Let's dive back into the topics I raised - sorry was quite busy lately ! **The Dot-Com Bubble and Shifting Economic Dynamics** By 2001, distrust in Asian markets led Americans to pour money into U.S. tech companies, inflating the dot-com bubble. When the bubble burst, the Federal Reserve repeated its previous strategy of lowering interest rates to inject cash and stimulate the economy. Disillusioned with the stock market, baby boomers turned to real estate investments—often relying heavily on leverage. As household debts grew, more families required two incomes, pushing many homemakers into the workforce. An aging population further strained the economy, with fewer workers and reduced spending by retirees. This slowdown highlighted how GDP, the Consumer Price Index, and money velocity are deeply tied to demographics.
