HomeWhat Are the Greatest Risks?
Posted by Larry Doyle on December 12th, 2011 10:41 AM |
In the midst of all the research and analysis put forth by virtually every entity within the financial services industry, I VERY rarely see any mention of what I deem to be the two greatest risks that individual investors face each and every day.
We are fed and can read volumes about a wide array of risks, including market risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, currency risk, prepayment risk, volatility risk, and liquidity risk. While overwhelmed by analysis on these risks, my ‘sense on cents‘ leads me to focus primarily on the two greatest risks of all.
What are these risks and why is it that those within the financial services industry do not highlight them? (more…)
Janet Napolitano Should Listen to Larry Johnson

The mission of Sense on Cents is to help people navigate the economic landscape. Proper navigation requires a full understanding of risk. What are the risks in our economy, political process, investments, the world?
Make no mistake, the global risks of terrorism have an enormous impact on our global economy. No individual today understands the risks of terrorism more than my friend Larry Johnson, who runs the political blog No Quarter USA. Larry has appeared on several radio and television news shows over the last couple of days to speak about the attempted Christmas Day bombing of Northwest Flight # 253 by Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab.
Given Larry’s extensive background in counterterrorism (he was Deputy Director of Counterterrorism for the State Department), I strongly encourage everyone to listen to his comments.
Thank you Larry for providing such expert professional opinions. Janet Napolitano, Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, would do well to follow your lead.
A big thank you to C.S. for putting together the following video clips. The first clip is from Larry Johnson’s appearance on last night’s 7PM broadcast of CNN Tonight:
The next video clips are from Larry Johnson’s appearance on last night’s Larry King Live show.
