In a time of economic volatility, dentists face a crucial choice: stay with the masses at the mercy of the changing economic tides or proactively chart a course to higher ground. The warning signs are clear. According to the ADA Health Policy Institute, confidence among dentists is at a historic low: only 45.8% feel optimistic about their practice’s outlook, and just 34.9% feel confident about the dental sector as a whole...

TBBW: Panic Is Brewing—Why I'm Still Avoiding Wall Street and You Should Too
Investor sentiment—not fundamentals—is what drives financial markets today. If you need evidence, just look at the past decade: we’ve seen stocks climb relentlessly despite sluggish earnings, geopolitical instability, and ballooning debt. But when sentiment shifts, even slightly, the air comes out of the balloon fast and hard. That’s precisely what we’re starting to witness right now. Over the past week, cracks have emerged in investor confidence, and they are deepening...

TBBW: Jobs Report Beats Expectations—But Real Estate Investors Shouldn't Celebrate Yet
The April jobs report was just released, and on the surface, it looks like good news. Nonfarm payrolls came in higher than expected, which on the surface makes the job market look strong—especially considering we’re still dealing with inflation and elevated interest rates.

NewsMax Money: Every Household Needs its Own Doge Program to Thrive in Today's Economy
DODGE, or the Department of Government Efficiency—no matter where you are or what you do, there’s no doubt you’ve heard someone talking about this lately.

NewsMax Money: Biden's Mortgage 'Relief' a Subprime Housing Bubble
If you paid attention in Econ 101, you probably remember that when interest rates climb, sales volume declines, and prices naturally fall. But that’s not happening in today’s market. So what could drive this deviation from the natural market effect that we’ve seen consistently play out for as long as we’ve traced this kind of data?

NewsMax Money: Reshoring Could Solve Our Economic Crisis But Only if We Have the Guts to Stay to the Finish
While the news cycle since the election has been a wild rollercoaster ride, with stories of national impact breaking several times a day, some stories flying just under the radar could have an even greater impact on all of us. Trump’s talk of imposing new tariffs is one story that made major headlines over the past few weeks—a topic that I covered last week—and there’s a subtle but significant aspect of this that I have yet to see anyone discuss...

NewsMax Money: Can Trump's 'Gold Card' Visa Program Solve Our National Debt Crisis?
Last week, President Trump floated an idea to sell what he called the “Gold Card” Visa Program, in which wealthy foreigners seeking entry to America would have the opportunity to purchase a special visa with a whopping price tag of $5 million. Supporters of the idea believe it could eliminate our national debt, and even bring in a hefty profit. At the same time, critics call it exploitative and claim there’s no market for it anyway...
