Where is that retard who was on here yesterday saying that "the US is suffering huge right now but it'll pay off in the long term, other countries suffering even more! trump is a big brain".
I already responded to him in depth, but my last piece is that this exactly describes the economy when Biden was president & inflation got a little out of control because of supply chain constraints, low interest rates, stimulus, and INVESTING IN OUR OWN DOMESTIC MANUFACTURING CAPABILITIES.
The US was positioned way better than the rest of the world, which was generally struggling much more than us. And has basically soft landed into a situation that wherein the US was stronger relative to the rest of the world than it had been in a long, long time. But the temporary pain of that was apparently unbearable to half of the dipshits who actually vote, and all of those gains are in the toilet.
American durable goods production peaked in December of 2024. American imports are down, yet Chinese exports are way up. China's index funds are out performing ours by a ton, especially after accounting for massive USD devaluation since January. Citizens of other western (aka rich) nations are now deciding not to do business with the US when they can avoid it. We're so much weaker than we were a year ago.
Seems like a lot of money is being spent trying to prop them up / keep the money train a-rollin'.
I'm trying to work out when the crash will be and what the cause will be - despite it being impossible to do so. But it's fun to attempt.
