Buckle-up, little Buckaroos!!!
Coming up on #KTLA: Last week the NY Fed acknowledged that U.S. companies and consumers pay virtually all of President Trump's tariffs. This week the WSJ is reporting that U.S. businesses are done swallowing higher costs and will raise prices

Coming up on #KTLA: What's new in Crypto Land? Bitcoin is now worth about half its peak from last October. And one top analyst is warning it could fall as much as 85% more

Coming up on #KTLA: After months of swallowing much of the costs of President Trump's import taxes -- the highest such levy since the Great Depression -- U.S. businesses are increasingly raising prices for customers

I’ve been a bit under the weather these past few days. Luckily I’ve had expert medical attention from Dr Teddy and Dr Lupin. Looking forward to returning to the airwaves tomorrow

Happy Birthday dear Teddy!
12 years ago today, Teddy joined our family. Here he is on his first day in his new home, about 20 pounds too light after weeks at a shelter. (The cage, which we had been advised to use for his transition, lasted all of an hour)

After today's segment, a colleague asked why people buy crypto. I explained it like this: You walk into a casino just as someone is hitting a jackpot on slots. What do you do? You sit down and play slots. That's the crypto market
Coming up on #KTLA: What's new in Crypto Land? Oh, nothing much, except a huge drop in Bitcoin and shares of crypto firms being wiped out. It's hard for Ponzi schemes when the Greater Fool Theory stops working
