PepsiCo Now All About Positive Nutrition

October 26, 2017 By Dick Young

The Wall Street Journal lays out PepsiCo’s strategy to change the company’s mix of food offerings to emphasize positive nutrition.

October 25, 2017 By Jeremy Jones, CFA

Norway's $880 billion sovereign wealth fund is being urged to invest more of its portfolio in stocks. Who might be urging the world's largest fund to boost its stock allocation more than seven years into a bull market? The Norwegian government. According to a government-commissioned report, the Norwegian sovereign wealth fund should invest 70% of its assets in stocks, up from 60% today, which itself is up from 40% in 2007. Why has the Norwegian government gone googly-eyed for stocks? The Financial Times offers some insight. “With a higher share of equities the expected return will … [Read more...]

October is Cyber Security Month: Advice from Fidelity

October 25, 2017 By E.J. Smith

October is National Cyber Security Awareness Month, which I discovered logging in to my account this morning at Fidelity Investments. I thought you’d like to read their recommendations. The easiest part of protecting yourself is choosing a rugged, unique password. By rugged I mean a password that isn't something easily guessed by a hacker's word-list. Examples of easily guessed passwords that are used often are things like "password," "1234," "default," or "1111." Read more below from Fidelity about protecting your accounts with a strong password.

“Profound Implications for the Future of Wind Power”

October 18, 2016 By Dick Young

Beyond the transmission lines and the nearly statewide grid, Texas has plenty of unoccupied … [Read more...]

A Windfall in the Bond Market

October 18, 2016 By Jeremy Jones, CFA

Four interest rate hikes were the Fed's expectations in January, but a stock market correction scared off both the hawks and the doves. The Fed is now trying to signal that December is the next time it will hike rates, but it has cried wolf so many times, that markets no longer believe a hike is coming. This timid approach to interest rate policy has robbed many investors of interest income, but one segment of the bond market has defied the will of the Fed has … [Read more...]
