A recent article in Bloomberg titled "Why the Worst May Already be Over for the Global Economy" had our Matt Piepenburg very concerned.
Not only is the headline misleading, but the entire article attempts to dangerously mask a broken economy and hand out false hope through lies of omission and misleading propaganda.
But not on Matt's watch.
Let me show you what's really happening here...

The upcoming 2020 federal election is promising a bevy of "goodies" such as free health care and college, guaranteed jobs, universal basic incomes, and the "Green New Deal."
But these can only be achieved through something called modern monetary theory, or MMT.

The 2020 democratic primary is heating up to be one of the most competitive primaries in at least a generation.
In just the last few months, 13 Democrats have announced their candidacy for president of the United States, while countless others are on the verge of jumping in the ring.
It's not surprising. The range of democratic approaches to address everything from healthcare to the economy could not be greater.
However, there is one thing every single person running for the Democratic ticket agrees on – marijuana legalization.

On Sunday (Feb. 24), President Trump announced that the United States would hold off on imposing a 25% tariff on $200 billion worth of Chinese goods on March 1.
Global markets greeted the announcement with elation – the Dow Jones jumped nearly 300 points in Monday's trading session while the Shanghai Stock Exchange surged a record 5%.
However, global markets might be getting ahead of themselves...

At this very moment, Chinese and U.S. trade representatives are meeting in hopes of establishing a "memorandum of understanding" against the possibility of an escalating trade war.
And as Matt explains, there are no winners in a trade war, especially when both countries are dealing with crippling debt.
But, much better, you'll know how and when to buy into real value...

On Monday, on the eve of the "round two" denuclearization talks between U.S. President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, a news story broke that Pyongyang's main nuclear reactor for making weapons-grade plutonium may still be operating.
I wasn't at all surprised.
The fact is, whenever people ask me if I think we'll be able to get North Korea to give up its nukes, I don't offer a direct response.
Instead, I send them to the "Bamboo Lounge."
That's right – I tell those folks to watch the one-minute, 40-second "introduction" scene in Martin Scorsese's classic gangster movie, "Goodfellas."
You know the scene I'm talking about.
Let me show you what I mean. Then let me show you what to do...

There's a lot to like about this market…
It's technically strong, and leadership among the sectors hasn't changed. This is good.
The Nasdaq Composite and Russell 2000 indexes are out above their 200-day moving averages as of Friday; all four of the major indexes are back above this key trend line. The CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) has settled below the critical 15-point level and was last seen headed south. I'm lovin' it.
And of course, more than 80% of the S&P 500 has reported earnings. Seventy percent of 'em beat earnings expectations, and 60% trounced revenue expectations. Phenomenal.
Finally, a raft of weak-ish economic data had traders taking some profit off the table last week, which, in conjunction with a sagging VIX, suggests we're done with the selling for the time being.
The trend is your friend, I always like to say, and the trend is "up."
But we still have to make it past the China trade deal – or lack thereof.
