Happy November! Welcome back to the DQYDJ Weekender, the least scheduled and most random series on DQYDJ... and probably all the sites you regularly read. There's no substantive post today. I'll hold off on any new posts until after the US elections. But I do have some updates for you all – I hope you […]
It's been a minute since our last Weekender. Unfortunately, since then, tragedy hit our family directly – I lost my grandmother to COVID a couple of weeks ago. It's the story you've sadly heard before – supposedly, a staff member who later tested positive for COVID-19 brought it into her nursing home. They had been locked […]

When this is all over, I hope to go back […]
Hey folks! Welcome back to the Weekender. Once again, this one will be dominated by COVID thoughts – skip if you're overloaded; I'll be posting more real content in the coming weeks.

Obviously – besides the frequent trolling there […]

Happy Father's Day everyone! Links We Liked Priceonomics had a nice post estimating how much people are pulling in from the so-called 'gig economy'. Amazon is acquiring Whole Foods for $13.7 Billion. Insert your own joke here: ("Who among us has not spent $13.7 Billion at Whole Foods?") With Amazon acquiring Whole Foods and Walmart […]
We lost my grandfather last week - a great man and a true original. He had unfortunately been battling a strange blood disorder for quite some time. My grandfather was an inspiration to us all, and I'll greatly miss him - RIP. I hope I do you proud, Papa. We'll be back with new articles […]
That's our way of announcing I updated our main datasets on the Dow Jones, S&P 500, and 10-Year constan maturity treasuries.
