The widely watched gauge of consumer prices fails to capture the cost of living crisis for many Americans, argues Gene Ludwig.
WD Gann was a prolific student of time. Here’s a bit from Philip J Anderson regarding Gann.
“In his works, Truth of the Stock Tape and Wall Street Stock Selector, W.D. Gann highlighted the profound importance of time. He showed that certain dates aligned with celestial and seasonal cycles often coincide with turning points in market trends. His 1929 forecast, published in November 1928, was not guesswork. It was a precise application of these principles. He identified late August and early September as critical peaks followed by decline, and history proved him correct.
Markets move in cycles too. Gann demonstrated that turning points frequently occur around the equinoxes and solstices: March 21, June 21, September 21, and December 21/22.
The lesson is simple: markets are not random. They follow time and rhythm, just as seasons do. At Property Sharemarket Economics, we combine Gann’s timing methods with the 18.6-year real estate cycle to map out where we are now and what comes next.”

Rent controls, wage controls, and price controls have been tried (and failed) for over 4,000 years.
Why are we still trying them? Seriously? Can we not learn from the past? Apparently some didn’t study history or they think they are smarter than our predessours.
