Wages have outpaced inflation for the last 12 months in a row. In June, prices dropped for the first time since the pandemic. Other countries are in recession; the US is not. Stock market just hit another high yesterday. The economy is not getting worse by any measure.

There are a few assumptions that need revisiting. Stock market is not the real economy. The stock market is being carried by a few tech stocks and speculation is at an all time high.
