A Summary of the Stock Market

Weekly rambles Full piece: https://kyla.substack.com/p/whats-going-on 00:00​​​​ - Intro 00:46 - Energy Markets 04:28 - Europe 05:25 - Turkey 05:59 - The United States 11:51 - Jerome Powell 13:20 - New Covid Strain 14:53 - On Optimism A Small Note of Gratitude I am acutely aware of how much support I’ve had - no one has ever had to show me the kindness that I’ve received over the past few months and years. So many people have taken chances on me (my professors, Capital Group, and YOU!!) and for that, I am so eternally thankful - to the point where mere words can’t express it (the irony of the newsletter writer). This gratitude is in everything I do - everything I write, create, film - it is backdropped by the support and love of so many. I know how lucky I am to be doing what it is that I do - educating, building, learning, reading - it really is a dream. And so to you, my dear community, I thank you. For signing up, for listening to this, for caring about the markets. It really means the world to me. I hope you enjoy this channel and my other work, and again thank you, for simply being here. I appreciate you.
