💸 The real cost of inflation

Forget the “2%” headline.

Look at what actually happened in the last 5 years:

🟡 Eggs +157%
🟡 Auto insurance +61%
🟡 Fuel oil +58%
🟡 Gas utilities +56%
🟡 Home prices +52%
🟡 Transportation +43%
🟡 Shelter +28%

This is why official CPI feels like fiction.
Markets may price policy, but households live in reality.

📈 Previous Day / Week Highs & Lows

Some of the cleanest levels you can use for bias are simply the previous day’s and week’s highs and lows.

Price always reacts to them - it’s just about how.

🟡 Closes beyond PDH/PWH → continuation likely, next target is new highs.

🟡 Fails to close beyond → expect reversal back inside the range, often targeting the opposite side.

🟡 Inside day → no break, just balance. Sets up expectation for the next move.

🟡 Closes back inside after a break → early sign of reversal, liquidity shift back inward.

The trick: don’t look at these levels in isolation. Use them to frame the bigger narrative.

Simple, clean, and surprisingly powerful.

📉📈 Big Tech vs Small Caps

The 5 largest US stocks (NVDA, MSFT, AAPL, AMZN, META) are now worth 4.9x more than all small-cap stocks combined, a new record.

🟡 Since 2019, this ratio has tripled, driven by mega-cap tech.

🟡 Gains since then: NVDA +5109%, MSFT +435%, AAPL +463%, AMZN +203%, META +440%.

🟡 In the same period, the Russell 2000 (small caps) rose just 66%.

🟡 For context: at the dot-com bubble peak (2000), the ratio was ~1.5x.
Before the 2008 crisis ~1.0x.

Small caps have never been this overshadowed. The US market is now more concentrated than ever.

JUST IN: Elon Musk is pausing his initiative to form the "America Party," choosing instead to focus on his businesses and potentially support Vice President JD Vance for a 2028 presidential run.

• He has stopped conversations with party organizers.
• Musk spent nearly $300 million in 2024 supporting Donald Trump.
• Republicans value Musk's financial backing for its potential influence.

This decision could enhance investor confidence in Musk's companies by keeping his focus on business operations, while maintaining political ties that may support favorable policies.
