This Market Rally Is Bad News for the Economy

This recent stock market rally will end one of three ways … and two outcomes end badly for the U.S. economy. Here’s why.

Chart of the day: The S&P 500 could easily fall to 3,000 points. Three indicators show that this is likely. Here’s what it means.

There aren’t enough homes for buyers. This is good news for homeowners — but not for young families who are hoping to buy their first home.

Chart of the day: A down move in the U.S. dollar is likely. History shows that a weak dollar is good for incumbent presidents.

Homebuilding has slowed, and that has a ripple effect on the economy. This chart from the Federal Reserve shows the correlation.
