Is it possible to build a billion-dollar business in less than 10-years?

Is it possible to build a billion-dollar business in less than 10-years? Chobani did it in less than 10 years . Of course, this is something you would want to do, too, but we can still help you if you want to achieve less. Do you want to get to a billion-dollar business? Using my 40-year expertise in industry, relevant data and exacting methodologies I corrected the Fed’s Bank Stress Test . Are the Fed listening or sweeping everything under the carpet? We will know when the next recession hits. I laid the strategy for Westport, restructured its tariffs, and within 10 years it achieved the status of 6 th largest port in the world. At Unilever I reduced sales-to-delivery cycletime from a max of 54 days to 3 that alone caused market share to increase by 0.5% within 6 months. Isn’t this the kind of success you would want? As a boutique consulting firm, I am focused on small to mid-sized businesses in the Los Angeles area. I rebuild businesses for sustainable growth....

Daily Treasury Yield Curve and Recessions (Updated 12/22/2018)

Image
With the  news of Treasury yield curve inversions , I thought this  Dept of Treasury Daily Yield Curve  may interest you. Watch how this yield curve is inverted. Duration Recession Yield Inversion Advance Warning 2001 Recession 03/01-11/01 06/01-01/01 11 months 7 months 2 months Great Recession 12/07-06/09 08/16-05/17 18 months 10 months 3 months The possible lessons are: 1. That the yield curve inversion must last several months before it portends a recession, and when this yield curve recovers the recession starts within 3 months of this recovery. 2. Given a small sample size of 2 a post-1991 recession has a duration of at least 1.5 times the duration of the yield curve inversion, with an advance notice of 1/3 its (yield curve inversion) duration. Unfortunately, this means that if the yield curve inversion continues, there is a strong possibility we will have a re...

Its economic side is about capital formation, while its political side is about whom. The economic question, capital formation, in its broadest sense includes individual savings, without which banks cannot play their role of intermediation. This answers the political question for whom? For everyone.   For everyone, implies that our economy should be a win-win game where everyone benefits from growth and capital formation.   Not a zero-sum game where growth and capital formation benefit a select few at the expense of everyone else. The implicit assumption here is that everyone wants to get rich and are willing to put in the effort to do so. In either case, zero-sum or win-win, the select few always benefit. That is life. This is true of any political system whether capitalist, democratic, ...
