Talking about a K-shape economy...

The gap between Wall Street and Main Street has never been bigger: ➡️ Main Street: US consumer sentiment is down to 47.6 points, the lowest level in history. ➡️Wall Street: the S&P 500 is trading just 3% from its all-time high. ⚠️ Since the 2020 pandemic, consumer sentiment has fallen -50%. During the same period, the S&P 500 has rallied +205%. This comes as inflation, rising housing costs, and a weakening job market are increasingly squeezing the average American household. Meanwhile, 87% of all equities are held by the wealthiest 10% of households. Asset owners are the biggest winners in this economy. Source: The Kobeissi Letter, zerohedge
