It’s important to think about the past sometimes before you can think about the future. And the past couple of years, fiscal policy and monetary policy has been nothing but accommodating. But when you’re overly accommodating, that usually comes with repercussions down the road. And we are dealing with one of those repercussions now through inflation. While President Biden took a victory lap this week by cherry picking numbers, the majority of Americans are still getting crushed through ramped inflation which came in much higher than expected. The market dropped almost 5% because of mismanaged expectations all while we are approaching $31 Trillion of debt here in the United States. What does this mean for the overall economy & stock market? Will the recent rail-road strikes have an impact on the economy? All of this is covered in this week's "The Capitalist Investor" episode.
