Big Questions (Part 1)

By Michael Johnston January 26, 2018 Evergreen Virtual Advisor - Gavekal

Taking Back the Internet

By Michael Johnston January 5, 2018 Evergreen Virtual Advisor - Evergreen

On December 14th, 2017 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) ruled in favor of overturning Obama-era net neutrality regulations by a vote of 3-2. While not necessarily underreported, the ruling was, in many ways, overshadowed in the financial media by two parallel events: tax reform and the Bitcoin bubble. Case in point, we have used these pages to share our view on both of these topics over the past several weeks, while completely ignoring the FCC’s landmark decision.

The Savings Glut’s Long Life and Slow Death

By Michael Johnston October 27, 2017 Evergreen Virtual Advisor - Gavekal

Ben Bernanke popularized the term “global saving glut” in March 2005 when speaking to the Virginia Association of Economists in Richmond, Va. In his statement, he argued that several forces had created a high volume of global savings and that this “saving glut” helped explain the many years of historically low yields. And that was long before the Fed and its fellow central banks, through their coordinated actions, engineered the virtual extinction of interest rates!
