July Market Insights: The Six Months Where Everything Changed

July 8, 2025

The Great Depression of the 1930s was more than an economic collapse; it was an ideological crucible. As capitalism faltered, socialism surged, promising salvation through state control. Today, that battle rages anew, with the U.S. Federal Reserve at its heart.

Washington. The opioid crisis, the decay of small towns, and the anger of those left behind are not mysterious—they are the predictable fallout of an economic order designed by and for elites, insulated from the consequences of their own policies.
