tabs, visits to strip clubs, and worse. He even throws in some comical stories and describes some of them. Brunt offers a withering view of life on Wall Street from the perspective of an unhappy insider, run-down by the corrosive lifestyle which is jeopardizing his marriage, who is too hooked on the money to find a way out. 

Brunt is married to FOX News anchor Megyn Kelly, who has helped him with his books. Brunt describes their relationship and why he gave up a lucrative career as an Internet security entrepreneur.

Jason talks about the increase in customs revenue under Trump's policies, highlighting a significant rise from $4 billion in 2015 to $22.3 billion, though he noted it would not solve government debt issues. He predicted a likely decrease in interest rates due to the disappearance of the inflation threat, which could lead to a surge in home buyers, potentially wiping out current inventory if rates drop by half a percent. Jason emphasized the importance of focusing on fundamentals and staying in the market long-term for success, even during a "boring" time in real estate with moderate appreciation and flat rents. He also mentioned opportunities in note investing for high returns and encouraged listeners to explore this option.

Then Jason and Paul Moore of  WellingsCapital.com discuss the concept of "boring investors" who focus on long-term, passive investing strategies that prioritize consistent returns and personal fulfillment over speculative trading and quick profits. They explore how successful investors like Warren Buffett demonstrate the benefits of careful, methodical investing through steady growth and avoidance of emotional decision-making, while emphasizing the importance of diversification within proven asset classes like real estate. They conclude with reflections on legacy investing and social impact, highlighting the value of disciplined, boring investment approaches that prioritize long-term happiness and meaningful contributions to society.
