WTF. That was supposed to be a joke. How have we already recovered from the Iran war crash? A crash so bad, it plundged the markets to lows not seen since September!
By the stock market being based on pseudoscientific algorithms and the feelings of ultra-rich people, not objective reality.
Everything else could be falling apart, and the stock market could still be doing well as long as the 1% are telling each other that it is.
Conversely, when the real world is doing objectively better because of economic empowerment of poor and merely "comfortable" to regular amounts of rich people, that's BAD for the stock market since it makes the people shaping it super nervous.
JD and RFK want the youths to have more babies. I wonder if lowering the quality of life to third world levels is their plan for increasing the birth rate.

Yo i've had this song in my head at work all day today. This feels like deja vu but weirder. I wonder if there's a name for it.
