This week on the Big Picture, Jim looks at what is driving the markets, which are up across the board, even with a slowing economy and corporate profits down. The falling dollar seems to be the key to improving liquidity and taking pressure off the emerging markets. Jim also goes over the leading economic indicators and the jobs numbers, and what they are telling us. He also discusses what is working now with a declining dollar scenario. The next topic is “Obamacare – A Big Mess and Hard to Fix”. Jim covers some of the tax increases and rising premiums for 2016. The final topic on the Big Picture this week is “Oil: The Bottom is In”. Jim looks at the fundamentals of the oil price, as well as the geopolitical developments that have pushed oil prices off the lows from earlier this year.
