Event Details
Prof. Aliber once again pulled no punches and called it like he saw it, uncensored, this past January. Will the U.S. economy finally break out of slow growth in 2017? Will interest rates and inflation finally rise after years of easy money policies? Will oil finally rally to support Houston? Ask Prof. Aliber about his views on these topics, Trump trade policy or your personal finance decisions.
