Why This Week Could Break the Economy

💥 The U.S. Is Broke — But the Market’s Still Booming?

We’re on an unsustainable fiscal path. Debt is surging, tariffs are rising, and the Fed is cornered. But consumer spending is holding strong, corporate earnings are crushing it, and housing equity is at all-time highs.

It’s a tale of two economies: resilient consumers vs. softening labor, rising home values vs. affordability walls, and a middle class caught in the middle.

📉 Inflation remains sticky. Interest rate cuts hang in the balance. And massive trade deals with the EU, South Korea, and Japan could reshape the global playing field.
