What exactly is a K-shaped economy—and why does it matter right now?

On this episode of the Danny Moses show, Danny breaks down the growing divide between high-income and lower-income consumers, the wealth effect driving spending, and the structural risks if the top half of the K starts to weaken.

Then Michael Kantrowitz, Chief Investment Strategist at Piper Sandler, joins to explain his “HOPE” framework.
