China’s model was built for export dominance through suppressed wages, dorm labor, and elite capture. Manufacturing workers stayed relatively poor so the CCP and connected firms could undercut the world and hoard reserves. The American System we’re rebuilding (Hamilton/Lincoln logic) is the opposite: use tariffs and policy to protect domestic industry while driving high wages + high productivity. Workers buy what they make, creating a virtuous cycle that builds real broad-based wealth instead of just cheap stuff and concentrated power. The reset isn’t “China with flags.” It’s rejecting the low-wage extraction model entirely.

From Checkout Counter to Factory Gate For fifty years America ran a suicidal experiment: ship the factories overseas, buy everything cheap, and call it victory if Walmart shelves stayed full. The financial class got filthy rich. Industrial towns got gutted. We measured "success" by consumption, not production. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent just called it what it was: While America Slept. In his speech this week, Bessent nailed it: "In reducing economics to consumption, we forgot production. We measured abundance at the checkout counter rather than the factory gate." The old way destroyed us. It turned America into a nation that made financial claims instead of real things. We became dependent on rivals for chips, medicine, minerals, and defense basics. Cheap imports masked the rot — hollowed-out communities, lost skills, fragile supply chains, and working-class wages that got replaced by welfare claims and the opioid crisis. Wall Street balance sheets boomed while factory floors died. That wasn't efficiency. It was managed decline. The new path actually rebuilds. Bring production home. Use tariffs to protect American workers instead of subsidizing our own destruction. Build strategic reserves of critical stuff we can't run out of — drugs, minerals, energy. Align trade, industrial, and national security policy so they reinforce each other instead of sabotaging each other. Bessent's line says it all: "Productive capacity is power." This is the old American System returning — Hamilton designed it, Lincoln executed it, we abandoned it for the globalist extraction model. Now it's being restored. The difference is brutal and simple: An economy built on consumption rewards whoever owns the assets. An economy built on production rewards whoever does the work. One hollows out the middle class. The other rebuilds it. America spent fifty years measuring wealth at the checkout counter. That era is over. The factory gate is reopening. share.google/dnUI4VEe9hp5Lv…

Back to the charts. I use fib extensions to plot momentum by plotting divergences. SPY has some momentum left but it's beginning to weaken. Next plots marked in blue. I can't predict price action but I can map momentum.

California’s Energy Crunch: Another Echo of Europe’s Regulatory Stranglehold Most people think of California as the land of tech, Hollywood, and endless sunshine. But right now it’s staring down a self-made energy crisis — and it looks a lot like what’s already hitting Europe.
