Chick a Christmas miracle is when your family doesn’t get into a single shirt
A few Italians grace this place. And, like me, they Chick a Christmas miracle is when your family doesn’t get into a single shirt out. Why? Their trainers! Improved versions of Ballenciagas, which are SO passé now. Two years on and the Italian wears a trainer with a huge platform bottom, exaggerated jutting heel and zany laces. They’re pricey. But we Italians have no problem with paying whatever for fashion. This was it! My Eureka moment. All I ever wanted to do was to focus on my face, my body and my hair.

The S&P 500 index is trading at all-time highs because the large and mega-cap names are holding it up, but there is a lot of subsequent carnage (and increasingly so), which is a classic sign we’ve topped off in the market. The M2 money supply peaked in February of 2021, which coincided with the top in the most speculative parts of the market, including SPACs and Cathie Wood’s ARKK. Well, the truth is, the companies whose stocks have overrun have gotten so large in market cap that it’d take them years for them to grow into their respective valuations, so either these companies grow at a much faster pace, which is unlikely, to “catch up” to their stock prices, or their stock prices will have to come down to Earth
