While the negative narratives swirl, Doug and Greg Stokes look at the actual data to find encouraging signs in the markets. 

The guys also examine the latest tech layoffs and what they mean for the macro economy and they question why people listen to “investor gurus" and why pessimism is seen as a sign of intelligence today.
