In its November report, mortgage security firm Freddie Mac called 2017 the "best year in a decade" for the housing market by a variety of measures.

Let's see if I was a champ or a chump.Last year I wrote:1. Rates: range bound between 1.60% and 3%.The 1...Read More

December 20, 2017 / Luke Burgess

I was first introduced to the concept of "peak oil" 15 years ago. It was a simple theory: Oil is a finite resource.

But the man who popularized the idea was an American geophysicist na...Read More
