59,700 - this is the number of views of this content over the last 30 days. This is pretty impressive how fast the overall reach has been growing here and on social media. Unfortunately, inflation has also been rising. The best ways to fight this are investing in financial markets and growing business and its profits.

This is why prices for NEW paid subscribers will go up from the 1st of January 2025 to $19.99 a month and $199 a year. This is still below the pricing of most creators and a decent price for the amount and quality of research you receive. You can secure the current (old) pricing below before December ends.

US stocks dropped for the second consecutive week with a very volatile last three days. On Wednesday, the S&P 500 plummeted 3.0%, the biggest drop in the decision Fed day since the March 2020 crash. Subsequently, on Thursday stocks ended flat and bounced by 1.1% on Friday following better than expected inflation PCE data.

Is the second wave of US inflation on the way?
