This Week’s Chart, Mapped and Decoded

The Great Divergence

This chart compares the S&P 500 (black) and total U.S. job openings (blue), two indicators that moved closely together until diverging sharply after the launch of ChatGPT.

  • What we see: Since late 2022, job openings have fallen while the S&P 500 has surged to new highs.

  • Why it matters: Productivity gains from AI may be decoupling market growth from traditional labor demand. The link isn’t causal or certain, but the timing is worth noting.

  • Implication for wealth-building: Capital is flowing toward technology and efficiency plays, not labor-heavy sectors.

📊 Market Maneuvers

This Week’s Market Terrain

  • 🌌 Meta-Signal: Markets reward doing more with less. Growth alone isn’t enough and efficiency is becoming the real edge.

  • 🪙 Bitcoin: Held near $101K amid ETF inflows and jobs-report uncertainty

    💥 The digital asset remains battle-ready, though volatility is elevated

  • 🥇 Gold: Recovered above $4,000 per ounce as safe-haven flows emerged while banks reduced targets

    💥 Structural support is intact despite recent pullback

  • 📈 Equities: Futures slid after warnings of a 10-15% correction amid lofty tech valuations

    💥 Discipline matters now more than momentum

  • 💵 Dollar (DXY): Extended gains amid rate-cut doubts and safe-haven demand

💰 Wealth in Action

One Trade to Sharpen Your Edge

Reliable Dividend Core Position

Investing in dependable dividend ETFs matters now because when markets waver and valuations feel stretched, cash-flow generating assets provide both defense and momentum. A steady income stream grants you sovereignty in uncertain terrain while you wait for the next move.

  • Implementation: Allocate a small position into the Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF (SCHD), chosen for its history of dividend growth and relatively low expense ratio

  • Reward: Provides a blend of income and core‐equity exposure, earning yield while participation remains in the market

  • Guardrail: Because yields aren’t guaranteed and valuations can still stretch, size the position, monitor payout trends, and avoid chasing when rates climb

Income plays are not just a safety net, they are a powerful weapon for building lasting wealth.

🌱 Fresh Terrain

One New Investment Reshaping the Landscape

  • What it is: The First Trust Indxx Critical Metals ETF (Ticker: FMTL), a newly-launched fund focused on companies that mine and process metals critical to clean energy and tech infrastructure

  • Why it matters: As the shift to solar, electric vehicles, and high-tech manufacturing accelerates, the raw-material supply chain becomes a strategic battleground for wealth

  • What to watch: Watch for regulatory hurdles, mining project execution delays, and whether the fund's holdings genuinely support long-term demand rather than hype

But what can you actually DO about the proclaimed ‘AI bubble’? Billionaires know an alternative…

Sure, if you held your stocks since the dotcom bubble, you would’ve been up—eventually. But three years after the dot-com bust the S&P 500 was still far down from its peak. So, how else can you invest when almost every market is tied to stocks?

Lo and behold, billionaires have an alternative way to diversify: allocate to a physical asset class that outpaced the S&P by 15% from 1995 to 2025, with almost no correlation to equities. It’s part of a massive global market, long leveraged by the ultra-wealthy (Bezos, Gates, Rockefellers etc).
