I'm the Chief Operating Officer for The Connors Group, the multi-media financial publishing and analytics powerhouse that sponsors The Money Blogs. (That said, all posts here are my personal opinions, not company policy.) I care about the long-run health of our country's economy and the world economy of which it is a part.
