Sandy Leeds teaches in the MBA Program at the McCombs School, oversees The MBA Investment Fund, L.L.C. and writes a blog  (www.leedsonfinance.com).  While teaching future analysts, he encourages students to always search for data, rather than simply voicing their opinions. 

Topic: Data Driven! 

In this presentation, Sandy will discuss some of the current economic and market data that he thinks is particularly interesting.

Topics such as:

(1) The US debt problem (2) the records being set by the slope of the yield curve; (3) the TARP repayment compared to the increasing liability due to Fannie, Freddie and AIG; (4) support for auditing the Fed; (5) the weakness in the securitized lending market; (6) some recent surveys showing the fear of Americans about the economy; (7) stock returns by decade and the effect on retirement; (8) the recent rebound in the dollar, etc.
