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
Are we on the brink of an energy crisis again?? Latest news is that we only have 28 days of diesel supply. That means any crazy move by Putin, a Refinery fire or any number of things could cause a serious shortage and we’re moving into winter. For the leading world power this is a ridiculous position for us to be in.
No wonder markets aren’t voting with confidence.
Yahoo Finance 10-25-22
The US now has just 25 days of diesel supply — the lowest since 2008. Here’s why that’s more alarming than a dwindling ‘oil piggy bank’
The U.S. is facing a diesel crunch just as demand is surging ahead of winter — with only 25 days of supply left, according to the Energy Information Administration.
National Economic Council Director Brian Deese told Bloomberg TV that diesel inventories are “unacceptably low” and “all options are on the table” to bolster supply and reduce prices.
However, even as the stockpiles are being drained, the Biden administration seems to be left with very few sustainable options for long-term relief.

3rd Quarter US Benchmark ETF Update
October 25, 2022 by Herb Blank
The third quarter was a tale of two halves. The market staged what turned out to be a bear market rally throughout July and the first two weeks of August. Then it was as if somebody blew a whistle. The next six weeks saw the bear return with a vengeance.
The ETF reports on ValuEngine for ETFs that follow market benchmarks provide a side benefit in writing market analyses. They are a window to implicit forecasts for the 3-, 6- and 12-month forecasts that the VE models are making for each benchmark’s ETF portfolio. This is because the ratings and projections combine bottom-up constituent analysis with analyses of the historical price movements of the ETF in different market environments.
