FMLS put ont the numbers for August pretty fast. Shockingly fast… So, I was able to get the market report out faster than usual. Take a look. It is mixed news. July turned out stronger than expected, but August preliminary numbers are a little weaker than I’d like.

… the August Market Report (covering July preliminary numbers and June final numbers) is up as well.

Do you remember those words from grade school? The big kid from the back of the class shot a spitball at the teacher, and so everyone got the same punishment. There were 29 kids in the class that didn’t do anything, but they still got the same treatment. What’s worse is that the kid that [...]
This is not inspired by Ken “not the meteorologist” Cook, but I did read his post a little earlier, Did The Media Cause This, Fuel This, or Just Report It? That said, I did mention this post in the comments there, because they are related… Great minds think alike… ours do too.
