I consider myself as a Financial Engineer with an engineering degree from Georgia Tech and a Master of Science degree from Brooklyn Poly. I have my own methods of technical analysis that includes proprietary models. My market commentary and investment strategies help trading desks, high net worth and institutional accounts in their proprietary trading activity including managing market volatility. In 1972 I began my career in the financial services industry trading U.S. Treasury securities in the primary dealer community. I became the first long bond trader for Bache in 1978, and formed the Government Bond Department at LF Rothschild in 1981, helping establish that firm as a primary dealer in 1986. I formed Global Market Consultants Ltd in 1988. While operating GMC I was the U.S. Treasury Strategist at Smith Barney 1991-1995, was Chief Financial Strategist at William R. Hough in St. Petersburg, Florida 1997-1999, and was Chief Market Strategist at Joseph Stevens 1999-2008. In 2005 through 2007 I wrote columns on RealMoney.com and authored TheStreet.com Technology Report. My unique coverage called for the housing bubble to pop in 2005 and for regional banks to collapse in 2006 and early-2007. This is when my proprietary analytics became known as value levels at which to buy on weakness and risky levels at which to sell on strength. I became an Expert Contributor for TheStreet.com in April 2012 and currently write one or two stories a day covering subjects such as: The housing market, community and regional banks, momentum stocks, earnings profiles both before companies report quarterly results and provide scorecards after reporting results. Many of my stories we include key moving averages, momentum readings, analysts’ earnings estimates, and value levels and risky levels.less
