So how does that explain the 820k downward revision in 2024?

People have been cutting back a while now. Inflation and uncertainty keeps people from spending.

Stagflation for some. Economic boom for others.

Retail sales in 2025 grew at a pace widely assessed by economists as normal.

Where is the evidence that consumers aren’t spending money?

The opposite is true. Savings rates are going down as people splurge.

We aren’t in a stagflationary environment:

1) gdp is growing at the historical average of 2.5% annually
2) real wages are growing
3) UE rate and jobless claims are hovering at record lows
4) inflation itself is falling, although still marginally above the 2% target

The one data point that is worth monitoring is monthly job gains, but it’s not translating into economy as a whole

What jobs are being cut right now due to AI? Be specific


Washington Post just cut 50% of its workforce I assume because they realized AI slop could do most of their work.

How can we blame this on Obama and Biden? It's their fault, clearly.

Nah.
Neither 4.4% GDP growth nor sub-2.5% inflation play to that.
But Gen Z unemployment is a major issue.
5.8% for college grads, 10.8% overall sucks.

Any negative news for Trump is fake. Any positive news is correct.
