Richard Duncan interview with Gordon T. Long of Macro Analytics (video) (LINK) [I was also in touch with Richard over the weekend in regards to the coupon code 'valueinvestingworld' that he generously allows readers of this blog to use for a discount to his Macro Watch newsletter. Previously, that code knocked the first year price from $500 down to $250, and then the recurring (second year and beyond) price went back up to $500. Now going forward, if you use the 'valueinvestingworld' code when signing up, the recurring price will remain at $250 per year for every year that you remain a subscriber. For more on Macro Watch, see my posts HERE and HERE.]

I think the majority opinion among value investors is that it isn't worth the time to pay attention to macroeconomics, and that it is better to just focus on individual companies and ignore the bigger picture. I think that's probably mostly true,...

Hussman Weekly Market Comment: When Paper Wealth Vanishes (LINK)
There’s not a single market cycle in the historical record where the ratio of market capitalization to corporate gross value added (GVA) did not fall to about half the level that we observe today (or lower). Our view is that the level of the S&P 500 today is currently higher than the level investors will observe a decade from today, but dividends should make up the difference to provide an expected total return of roughly zero. In a zero return world, some may see this hypervaluation as “fair” – and those investors are free to call stocks “fairly valued relative to interest rates.” But the prospective 10-year return on the S&P 500, from current price levels, is still likely to be zero based on the most reliable valuation measures we identify.PBS has a new series called First Peoples that premieres June 24th (LINK)
