MBS OPEN: Rates Ticking Higher Just Because They Can
Posted To: MBS Commentary Good Morning. I've had some great coaches in my lifetime...none better than my high school/juniors hockey skipper. Many of the messages he bestowed upon me have carried over from the locker room into my professional life. One of my favorites is the K.I.S.S principle.

Stocks are still showing an unwavering inclination to do what they want, when then want.
