Show Notes

JPMorgan warns that soaring gas prices could offset the boost from larger tax refunds, with average refunds surging 11% to $3,571. The gas surge, the biggest monthly jump ever, is linked to global supply concerns. New tax breaks, like up to $25,000 off for tips and $6,000 extra for seniors, are driving this windfall. However, if gas prices reach $5 or more, consumer spending could stall, potentially dragging Q1-Q2 2026 growth lower than anticipated.
