      Hasset being a little tone deaf. The general populace probably doesn’t interpret that message the same way his banker buddies do.

        stock market is en fuego. But I suppose that doesn't mean much to those doing all that credit card spending. Except on the off chance they are contributing to a retirement plan.

        Education is extremely important.

          I meet with Merrill (BofA) every quarter who, between credit cards and checking accounts, has a superb and early view of consumer behavior. One thing they’ve highlighted in recent meetings is that spending has been good but in large part it’s the top 10% of income earners picking up the slack for somewhat decreased purchasing power of the rest. Indeed that top 10% represent half of all consumer spending.

            It's good to be the top 10%!

              The latest quarterly Trump economic report. Couple of things which you may notice.

              • I changed the source of some of the information, so that I get all of it from official US government sources. I went back and re-did the numbers so that they all came from US government.
              • I am not sure a "strict" change in % vs. the end of President Biden term tells the whole story. Probably better to graph out the numbers to see trends etc., but I was too lazy to do that. LOL

                      Wow.

                      30% of car buyers trading in vehicles in early 2026 are "underwater," owing more on their loans than the car is worth, with an average gap of over $7,000, per WSJ
