The major stock indexes pulled back slightly as Trump delivered remarks after taking the oath of office. Among topics of particular interest to Wal...
Donald J. Trump became the 45th president of the United States Friday during the 58th inauguration ceremony. Since the election, I kept hearing the phrase "peaceful transition of power" and with all the rioting and violent protests following President Trump's election my initial thoughts in hearing that phrase was making sure a smooth transition into the White House, stopping the riots and violent protests. As the inauguration celebration began Thursday night I began to truly think of those...

It’s time to cap off this NFL playoff predictions trilogy with an underwhelming finale. Again I was 3-1 with my picks putting me at 6-2 overall, respectable, then again I’m only picking winners not spreads. For these championship games it’s going to look like a Madden 17 game with very little defense and a lot of offense. Before my picks, a quick shout out to NBA Golden State Warriors owner Joe Lacob and his ownership group who put up all $1.1 billion for their new arena in San Francisco. I have no evidence of this and it’s pure specula...
