Alsek does not provide STOCK or TRADING recommendations.
It focuses on Global Economic developments
Signals of Emerging Forces
for Strategic Future Outlooks.
Alsek helps professionals get the Big Picture and identify forces that form global economies.
You
will not be flooded with emails, newsletters, and hyped opinions of
daily market results or stock tips or end of the world scenarios.
Instead, EDGY ECONOMICS is sent approximately 2X a month with intermittent special issues when events occur that raise people's concern of the potential impact on the global economies. Hence, delivery is not so daily.
It's Hard, It's To the Point
Business leaders, who need analysis of the global picture, changing trends, impact of current events, and signals that hint of shifts and turning points, will find Alsek's EDGY ECONOMICS a source of researched explanations not found in news, blogs, or websites.
Produced by a seasoned business strategist, EDGY ECONOMICS tracks what businesses need to be aware of in the complex environment. It strives to maintain unbiased, balanced
analysis that filters out the media and other special
interest groups. Warning: political influences and uncertainties, and social
disruptions are discussed and assessed as a risk or opportunity when
they are identified as a force pressuring the economic environment.
Benefit to Business Leaders
Besides
building foresight and systems thinking skills, EDGY ECONOMICS Sprovides insight to
issues in the news, connects the dots to minimize complexity,
and searches for emerging signals to enhance opportunity and risk assessments. Often the most powerful force that impacts a business is not one that comes from their industry, nor shows up on probability screens. They are often political and social shifts that quantitative analysis does not consider.
Alsek assumes business leaders have all the competitive analysis at their hands. This update provides a depth to
the understanding of drivers and global forces -- human
behavior, technical trading, business practices, policies, and more.

Edgy Economics and Alsek Research are not the typical regurgitated news or opinions. The analysis aims to explain the main forces for strategic decisions.
Behind the Analysis
Receive
insight from Joan Foltz's 20 years experience as a business strategist
working for multinational corporations and analytical skills that draw
the information necessary to make decisions for risk and opportunity
assessment. With more than 20 years trading experience, Joan Foltz
understands when an issue is taking the shape of a cyclical event, secular market, or
simply seasonal conditions that enable other factors to dominate
markets. And as an investor, she tries to find the answers to the
questions that any business strategist needs to make sense of the economic environment.
Research
at Alsek will continue to focus on the future formation of the global
community and the social and economic evolution of an increasingly
integrated world -- from the trading room, to the global flow of
capital, to methods for identifying tipping points, to human
consumption behavior -- the World System will be explored.
