Recent trends pairing caviar with chicken nuggets and hot dogs had already created something of an identity crisis for the snooty food. Now, some are bingeing it on the couch, while others are serving it to toddlers. on.wsj.com/3TR9lza

🇺🇸 Consumer sentiment just sank below 2008 and below Covid to the worst reading the survey has ever recorded.
Americans are telling pollsters they’re scared while the stock market keeps acting like nothing is wrong, and those two things rarely stay that far apart for long.
David Lin, host of The David Lin Report, expects a full Hormuz closure to hollow out the real economy even if the S&P barely flinches:
“The economy is going to have massive deterioration.”
Wall Street can ignore a gloomy survey for a while.
It can’t ignore people who stop spending.

Mario Nawfal (@MarioNawfal)🇺🇸 The yield curve is flattening toward zero, and every time that’s happened a recession arrived within two years.
David Lin, host of The David Lin Report, thinks the bond market is now flashing a louder warning than the actual war, and the track record is hard to argue with:
“Every single time the ten year minus the two year yield curve has flattened to zero, a recession follows within two years.”
Nobody in Washington gets to vote on whether that history repeats, which means the only real choice left is how ready people are when it does.

🇺🇸 A lab-made opioid is being sold as natural kratom at gas stations across America
Kratom leaf has been used for centuries in Southeast Asia for energy and pain, and it naturally holds only trace amounts of a compound called 7-OH.
The gummies and shots on gas station counters concentrate that compound in a lab, and the FDA says it can hit up to 13 TIMES HARDER than morphine.
The warning from drug czar Sara Carter comes after two Ole Miss students died in deaths believed to be linked to kratom.
The DEA already moved to schedule 7-OH alongside heroin while leaving the leaf alone, which is exactly the right line.
Until that ban is enforced, a teenager can still grab a SERIOUS opioid next to the beef jerky and Red Bull without showing ID.
