- MarketWatch says war, inflation, and Trump's tariffs are hidden forces driving the runaway US stock‑market rally.
- The Guardian describes the S&P 500 as behaving like Schrödinger's cat, indicating simultaneous bullish and bearish dynamics.
- Seeking Alpha notes that while growth continues, rising inflation creates uneven consequences across market sectors.
Why it matters: Equity investors profit from the rally, while US consumers and import‑dependent firms face higher costs from inflation and tariffs, amplifying the disparity between market gains and everyday expenses.
