[Tom Lee: We are in a misunderstood super cycle]
In the past three years, the S&P 500 has soared over 80%, yet the mainstream has been consistently bearish. From "yield curve inversion → recession warning", to "stagflation reappearing", and then to "the end of the Fed's tightening"...
The result? The Air Force was slapped in the face wave after wave.
Fundstrat's legendary analyst Tom Lee remains firmly bullish—he believes that:
We are not at the end of a bubble, but at the beginning of a misunderstood super cycle.

2️⃣ Misusing the 70s template. The US currently does not have stagflation conditions: labor is cooling down, the housing market is weakening, PCE is only 3.2%, and companies are still steadily generating income.
Supercycle Dual Engine
1️⃣ Millennials enter their peak spending age (30–45 years), bringing 20 years of growth dividends.
