Good Friday morning. It’s starting to feel like groundhog day, repeating the same statement time and again ; “for all intents and purposes, the war has been won.

VRA Alert: Buy NAIL

Good Tuesday afternoon. It’s time to re-add NAIL (3 x Housing ETF) to the VRA Portfolio. As we discussed yesterday, the housing market has rarely been in a stronger fundamental position. We simply need rates to come down (for new construction) in order to get this group going again. That should begin to take place […]
