It's the monthly jobs numbers today and they're not going to be pretty and will be possibly the tip of the iceberg as we head into May.

Good morning. The idea behind a K-shaped recovery is that for those who weren't impacted by the pandemic, things would be fine. For those impacted, life would get worse.

That's shaping up in many ways. First, many of the job losses during the pandemic were lower-wage jobs. High-level employees at some companies were able to take mere pay cuts instead, sometimes even getting stock options. With stocks up in the past year but wages flat, the real trouble is coming now thanks to inflation.

According to Apartment List, rents increased 2.3 percent from April to May, the largest increase since the company began tracking those numbers in 2017. While renters are facing higher rent payments, property owners have now had a year to take advantage of ultra-low interest rates to refinance. The longer these imbalances go on in the economy, the more prolonged the K-shape of the recovery is likely to be.

Now here's the rest of the news:

Consumers Remain King, And So Does This Retail Play
Even with the rise of e-commerce, it's clear that some retail companies will continue to dominate the in-person experience. Those companies are usually big box stores, which offer sufficient variety as well as low prices.

That's why it's no surprise that these companies have done well this earnings season. And why so many have also expanded their online presence, even if they're still relatively smaller players there.

Quote of the Day
A lot of companies have done extremely well in this crisis, and good for them. The simple fact is, though, corporate profits are the highest they've been in decades. Workers' pay is at the lowest it's been in 70 years. We have more than ample room to raise worker pay without raising customer prices.
- President Joe Biden, touting the recent strength of the economy, and why he expects wages to rise without causing wage push inflation.
