Employment Report Headlines are stronger than the underlying data shows; economic activity is slowing, but markets remain upbeat. Markets have been quiet; complacency can lead to unexpected things.

In 2020, it was disrupter stocks. Today, it is artificial intelligence and semiconductor providers. The markets have evolved into a “get rich quick” industry, where Wall Street creates products to fill hungry investors’ demand for the next “hot opportunity.” Such has been a boon for the index ETF industry, financial applications, and trading websites.
