Q1 Earnings Season, Bitcoin Sell Off & A Deep Dive on Capital Gains Taxes

This week, I’ve got 3 major financial headlines for you…

1 - earnings season continues to fuel recovery hopes, with 25% of S&P 500 companies reporting, and over 80% of them beating expectations. How does that compare to usual earnings season?

2 -  If earnings season is going so well… why was the market flat last week?

3 - after last week’s deep dive on the housing market, what did the data for March released this week say about the current market?

A bonus headline for you - what’s up with Bitcoin? The leading cryptocurrency is down 20% from its prior week high. What’s driving it?

… after that, I’m going to do a deep dive on the capital gains tax, given it caused such a fuss in this week’s financial markets. What is President actually proposing? Why is he proposing it? And how does it fit in with tax policy historically and globally?
