We know what’s coming and we are prepared.
🇺🇸 President Trump just announced the "tariff dividend," a payment of AT LEAST $2,000 per American.
We expect 85%+ of US adults to receive this, resulting in $400+ BILLION handed out.
All as US debt nears $40 trillion.
What's next? Let us explain.
This morning, President Trump made the below announcement:
A dividend of at least $2,000 per person will be paid, EXCLUDING "high income people."
The economic implications of such a massive "stimulus"-like payment are huge.
Especially with markets at record highs.
First, who will be receiving this payment?
Let's take a look at the most recent stimulus payment, the March 2021 $1,400 stimulus check.
Full payments were only made to:
Single filers making up to $75,000, households making up to $112,500, and married earners up to $150,000.
Now, let's apply this same criteria to 2025:
Currently, there are ~220 million US adults who fit these income criteria.
The top ~15% of earners would be excluded as "high income."
220 million x $2,000 = ~$440 BILLION handed out.
And, the check could be larger than $2,000.
These payments come at a time where the wealth gap is at record highs.
In Q2 2025, consumers in the top 10% of the income distribution accounted for 49.2% of total US spending.
This marks the highest level in data going back to 1989.
But, there's a big problem here.
As seen in 2021, stimulus checks massively boost spending.
However, the one-time "boost" is followed by a long period of high inflation.
Following the last round of stimulus, US inflation neared 10%.
Now, inflation is back on the rise, at 3%, and more stimulus is coming.
Trump also states that after this payment, tariff revenue will go toward paying US debt.
Over the last 5 years alone, total US debt has surged +$10 TRILLION.
Since the government shutdown began on October 1st, US debt is up +$600 billion.
Can we really afford more stimulus?

🇺🇸⛽️ Soaring diesel prices rip across US economy
Rising fuel costs threaten new jolt of inflation ahead of November’s midterm elections
A surge in diesel prices is dealing a powerful blow to industrial America, pushing up costs for businesses and consumers across the US ahead of midterm elections.
The pump price of diesel — the lifeblood of the economy because of its essential role in powering industry and agriculture — hit $5.47 a gallon on Tuesday, approaching its all-time high of $5.82 as wars in the Middle East and Europe hobble production and throttle global supplies.
Prices have jumped 8 per cent in the past month while the gap between the cost of diesel and crude oil, known as the “crack spread”, has hit a record high in recent days in a sign of the deepening supply shock.
The price surge has driven up costs for truckers and farmers that are set to ricochet through the broader economy, reigniting inflation and squeezing already thinly stretched American consumers.
...
US diesel crack surpasses $100 a barrel for the first time on supply disruptions
... and the supply of refined fuels is already nearly exhausted. A hard landing is visible ahead, for farmers, for trucking, and ... well, for everything that requires food (people) and energy (the entire economy).
These are very likely the final days of relative normalcy during which to prepare. Get ready.
