Vaccine Passports: Just the Ticket or a Ticket to Nowhere?

Mauldin Economics

Disasters, wars, and pandemics should be times in which everyone works together against the common threat. We’re all in the same boat, so to speak. Except we’re not in the same boat. Some have been able to work at home, have food delivered, and largely avoid the threat. Others—including those who made it possible for the first group to stay safe—remained exposed.

Vaccine Boom and Bust

Mauldin Economics

By the numbers, the US looks much better than it did than a few months ago. Jobless claims dropped to their lowest levels of the pandemic; COVID-19 vaccine shots went into arms at a record rate. But we’ve seen how this goes. The virus spreads in waves that recede and then return, often stronger. Some areas of the US are experiencing their fourth wave of coronavirus cases.

A Random Walk

The Irrelevant Investor

A week ago, stocks fell ~1% on news of President Biden's tax proposal. Now a 1% decline isn't newsworthy, but considering how quiet the market has been over the last few weeks, this was a rather noisy day. And then for the lolz, on Friday the market erased all of the prior's day declines and then some. I guess I shouldn't be surprised. The returns on a single day tell you nothing about what will happen the next day.* To verify this, I asked Nick Maggiulli to run some numbers.
