Send us Fan MailI just want to know what's actually happening. Not what the headlines say. Not what the stock market says. What is actually happening.The S&P 500 is breaking records every week since March 27th while oil is still up 30% from pre war levels, bond yields are screaming inflation, credit card defaults are climbing, car loans are going 60 and 90 days no payment at record rates, and the housing market is frozen. Those two things cannot both be telling the truth at the same time. One of them is lying. And I think I know which one.We also walked through the Iran peace deal for the sixth week in a row and for the sixth week in a row I am calling BS. Iran's lead negotiator said they will not sign anything until $24 billion in frozen assets are released. Trump's own post says no money will exchange hands in any way shape or form. Those two things are not a deal. That is two countries still at war using the word peace to move markets.We also got into the jobs numbers, the K shaped economy, stock buybacks consuming 90% of corporate profits, and why the government statistics we get once a month are not reflecting what real people are living every single day.Episode 73 of the Zach Foust Show.
