Prime age participation rate dropping in the US 📉

Fewer people in their peak working years are in the labor force. This matters for:

• Consumer spending power
• Fed rate decisions
• Risk asset flows

When prime workers check out, liquidity tightens and disposable income for degen plays shrinks. Keep an eye on this macro signal—it's not just a jobs number, it's a leading indicator for how much dry powder retail has left.

Bullish for deflationary assets if this trend continues. Bearish for consumer-driven sectors.
