U.S. wealth inequality reaches new highs amid a "K-shaped" economy, data shows

A key measure of U.S. wealth concentration, the Gini coefficient, has reached a 60-year high, according to U.S. Bank.

Top 1% holds nearly 32% of wealth.

Bottom 50%: just 2.5%.

The divide is "structural, not temporary," CNBC reported, citing economist Mark Zandi.
