Hope they're right.

They don't want you holding all of your money in cash so of course "everything is going to be just fine".

And all that consumer spending is being funded by what?

Debt.

People's behavior has remained largely unchanged and they're bridging the gap with consumer debt.


Reports are that people under 30 are living at home with their parents in much greater multitudes now. That gives them more disposable income and they are fueling the economy.

Debt is increasing, but I think that’s more a product of inflation hitting people living in the margins and everyone using credit cards now for rewards instead of cash, checks, etc.

I’ve heard that we are going into a recession for two years now. Will be interesting to see what happens.

We won’t have a “recession,” because we’ll keep changing the definition.

What he meant was "we, the executives at Bank of America, make enough money that we won't feel the recession therefore we won't have one."

Let’s stick with the two quarters of negative real GDP. I’ll give you that one.

In that case, and by that definition, the economy is doing pretty well. Real GDP has grown between 2-3.2% annualized in each quarter since that recession in 2022, and its likely going to be north of 3% for the 3rd quarter of 2023 that ends this month.

Overlay govt spending on those GDP numbers. GDP is up 5% over pre-COVID govt spend is 20% higher, private sector is struggling but govt money pumping into selected industries is a good way to prop the number up significantly.

The “recession” last year trailed a big falloff in govt spending by exactly 1 quarter, then govt spending shot back up and the recession suddenly vanished.

Essentially, just as with the employment numbers that are constantly being revised after painting an overly optimistic picture…They cook the books. Industries that rely on consumers lending(autos, houses, boats, RV, equipment) all getting hammered plus the section 179 phase out combined with high interest rates will hurt those sectors even more. Meanwhile govt is bankrolling EV plants, infrastructure projects etc and enacting policies that push up energy prices causing boom in many industries.

Charles Payne talked a bit about this earlier today.

So much money got pumped into the system nothing makes sense.

I'm shorting the market currently while only holding shares of OXY.

The country/economy has been on the downhill side of something bad since before Covid became a thing here. Before Covid, even with little Hitler, who was reborn and placed in office, it was pretty good. Now it’s billions for war, but not much about the thousands illegally crossing the border on a daily basis. This country is broken and there ain’t no fixing it.
