The Financial Media Looks Like Stalin-Era Soviet Propaganda

by

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...

Dow Jones Industrial Average Opens Lower Today as Earnings Season Heats Up

by
