Households are facing ~$1.3T in credit-card debt, APRs near 20%+, auto loans above $1.6T, and essentials still far above 2020 levels. So even when people are employed, cash flow is being drained before it becomes savings. That’s why confidence keeps breaking. UpSpends creates a buffer income layer from participation, helping households rebuild purchasing power before stress turns into deeper demand destruction.

@FirstSquawk People don’t experience the economy through GDP charts. They experience it through rent, groceries, healthcare, debt, and whether their paycheck stretches to the end of the month.

@FirstSquawk Sentiment at a 24-year low while the market sits near all-time highs. One of these is leading. Guess which.

Stop electing foolish people
@FirstSquawk Mine has stayed the same. Retired (I think) and I think I've spend $300 on "shopping for sport" in the last 18 months. Save your money!

@FirstSquawk 90 million eligible voters sat on their lazy asses rather than vote in 2024. They need to learn a lesson. Lose everything with no hope of recovery. Maybe. Just maybe they will vote in November and 2028.

@FirstSquawk That is exactly the environment where $SOFI wins. When 55% of Americans feel financially stressed they need budgeting tools, refinancing, personal loans, and savings products. SoFi is not a bull market luxury it is a financial health platform built for this exact moment 📈

Why US consumer sentiment just hit a record low. Gas: $4.54 a gallon, up 44% year-on-year. Cited by 1 in 3 respondents. Tariffs: cited by 30%. 1-year inflation expectations: 4.5%. Current conditions index down 9% in a month. The index is now 48.2, the worst in 74 years. Cause and effect, not vibes.

@FirstSquawk Nah. Americans have never felt more ashamed about their finances. Never more celebrated for lying and whining and being part of a crowd. The quiet majority has never been more….quiet.

@FirstSquawk Sentiment cratering while the Fed keeps rates sticky and real wages compress. The tariff / deportation cycle has real friction costs that don't show up in headline inflation. Consumer confidence lags earnings because people live on paychecks, not equity portfolios
