Alan
Column Published in syndication July 01, 2026The economic and financial world was recently saddened by the loss of Alan Greenspan, probably the most influential voice on matters of the market in recent memory, at the age of 100. Although his manner was quiet and subdued in public, the impact of his words was volcanic. On one memorable occasion in 1996, his use of the phrase "irrational exuberance" in an evening speech led to an immediate selloff in the Asian markets halfway around the world, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average falling by almost 4% over the ensuing two weeks. (Unfortunately, the effect did not last, and his concern over the emerging dot.com bubble that he was referring to became all too real a few years later.)

Brexit‑10 Years Later
Column Published in syndication June 24, 2026About 10 years ago, voters in the United Kingdom (UK) voted to leave the European Union (EU). Key issues in the decision included a desire for more control and autonomy, with less immigration without the EU's policy of free movement. Proponents thought the UK would not only save billions of pounds in EU membership fees but would also be able to negotiate better trade deals without the EU bureaucracy. After heated debate, the referendum narrowly passed with 52% of voters choosing to leave.
