Stock Market Reminder
By James Quillian, Economist, Political Analysist, Natural Law
It is time to clear up a persistent misconception about where the floor of this economy actually sits.
Investors are not holding this market up. The reality is far simpler and starker: the stock market is the U.S. economy.
We are currently sitting inside an AI-engineered bull market. It is not traditional organic growth driven by broad-based consumer demand or Main Street expansion; it is an engineered construct powered by artificial intelligence infrastructure and capital concentration.
More importantly, let’s be entirely clear about the causal chain: rising asset prices are what have funded and maintained the strong, long-lasting economic recovery. Asset inflation has served as the silent engine keeping the machinery turning.
When the stock market fails, that is when overall chaos ensues. It will collapse. And when it does, I hope you don’t fail to miss it. It needs to be said again because the mainstream narrative continues to treat the symptom while ignoring the spine.
