Does your company need D & O Insurance?
Recently, a small business owner decided it was time to put a board of directors in place for his company. After several years of growth, the owner felt a board could help focus the company’s direction. Upon learning this, several people mentioned that it was prudent to get directors and officers liability insurance.
Directors, officers, and organizations are held accountable to investors and shareholders for the financial management of the company they work for. They take strategic risks for the growth of the business. Sometimes the choices they make can impact the business negatively, which can put them at risk of being sued. This insurance can be key to your business’s risk management plan.
If you are running a public company Directors and Officers Insurance could be the deciding factor in bringing on a qualified Director.
D & O Insurance demonstrates your professionalism and ensures you’ll have protection and world class representation if you and your fellow directors are ever sued.

Breaking News
Markets have been a little better over the last week, but bad news is on the horizon in the Real Estate markets.
As mortgage rates increase the cost of home ownership rises exponentially compared with wages and the effect is to put the brakes on construction and sales in a big way.
Mortgage rates increased last week, with the 30-year rate rising to 6.48% and the 15-year mortgage coming in at 5.73%, up from 5.68% the week prior. That’s in the order of double from what it was 18 months ago
One of the nation’s largest homebuilders, KB Home, released its Q4 report Wednesday, which indicated more signs of housing weakness. According to the report, KB Home saw a 68% cancelation rate on new construction projects.
The economic trickle-down effect is substantial, rolling downhill into wages, building materials, home furnishings and on and on. These recent rate hikes certainly may be enough to drive us into a recession, if we’re not their already and nothing about that will be good for the stock markets.
US real estate market in ‘big trouble,’ expert warns

As the Federal Reserve continues its hawkish market reset – which has contributed to a rise in interest and mortgage rates – real estate experts are sounding the alarm that “big trouble” lies ahead for the U.S. market.
“When you have a rise and increase in interest rates like we’ve had, that is a big problem for housing. Interest rates are like the mother’s milk of housing,” Pulte Capital CEO Bill Pulte told FOX Business’ Maria Bartiromo Thursday. “And if you cut it off, you’re in big trouble. And when you’ve had these massive increases in interest rates, it just puts a lot of things to a stop.”

Is It Time to Get Back to Basics?
January 4, 2023 by Herb Blank
I feel deluged lately by webinars and events touting investments in gold and precious metals. One theory pushed to support investment in these industry groups is that 1974 is here again. They claim it is inevitable that the market will tank further as the economy plunges into stagflation, a deeper recession accompanied by huge inflation and problematic unemployment.
At the same time infrastructure building is still a government priority and unspent dollars have already been allocated for this process in the Build Back Better bill. Therefore, it is time to invest in industrial metals and other cyclical basic materials groups. Interestingly, all of these groups are generally covered by the same ETFs in a sector called either materials or basic materials depending upon which sector classification system is being used. This week we analyze the top three ETFs that cover the entire sector, not just a portion of it. Then we look inside the sector and highlight four of its most interesting stocks according to our models.
