The push for “virile” jobs
President Trump puts pressure on a return to factory jobs. Overall, the Americans don’t want it.
Emily Stewart de Bi is one of the most authoritarian and original thinkers about how Trump’s economic policies affect people and businesses in this country.
After his article this week on the question of whether men, in particular, really want the traditionally “male” manufacturing jobs that the president promotes, I looked for his reflections on his pace and the economy wide.
The economic upheaval under President Trump is overwhelming. And yet, you regularly find ways to identify a particular vein and explore it with new dishes to take away. How do you get and sculpt your ideas?
I am lucky that people often come to me with ideas or nuggets – my publishers, my sources, even friends. There is a good chance that if someone could see something and thought: “Huh, it’s weird / interesting / boring / scary”, they are not alone.
I think it is useful to found larger concepts in something more real and tangible. Economy is not a nebulous theoretical concept, that’s what we live day by day. I obviously read the points of sale of normal business, but I also listen to the friend who complains that the bridesmaid dress that she is about to buy has become more expensive because of the prices.
Besides Trump, what other economic trends are fascinating you right now?
There is palpable anger through America in ultronomy and societies that manifest themselves in a really interesting way. I wrote on this subject in my cover of the flight to display the middle class, but you also see it in the demonstrations of Tesla and even small things like consumers abusing return policies. People have the impression of being enjoyed and – good or bad – they find few ways to unleash themselves and reaffirm an agency.
What do you think makes you both worried and the most optimistic about the American economy?
I know it’s cliché, but there is such Uncertainty now that it is difficult to imagine what stability would even look like. If we are entering a recession, there may not be an appetite to Capitol Hill to consolidate the economy, given what happened with post-comfortable inflation.
What gives me hope is that we were “about to be in a recession” for what looks like forever. The economy is resilient and consumers have continued to spend even if they say that everything is terrible. Things feel bad, but maybe it will go? It sounds silly, but it’s hope.

Freshly out of prison for outrage at the congress, Bannon remains an influential force in Trump’s Washington. His podcast is a hot spot on the DC media circuit, attracting conspiracy theorists and leading senators for the appearances of the guests.
Bannon’s dedication to Trump did not hesitate – even if he thinks that Elon Musk “has always been bad”. Bi visited the sprawling villa of Bannon in Arizona, where he thought about his stay in prison and shared his vision of Trump 2028.

Zillow’s fight for lists

Zillow and the brokerage houses have not been successful lately. Some real estate agents are doors and the search site is fighting.
While Zillow collects a certain support for his new rule prohibiting these “secret” lists, one of his rivals thinks that it is only a “play of power”. Anyway, it is clear that the industry is on the precipice of a war of purchasing at home.
Home buyers will always pay the price.

Pink payments and sheets
“Billion” showtime
It is easy to understand the attraction of working in a hedge fund – payments can reach tens of millions of dollars, and at the moment, there are many opportunities for warned merchants to stand out.
The drawback? There is practically no job security. Companies can be quick to cut and replace underperformants. “These are generally not places to build a career,” said a former portfolio director. “It’s a place to survive and be paid while you can.” This play is the second in our series on the way to Wall Street.
What is to work in a hedge fund.
A tax nightmare

A fiscal season, Zak Jason de Bi received a letter from the IRS. He quickly realized that he had spoiled his taxes: he forgot to attach his W-2 and declare his salary on his tax return.
Jason was not alone. Several million Americans fail to properly deposit their taxes each year. He also learned that the system should not be like this.
Play a chicken game with the IRS.
Quote this week:
