The wealthiest sliver of Americans now commands an unprecedented share of the nation\u2019s income.<\/p>\n

This elite group holds a whopping 12% of total US national income, a level more than four times higher than after the 2008 financial crisis, reports<\/a> The Kobeissi Letter, citing data from economists Emmanuel Saez and Gabriel Zucman.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe richest Americans have never controlled this much wealth\u2026<\/em><\/p>\n

National income measures the total income earned across the economy, including wages, business profits, and investment income.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Historical data shows this share stayed below 1% from the 1950s through the 1990s, underscoring how far current levels exceed long-term norms.<\/p>\n

Kobeissi says the surge stems primarily from strong gains in equities and real estate holdings that have disproportionately benefited the highest earners.<\/p>\n

He believes asset owners are the big winners in this environment as record equity market gains and rising real estate prices drive the concentration.<\/p>\n
