For decades, the NYSE and Nasdaq dominated American stock trading.

Now, a brand-new exchange backed by BlackRock, Citadel, JPMorgan, Goldman Sachs, Bank of America and Charles Schwab has officially launched—and it could reshape how billions of dollars move through Wall Street.

The biggest AI story isn't a new model—it's who may end up owning part of it.

Reports suggest OpenAI is discussing giving the U.S. government a 5% equity stake. At the same time, Washington has already demonstrated its willingness to intervene in AI model releases and exports. Could regulators become shareholders?

In today's Wall Street Truth Bomb, we break down what this could mean for investors, AI competition, market structure, and why this may be one of the most overlooked risks facing the AI sector.

The June jobs report looked strong on the surface, but the underlying data tells a completely different story.

While unemployment unexpectedly fell to 4.2%, over 507,000 Americans disappeared from employment in the Household Survey, labor force participation dropped to a five-year low, hiring slowed dramatically, and previous payroll gains were revised lower.

Iran may have abandoned military escalation in the Strait of Hormuz—but that doesn't mean the risk is gone.

Instead, Tehran appears to be building a long-term regulatory framework that could permanently reshape global energy markets. While Wall Street celebrates falling oil prices, shipping insurers and maritime risk professionals are pricing something very different.

Could the next oil shock come from paperwork instead of missiles?

A $49 billion sovereign investment fund just closed—and most investors are celebrating it as proof the AI boom is unstoppable. But history suggests something very different.

In this episode of Wall Street Truth Bombs, we break down why sovereign wealth funds entering the AI capital cycle could signal that private capital is reaching its limits, what this means for upcoming AI IPOs, and why retail investors should pay attention before the next wave of headlines.

Is this another stage of the AI boom... or the first warning that easy money is disappearing?

The stock market just posted its strongest quarter since 2020—but beneath the headlines, the story looks very different.

While the S&P 500 surged, more than one-third of its companies actually declined. The rally has been driven by a handful of AI, semiconductor, and mega-cap technology stocks, creating one of the narrowest market advances in years.

Wall Street focused on the consumer confidence headline—but the real story was buried beneath it.

The latest Conference Board report showed something far more concerning: Americans increasingly believe jobs are becoming harder to find, reaching the highest level since the pandemic. Combined with stagnant JOLTS hiring data, it paints a picture of a labor market quietly losing momentum.

The headlines keep talking about AI spending, data centers, and trillion-dollar investments. But according to the Bank for International Settlements, the real story may be hiding inside the credit markets.

In this episode of Wall Street Truth Bombs, we break down how off-balance-sheet financing, private credit, special purpose vehicles (SPVs), and shadow borrowing could be creating risks that resemble the plumbing failures leading into 2008.

If this analysis is correct, the biggest threat isn't AI valuations—it's hidden leverage. Subscribe for daily macroeconomic analysis, financial market breakdowns, Federal Reserve updates, banking news, and Wall Street insights.

The AI boom may not be just a technology story—it may be the biggest hidden credit story on Wall Street.

The Bank for International Settlements (BIS), often called the central bank for central banks, is warning that the explosive buildout of AI infrastructure is becoming increasingly dependent on debt, private credit, and complex off-balance-sheet financing.

In this episode of Wall Street Truth Bombs, we break down:
• Why the BIS is comparing today's AI investment boom to past financial bubbles
• How hidden debt is financing data centers • The rise of "shadow borrowing" and private credit
• Why a slowdown in AI spending could ripple through the financial system
• What investors should watch before the market does

Comcast's massive breakup isn't just another corporate restructuring.

By spinning off NBCUniversal and Sky while keeping its broadband business, Comcast may be admitting what Wall Street doesn't want to say out loud: the traditional television business is in structural decline.

In today's Wall Street Truth Bomb, we break down why investors cheered the announcement, why broadband is the real prize, and why this could be the beginning of the end for the legacy media bundle. If you follow markets, media stocks, or the future of streaming, this is one story you don't want to miss.

Bank of America just made a stunning reversal.

After expecting no Fed moves this year, economists are now forecasting three interest rate hikes before year-end.

Meanwhile, markets are still pricing in something much less aggressive. In this episode of Wall Street Truth Bombs, we break down why the market may be underestimating inflation, what Kevin Warsh's first Fed press conference revealed, and why higher interest rates could create another wave of pressure for growth stocks and AI.

If Wall Street is wrong, investors may not be prepared for what's coming.

New home sales just shocked Wall Street.

Today the Census Bureau releases May new home sales -- and the trend heading into that number is already down 11.3% year-over-year. But nobody is connecting that data to Bank of America's call for three Fed rate hikes by December -- which could push 30-year mortgages back toward 8%.

By the end of this video you will understand exactly what three hikes does to the housing math -- and why the largest store of wealth for most American families has not finished repricing.

Housing may not be healing. It may simply be running out of buyers.

The headlines say GDP improved. The fine print tells a very different story.

Today's GDP revision and PCE inflation report reveal an economy with weaker consumers, rising core inflation, and a Federal Reserve that may be forced to keep rates higher for longer.

In this Truth Bomb, we break down what Wall Street is missing, why the consumer matters more than the headline GDP number, and why today's data could strengthen the case for more Fed rate hikes.

But what if they're testing for the wrong crisis?

While banks pass stress tests designed around a 2008-style financial collapse, consumer finances are quietly deteriorating in real time. Credit card delinquencies have surged to 15-year highs, household debt has reached record levels, and millions of Americans are relying on credit cards just to cover essentials.

The banks may be passing. The consumer may not be.

Alphabet and Amazon just led a massive AI sector selloff, but Wall Street may be missing the bigger story.

Behind the headlines about executive departures lies a much deeper problem: Big Tech is spending hundreds of billions on AI infrastructure while consumer revenues struggle to keep pace.

In this episode of Wall Street Truth Bombs, we break down:
✅ Google's AI talent exodus
✅ The $400 billion AI infrastructure gamble
✅ Why Goldman Sachs is warning about returns
✅ The growing AI CapEx wall
✅ What investors should watch next

The AI boom isn't ending—but the easy money phase may be.

Wall Street is celebrating lower oil prices and progress on an Iran deal. But while markets price optimism, shipping data from the Strait of Hormuz tells a much more complicated story.

In this episode of Wall Street Truth Bombs, we break down the real state of negotiations, why shipping traffic suddenly collapsed again, and how three possible outcomes could impact gas prices, inflation, interest rates, and your portfolio.

The next few weeks may determine where oil prices head for the rest of the year.

🚨 Everyone is watching FedEx earnings for the freight spinoff.

They're watching the wrong thing.

FedEx is one of the best real-time economic indicators on the planet. Tonight's volume numbers could tell us more about consumer spending, inflation, and economic demand than the next government report.

The real signal isn't revenue. It's whether the world is still moving things.

🚨 Wall Street just panicked over AI memory.

SK Hynix slowed production of its next-generation HBM4 chips and investors immediately assumed AI demand was collapsing.

But there's one major problem with that narrative:
✅ SK Hynix is already sold out for 2026.
✅ AI memory shortages are still severe.
✅ The company may be shifting capacity toward an entirely new profit center created by the AI boom itself.

The market may be reading this story completely wrong.

Wall Street says the oil crisis is over. The DATA says otherwise.

🚨 Largest speculative oil short position since the pandemic
🚨 Strait of Hormuz still faces major risks
🚨 One headline could trigger a massive short squeeze

The peace trade may be an illusion.
