False Alarm on climate change is pushing us to spend trillions of dollars every year. Yet, it will fix only 1% of the problem. Bad deal.

Climate change is a real challenge and we should fix it. But smartly.

@HalftimeReport The interest in the term recession, while high now, not the highest in the last 5 years. https://t.co/QYg8Stoxqb

The financial markets rose this week after a so-so jobs report fell short of expectations, tempering inflation and rate increase fears. #financialmarkets #weeklyupdate

Another volatile week started with inflation fears and Fed action fears while ending the week a little easier made for a mixed week this week. #financialmarkets #weeklyupdate

Inflation fears sparked an early week sell-off followed by a late-week recovery, leaving all of the major indexes down for the week. #inflationfears #financialmarketweek

Over 1500 companies reported earnings this week and shrugged off a poor April employment report and a downward revision to the March report helped propel 2 of the 3 major indexes up for the week. #financialmarkets #weeklyupdate

A huge earnings report week featuring blow-out quarters from Google, Amazon and Facebook were not enough to push the markets further this week. #financialmarkets #weeklyupdate

[Kurt Tietjen @HPResearch]

Mixed sector performance was not enough to keep the major indexes from a small decline this week, checked by a rumored change in capital gains tax rates. Big tech earnings next week #marketupdate #weeklyupdate

A strong beginning to earnings season plus good economic news equals another record-setting week for the financial markets. #financialmarkets #marketupdate

[Kurt Tietjen @HPResearch]

Anticipation of a strong earnings season, a dovish Fed & a pending post-pandemic reopening fueled the financial markets to several new highs this week as all of the major indexes and all but one sector grew. #financialmarkets #weeklyupdate

Another strong week for the financial markets, could be ignoring some risks facing the rest of the year. The Dow continues to lead the way. #financialmarkets #marketupdate
https://t.co/5IGQn4Mlv2

[Kurt Tietjen @HPResearch]

All of the major indexes increased while 2 of the 11 sectors registered declines. The 10-year yield settled a bit this week now with an eye towards new taxes and what that may do to the markets. #financialmarkets #marketupdate
https://t.co/AYP08onX2x

[Kurt Tietjen @HPResearch]

The major indexes all closed the week down largely due to the 10-year yield increasing to 1.73% which drove the Financial and Real Estate sectors down. #financialmarkets #marketupdate
https://t.co/nylR5Wg0x4

[Kurt Tietjen @HPResearch]

All of the major indexes rose this week in spite of the 10-yr yield continuing to climb. The Nasdaq so far this year has lagged the other indexes. #financialmarkets #marketupdate
https://t.co/fzgeen3SyK

[Kurt Tietjen @HPResearch]

The market could be going thru a change. The US 10-year closed the week at nearly 1.6%; the Nasdaq is negative for the year, the Dow Industrials are the leading indexes for the year, the Energy sector continued its climb. #financialmarkets #weeklyupdate
https://t.co/ILVHHyzYeh

[Kurt Tietjen @HPResearch]

Stocks were under pressure, largely from worries that the 10-year Treasury yield broke through 1.5%. The bright spot continues to be the energy sector. #financialmarkets #weeklystockupdate
https://t.co/eaCoTjGcP2

[Kurt Tietjen @HPResearch]

The financial markets were mixed at least partially due to a questionable unemployment report on Thursday and a warning by Walmart in their earnings call. Energy lead the way again this week. #financialmarkets #weeklyupdate
https://t.co/0JGNqwHxIY

[Kurt Tietjen @HPResearch]

The major indexes continued to move higher with the Nasdaq now up 7.1% for the year. A heavy earnings week and a fast increasing Energy Sector highlighted the week.
