What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

A report from the JPMorganChase Institute found that wealthy Americans are increasingly using investment gains to cover the rising costs of everyday life. The share of Americans moving money from investment accounts to checking accounts has nearly quadrupled since 2015, rising from 2.4% to 8.2%. Among the top 10% of earners, this share rose from 6.6% in 2015 to 20.3% in 2026.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The trend is supported by the finding that real hourly earnings declined by 0.3% between August 2025 and August 2026. The report suggests this behavior supports discussions of an emerging K-shaped economy, where high-income Americans pull ahead as lower-income households lag behind.
