We also wanted to revisit one of Brogan's recent market calls in which he
predicted the recent market decline as well as the US bond rate with a stunning
degree of accuracy. We welcome Brogan's addition to our line up of analysts and
believe that his knowledge and savvy market calls will bolster our ability to advise
investors and protect their assets.
The following is an excerpt of Brogan's column published on June 10, 2011 and
sent out to subscribers. An archived copy can be found HERE. In light of recent
events, we revisit the call so that you can see that Brogan made a very precise and
accurate prediction.
Today, many are looking for the proverbial next shoe to fall." The easiest
way to do this is to find out where risk is being downplayed or hidden.
Once you discover where the risk is being removed from the market, you
can spot the latest bubble.

In 2007, the destruction of the housing market-- with its liar loans, no docloans, 2/28 ARMs, CDOs, CDSs, and all the other bubble accoutrements--
was a little easier to understand because real estate, at its heart, is an asset
class that is tangible and transparent. But when it comes to understanding
other asset classes subject to bubbles-- like Commodities, Fixed Income,
and/or derivatives, most investors are lost in translation.
Indeed, even professionals typically deal in specific asset classes so unless
they are a generalist they usually follow a herd mentality when it comes to
their own trades. One must understand the risk involved in different asset
classes and how they relate to each other in order to navigate through aglobal market which provides numerous opportunities for bubbles and
black swans.
We are closing in on 2 years of this Bull market and we may not have
much further to go, and by the looks of todays market and new IPOs like
Linkedin trading at 30x sales it may be time to look for cover. In the current
investing environment, managers are concerned with non-correlated
assets-- an asset class which does not go down when the S&P 500 goes
down. The key to contrarian investing is to start to leave the party just asothers are starting to arrive. The best place is cash, but this doesnt pay to
stay, so do you venture into Bonds for yield?
The bond market has been on a nice up trend in price since February of
this year. This is good news if your Ben Bernanke because the general
investor is now doing the heavy lifting for the Fed. But one needs to be
concerned over the debt-ceiling debate now on the big screen in
Washington. If this spooks the market, you could see a drop in bond prices
as the weak hands close out of their short term trade with a gain. You
could see a 6 or 7% handle and a attractive price if this were to happen in
the upcoming days and weeks.
