Lawrence McMillan of OptionStrategist.com, president of McMillan Analysis, says that the technical indicators have all lined up so where there are no sell signals and the market could easily move up to recapture its August highs, though he acknowledges that the big concern is not something in the charts but rather is the Federal Reserve, 'which is not exactly bending over backwards to help the markets.' McMillan notes that he would like to see a confirming signal from a cumulative volume indicator to be convinced that it's a full-fledged bull market, but he intends to ride the trends while determining if the market is building long-term confidence. In The Big Interview, Tadas Viskanta, editor at Abnormal Returns, discusses how the changing landscape of financial blogs and media has left investors swimming in a sea of data that can be hard to cut through without succumbing to confirmation bias and other bad behavioural concerns. John Cole Scott, president of Closed-End Fund Advisors and the chairman of the Active Investment Company Alliance, is back for The NAVigator, looking at how the market's hot start to the new year has changed the outlook for various closed-end fund sectors and the moves investors might want to consider now and, in the Market Call, Will Rhind of GraniteShares discusses the X-Out method for investing in large-cap stocks.

Tadas Viskanta is among the first wave of successful investment bloggers, starting the Abnormal Returns blog in 2005. Rather than providing its readers with forecasts and other crystal ball-gazing exercises, Tadas focuses on education, writing about best practice in both investing and personal finance. MarketFox columnist Daniel Grioli speaks with Tadas about the early days of blogging, what it takes to write interesting material and how blogging keeps wealth management clients engaged. They also talk about how this blog ultimately led Tadas to join Ritholtz Wealth Management as Director of Education. Podcast overview: 5:00 starting out in the industry 7:00 How did studying at the University of Chicago, the bastion of the efficient market hypothesis, influence your thinking? 11:30 The early days of blogging 14:30 How long did it take for people to engage with your content? 17:00 Taking an educational slant 19:00 Doing this on a daily basis allows me to see the flow of information and how topics evolve over time 20:30 The idea that investors can bring their values to the markets is going to be increasingly a topic for investment 22:00 The debate about whether an ESG strategy will deliver the same or somewhat more than the market is besides the point. The behavioural aspect is much more interesting than the performance. 24:30 There has been much talk about the FANGs, but the way in how these technology companies change and shape our society is something that is important to stay on top off. 29:40 My position at Ritzholtz wealth management is really a function of the blogosphere. 30:30 What does Director of Education mean? 32:30 Treating social media as a monthly performance report. 33:00 Authenticity is the key to writing online. 35:00 Howard Marks of Oaktree was one of the first investors to write in this style, before blogs even existed. 40:30 The great financial crisis was what brought the financial blogosphere to the fore. We were all in the dark and the media started to look at bloggers that had first hand experience in mortgage backed securities. 43:00 We use the blog to update our clients daily on what is going on. They don’t have to wait for the quarterly performance report. 46:00 There is no one way to communicate with a client. 47:30 What things in your career did you have to learn the hard way? 48:30 What blogs do you recommend?

As special businesses have transitioned from primarily key PPE advantages (more readily quantifiable by accounting) to instead relying on IP, knowledge, network effects, intangibles (less quantifiable and more subjective), you could make an argument that the balance sheet is increasingly divorcing from economic reality.  Given this trend, does a quantitatively driven approach to value investing still work in the future? I’ve heard many great investors say you shouldn’t compare yourself to the S&P, and yet every does.  What do you personally use for your benchmarks? You often hear that ETFs are a better mousetrap?  What exactly makes them so much better than mutual funds? You have an interesting quote: “The primary role of the financial system is to coax risk-adverse investors into risky securities.”  What did you mean by that, and do you think it’s even more of an issue with zero interest rate policies like we see today?
