Real estate hasn’t milked the good times, why keep for the bad?

My third article has been posted on seekingalpha.com.

I show that the relative strength of the real estate sector against the S&P 500 Index remains closely linked to the 30 year bond yield. I show that despite yield still being historically low after the post US election increase, a new long term relative low has been made. I suggest an alternative sector for relative return investors.

I’d like to have been able to publish this a week ago, before the resistance break. There is an editorial process at seekingalpha.com and I had to revise the article. It is right that they have that; otherwise it would just be a mass participation blog, otherwise known as social media.

In other news, I passed the Chartered Market Technician (CMT) Level Two exam in October.

*Update: I passed the Chartered Market Technician (CMT) Level Three exam in April 2017, completing the CMT exam programme.
