Sure. That’s great and all but very much a myopic view of the broader economy which isn’t exactly great at this point in time.

Good luck getting people on here to understand or agree with this.

Yeah there’s a growing disconnect between S&P earnings and the “economy”. Interest rate sensitive industries have basically been in a recession since 2023 with pockets of mild relief. The effects of shutting down the country in 2020 and just printing the currency into oblivion weren’t quite as transitory as Jerome was banking on.

The disconnect is the age old belief that the health of the economy is gauged by a cumulative representation of the average American’s finances.

The current economy is more than happy to chug along and focus on the top quartile. The average American is increasingly viewed as an anchor to progress.

Look at the revisions, and the 2 year at 4.8% , which is what the Fed follows… we are going into recession, so the Fed has to let it run hot, and not hike, to save the economy imo

The economy is essentially in UBI mode and has been since the GFC (and especially since COVID). If you look at a deficit-to-GDP-growth ratio, it's something like $1.40 of deficit spending for every $1 in GDP growth.
