It’s the Governor’s fault.  It’s the Legislature’s fault.  It’s ERCOT’s fault.  It’s the PUC’s fault.  It’s the fault of wind turbines and renewable energy.  It’s the fault of fossil fuels.  It’s Flyin’ Ted’s fault.  It’s Rick Perry’s fault.  Whew!

Welcome to the Texas Legislature 2021.  What an opportunity to counter the Washington narrative and carry out the people’s business with calm, dignity and wisdom.  My hope is that partisanship, incivility, and flagrant dishonesty, all of which we see across the aisle both ways in Washington, D.C., will be resoundingly rejected by conservative Republicans and liberal Democrats, both.  And we got a gift to start 2021, as the deficit in the next biennial budget is projected to be far less than originally feared during the worst part of the pandemically induced economic downturn.  Meeting budget priorities and living within our

Many investors towards the end of a year turn their thoughts to investment decision-making.  It’s somewhat unfortunate, because wise decision-making on investments is a year round process, not relegated to discrete, small parts of the entire year.  Having said that, this year in particular provides several opportunities to make wise choices from an investment standpoint. We’ve been fortunate to have a terrific investment year after a scary spring of declines, with most market indices up for the year.  However, some folks have jokingly retitled the S&P 500 the “S&P 5,” as almost all the gains this year are encapsulated in

Today, we celebrate Juneteenth. This was the day in 1865 when news of emancipation and the Civil War’s end finally reached slaves living in Texas. Juneteenth became an official state holiday as far back as 1980 in Texas, the first state to designate it as such, when Governor Bill Clements took action ahead of his time.  45 states have followed suit over the past 40 years.  Now, another great Texan, Senator John Cornyn, has filed a bill to make Juneteenth an official federal holiday. Juneteenth is a great reminder to us all that freedom is a sacred, God-given right.  Now, more than
