The Simple Accountant

Implications of the Slowing Global Economy

Fine analysis Mr. Shedlock, thank you.

Armed with this information, it is not difficult for the individual investor to position her/his portfolio for the near-intermediate term future. It would seem that not only treasuries but high quality corporate bonds and equities with solid dividend paying ability are the order of the day.

The Simple Accountant never fights the trend, and employs the KISS principle in portfolio management, despite abhorring Gene Simmons. This approach misses the occasional home run, but produces a winning record by stringing together singles and doubles. (dislosure - The Simple Accountant is neither a baseball fan nor an admirer of George Will, except when suffering the occasional bout of insomnia, but finds baseball metaphors apropos in many facets of life)
