M2 Money Supply Decline Signals Potential Economic Trouble

Despite a recent surge in the stock market, predicting its short-term future is impossible, even though experts try. However, certain economic indicators can hint at potential market movements. Currently, one such indicator, the U.S. money supply (specifically M2), is flashing warning signs. While M2, which includes easily accessible funds like cash and checking accounts as well as assets requiring slightly more effort to access like savings accounts, has historically been stable, it is now experiencing a decline, which is unusual and potentially signals economic trouble ahead.
