THE WAGE CHART CRASH: The Hidden Data Ahead of Wednesday's CPI!

The economy lost 23,000 jobs while the headline unemployment rate fell to 4.1%, creating the most confusing economic signal of the year ahead of Wednesday's critical CPI inflation report. In today's Wall Street Truthbomb, Chief Investment Officer Mark Malek reveals why cooling wage growth is doing more to fight inflation than the Federal Reserve is willing to admit.

Mark breaks down the shadow data showing average hourly earnings slowing to 3.2% year-over-year while U-6 underemployment sits at 7.9% with 4.8 million Americans stuck in involuntary part-time work. Discover why 3 hawkish Fed officials dissented for a rate hike during a negative payroll month, why real final sales to private buyers hit 3.9%, and why gold's 7.8% surge is signaling a massive market divergence.
