This week Joseph Wang joins the show post FOMC to break down how markets are reacting to positive inflation data & Powell's press conference comments. As the U.S continues to run large fiscal deficits, Joseph outlines his thesis for why he expects stocks to continue crushing bonds in 2024 & why markets will actually crash up instead of down. Enjoy!
