charles: i always said sometimes stocks with low valuations have low valuations for a reason but you touched on something i think is sort of ironic, and the article did as well, because a lot of folks that come on the show, i talked about every 10 years or so there is a new leadership group. > i think you need to pay attention to that. i think you really have to get in there to look because just because a stock's price has come down does not mean it's a cheap valuation for the stock relative to the market. different sectors pulling back and then doing better. it really kind of fits into the narrative of a rolling recession. you can't just say these did well last time. you have to look at these stocks individually.

we'll look also at the technicals, find a level we're comfortable with, couple percentage points, two percentage points below whatever the level is. based sometimes on average true range calculations.


we do individual work on all positions, in terms of the volatility of the stock, not necessarily the volatility of the market but of that particular issue that we're buying. for us it is technical for the most part. What is the relationship to the potential target you're looking for until you put on a new position? > fantastic question. i guess you're not a fan of month to month core cpe services less housing as the gauge we should be looking at? > well it is not that i'm not a fan of it. what is interesting you call it a made-up inflation gauge. > now you posted a chart of the fed's favorite impatience gauge. that was the basis why he said the financial conditions weren't overly tight although wall street kind of thought the other way because the stock market was up and there's the disconnect between the two. he is worried about the 5% of the american public that cannot come up with $1000 save national emergency. the fact of the matter jay powell is looking at the larger picture. i'm center of my universe and wall street is the center of its universe and thinks wall street revolves around it. is wall street too focused on what fed does to the market? > wall street always done.
