New TGIF Podcast Episode Drop 🎧

Inflation is still a problem. We see it every day. Gas prices jumped 9% in September. Wholesale inflation saw its second hottest month in 15 years. These higher prices have been sending Bond yields higher too. Stress is building up in the system. The Bond Market has been sending the signals. The Bond Market is the smartest of them all.

Energy prices remain elevated as Middle East tensions rise. The Energy ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine was never going to be a thing. Oil flows had been loosening up in the Persian Gulf. They slowed to a near halt this week. Our sources suggest this structural supply shock could last longer than the Market had been anticipating. West Texas Intermediate crude jumped back above $100. The price at the pumps around the country is $4.33 per gallon. That’s the average. It’s $6.22 here in California. Both are back near the highs on the year.

New TGIF Episode Drop! Franco American 🎧

October started off with a bang for investors. The first few days brought a rally, which is generally uncommon this time of year. It also brought extensive heat to the Bay Area, also uncommon. September is historically the worst month for stocks, with weakness continuing into early October. This 10th month on the calendar has seen its fair share of Market bottoms, followed by late-month strength which accelerated through November and December. That’s been the normal course of action. Of course, what’s even normal these days?

Bluespring Wealth - California Fall Quarterly Newsletter is Here: Something Has to Give
Growth, Rates & the AI Economy

We entered the year embarking on a broadening growth phase. Growth was firming domestically and internationally, earnings were strong and broadening, inflation was cooling, and market leadership was expanding beyond a narrow group of names.

The conflict with Iran, disruption surrounding the Strait of Hormuz, and subsequent spike in Oil introduced a reignition of the nagging inflation impulse that markets can’t ignore. Interest rates have marched steadily higher, valuation multiples have compressed, and what had been a relatively clean transition toward stronger global growth has been thrown some pressures to contend with.

As the third quarter closed, the market remains near all-time highs, it’s been more of a sideways consolidation and rotation of markets since Summer. The underlying economy has shown surprisingly little evidence that the geopolitical shock materially altered its trajectory thus far.

The economy remains resilient, but increasingly uneven. Earnings remain quite strong, but interest rates are moving higher. The AI capital expenditure cycle continues to accelerate, while some of the more rate-sensitive areas of the economy are beginning to see the bite that comes with higher rates.

Beneath the headline indexes, market breadth has deteriorated considerably. That leaves us with perhaps the most important question heading toward 2027:

How long can the incredibly strong AI and capital expenditure cycle overpower everything else?

TGIF New Episode Drop: The Future Ain’t What It Used to Be

There was a summit in Washington this week. It was between Presidents Xi and Trump. You probably heard about it. It was President Xi’s first trip to the U.S. in over a decade. Interestingly, he skipped the annual UN General Assembly in New York earlier in the week. His Vice President attended in his stead. The official reason was that the Chinese President was prioritizing the bilateral meeting with the American President. The red carpet was rolled out to him at the White House.

Keeping Life Above Par

With the stunning shores of Lake Tahoe as the backdrop, this adventure was well above par—filled with beautiful views, plenty of laughs, and maybe even a few putts we'd rather not talk about. Golf has a funny way of reminding us that life isn't about playing a perfect round. It's about enjoying the people beside you, celebrating the great shots, laughing through the missed ones, and appreciating the time spent together. The Bluespring Wealth - California Traveling Hat tagged along as usual, collecting another tale from the road and serving as a reminder that life's richest moments are often the simplest ones shared with good company.
