Last month I wrote a guest column for The Striking Price on behalf of Steven Sears at Barron’s, entitled: How to Spot Risk Early. That column has received a fair amount attention and yesterday it landed me on Fox Business with Gerri Willis of The Willis Report in a segment with the title, How to Foresee Trouble in the Markets.
I should point out that this was the first time I have done an interview via a remote studio link and the experience was a little unsettling, sitting in a dark room staring off into the blackness while being assaulted by two huge spotlights that seemed as if they could illuminate an entire baseball field for a night game. Without the benefit of a monitor of having any idea what the feed looked like, I found myself talking to a voice inside my head staring into the darkness with absolutely zero idea what the feed might look like on TV. Fortunately the result was not as bad as I had feared.
