I heard an interesting leading indicator story on Stephanie Ruhle's show this morning

A guest she had on reported that banks, without fanfare, have cut back dramatically on the money they're squirreling away to cover losses. They expect to stop in about 6 months or so.

The implication is they think the economy will be better by then. Not the stock market. The economy.

I'm sorry, I did not get the guy's name who was saying this but he's one of her financial reporter buddies.

We'll definitely see an improvement about then, but some damage is deep. Joe and Kamala have a helluva task.
