Hussman Funds Weekly Market Comment
Last week I wrote about my ten favourite fund managers letters. Writing about those letters made me realise how reliant I have become on RSS feeds and email. One of my favorites from that list don’t offer an RSS or email option. Consequently a month can fly past before I remember to check the site.
Well no more I say! To ensure I read the invaluable Hussman Funds Weekly Market Comment and to provide it via RSS feed and hopefully via email, I will link John P Hussman’s weekly comments here.

“The stock market remains relatively overbought in an unfavorable Market Climate, which continues to pose substantial downside risk… There’s a relatively high degree of complacency here, reflected by the suppressed level of implied volatility and the general consensus that bad news has been priced into stocks…
In short, I remain convinced that the market has not yet priced in the recognition that the U.S. economy is in a recession. To the extent that such recognition hasn’t occurred yet, there’s a risk that significant downside will be realized at the point that investors capitulate to that view.
The residual (and I believe, misplaced) confidence that the U.S. has dodged a recession, coupled with a growing recognition that foreign economies are turning lower, has triggered a burst of surprising strength in the U.S. dollar over the past couple of weeks.” Read more at Hussman Funds
