I’m more of a social media consumer than a creator, so this account is mostly reposting interesting charts or data I find.

I think data could be more accessible to a wider audience so sometimes I’ll quote post with a comment about why I find it surprising.

H/T The Wall Street Journal: Interest payments on US federal debt have grown to "over $1 trillion—more than military spending."

How the economy navigates the additional growth on tap will be a function of the cost of debt and, critically, sustaining high growth.

Something I hope everyone with a 401k reading this learns: being a bag holder for 13 years and 4 months is totally fine. Seriously. It's not a problem. Your most powerful source of returns as an individual investors is patience and just not worrying about being in a drawdown for a while.

New from @jessrem.bsky.social, an interesting break down on the types of places that are accommodating the most new housing: open.substack.com/pub/agglomer...

While outer ring suburbs are accommodating the most new housing, downtowns are growing a lot faster than inner ring suburbs.

The key chart right now:

Usually US economic pain is cushioned by falling bond yields and a strengthening dollar, which mean lower interest rates and more spending power for consumers.

This time we’re seeing the opposite, meaning the pain will be amplified.
