  Things Brad Has Built

  I built this for my kids in the backyard. It was definitely a hit.

   

  During the COVID shut-down, I decided to remodel our closet (despite basically no experience whatsoever doing anything of the sort / no construction experience). It turned out pretty well!

  Some of Brad’s Thoughts on the Stock Market

• Market timing is possible (occasionally) by measuring the aggregate open market purchasing activity of market insider.
• (Published 6/19/2022) The S&P 500 is likely a buy at 3,670, as an abnormal number of market insiders purchased shares of their own companies’ stocks.
• The yield curve can forecast more than just recessions; it can also forecast times of extremely low market risk.
