In the past 50 years, the US has created 241 companies worth over $10 billion, compared to just 14 in Europe. Additionally, EU worker productivity has dropped from 95% of US worker productivity in the 1990s to under 80% today. 1
The government is ending penny production due to low demand and high costs—each penny now costs 3.69 cents to make. This move is expected to save $56 million a year. 2
A 65-year-old man can now expect to live to 83, and a woman to nearly 86. There's a 46% chance one person in a 65-year-old couple will live to 95—meaning retirement savings need to last longer than many expect. 3
Investors have poured $437 billion into US exchange-traded funds (ETFs) this year. If the trend continues, 2025 will be a record year. Notably, 30% of the new money went into active ETFs, even though they make up less than 10% of total ETF assets. 4
