🚨 SHOCKING ALERT: U.S. Investors Are Betting Bigger Than Ever! 💥🇺🇸
U.S. margin debt — the money investors borrow to buy stocks — jumped $11.3 billion in December, hitting a record $1.23 trillion. This is the 8th straight monthly increase, and over this period, margin debt has surged $375 billion (+44%).
What’s really eye-opening? Margin debt is now growing 20 percentage points faster than the S&P 500 YoY, the biggest gap since the 2021 meme stock frenzy, and the largest divergence outside 2021 since 2007. Investors are using more leverage than ever, piling on borrowed money to chase gains.
This kind of record-high borrowing makes the stock market extremely sensitive — even small shocks could trigger big swings. The U.S. market may look strong, but behind the scenes, risk is building like never before. ⚠️💸
