💡Think “buy the dip” may no longer be enough? Get a free portfolio review with Wealthion’s endorsed financial advisors: https://bit.ly/48WIKnY The business cycle is dead. Bear markets are no more. Recessions, eliminated. At least, that’s how many investors view the market. But are these safe assumptions? In this interview with James Connor, economist David Rosenberg pushes back on these dangerous beliefs in investing today. He explains how complacency, hubris, and overconfidence have replaced risk management and why history suggests markets are ignoring forces they can’t repeal, no matter how strong the narrative feels. This isn’t a call to panic. It’s a warning about what happens when investors believe Mother Nature no longer applies to markets David also breaks down: * Why rate cuts aren’t actually stimulating the real economy * How stocks are being priced as if risk no longer exists * Why the equity wealth effect is masking weakness in the consumer * How AI-driven capex is distorting economic growth * Why the labor market is cracking beneath the headlines 💡 Worried today’s market optimism is masking real risk?
