Amazon just hit the highest price in human history. Dave Conley calls this the largest oil shock in history and notes that nobody is saying "this time it's different" — yet markets keep climbing. Jerremy Alexander Newsome walks through specific chart levels and earnings setups for Apple, Amazon, Google, and Microsoft with actual buy zones, not sentiment. The underlying tension: markets have decoupled from the physical economy because the modern economy is now just pushing zeros and ones around. Dave's political frame caps it — government is betting on electrons over atoms, crypto and AI infrastructure over healthcare and real jobs, while the promise of school-to-career-to-retirement quietly dies for anyone under 30.
