Conclusion: If you're only watching headline inflation, you're missing the collision course. I broke down the full statistical snapshot and what it means for your portfolio here: https://t.co/puvtY1ysSQ (7/7)

Truth #5: The Great Reallocation. Central Banks have bought 1,000+ tonnes of gold for 3 years straight. It's not a 'trade'; it's a structural divorce from the USD. 95% of central banks expect reserves to keep growing. The multipolar world is here. (6/7)

Truth #4: The AI Paradox. Hyperscalers are spending $600B on AI CAPEX. But the grid is the bottleneck. ChatGPT uses 10x the power of a Google search. Data center demand is doubling to 945 TWh, but the grid takes 10 years to scale. The wall is physical, not digital. (5/7)

Truth #3: The Silent Labor Contraction. Big Tech is hiring, but 'Main Street' is freezing. Small businesses (20-49 employees) lost 120,000 jobs in Nov 2025 alone. We are entering a 'Jobless Boom' where the top 500 companies thrive. (4/7)

Truth #2: The $1.6 Trillion Refinancing Wall. Commercial real estate isn't just about empty offices. Multifamily (apartments) debt maturities are jumping 56% by 2026. Refinancing 3% loans at 7% into falling valuations? This is a math problem with no easy exit. (3/7)

Truth #1: The economy now rests on the S&P 500. The top 10% now drive ~50% of all US consumption ($20.3T in 2025). Every 1% market move now has 2.5x the 'wealth effect' impact it had in 2010. Direct tethering = Extreme systemic risk. (2/7)

The S&P 500 is lying to you. While GDP looks robust, 5 "Hidden Truths" are forming a dangerous divergence that will define the 2026 economy. From a $1.6T debt wall to a "silent" labor contraction - here is what is actually happening beneath the surface. (1/7)
