  • No, The US Economy Is Not OK

    From macroanchor.substack.com

    We had said that our previous note would be the last one of the year. But writing this from the mountains in Greece during the holidays, we felt it was worth making an exception. Not to revise a call, and certainly not to defend one, but to better understand what the data are actually telling us. Over the past days, our recession view was challenged, constructively, and that challenge is useful. Macroeconomics is not about winning a debate; it is about understanding the mechanisms at work. The latest GDP release does not show a recession. That statement is factually correct, and analytically insufficient. In the ... (full story)

This is liberal media again trying to paint a doomer picture of american economy! and trying to discredit Trump! Time after time the SPY are reaching all time highs under the Trump administration in which the likes of such has never been seen before! If there is no investment, how come SPY is at record highs!? #LiberalLogic

Yeah I've noticed he's an odd fellow, plus he's from Sweden, why get patriotic over the US? I'd give everything to be living in Sweden, or anywhere in Scandinavia. We definitely need less trolls, and people getting personal with others when Forex shouldn't involve emotion.
Thank you again, you have made me laugh a couple of times this year, especially when things don't go the way we want to.

A Merry Christmas and Happy Year to you too mate, a year filled with an abundance of green pips and support!

There is nothing wrong with that. The bad thing is that Trump didn't live up to their expectations and now numbers are not good for Trump. He will be undisputed absolutely the worse ever president of the United States.

As great Gregory Mannarino said:

"these companies know underlying economy is weakening, job market is dead, manufacturing is a zombie, the imports collapsing, literally. Manufacturing here in the Unites States is dead. It's buried. And it's going to get a lot worse. And the dollar collapse. They're using these buybacks to mask the coming earnings deterioration. Moreover, they are leveraging debt to buy back shares.

Why? 1. They know the Fed will cut rates. 2. Currency debasement is accelerating, loss of purchasing power.

Buybacks are number one driver of the SNP to the upside. It's not earnings growth. It's not demand. It's not productivity. It's a zombie. It consumes and consumes and consumes. Not produce. This creates a massive distortion. When the buyback wave stops, what do you think will happen?"

Also, look at the price of oil. Price of oil is collapsing because there is less and less demand due to the slowing economies across the world. Economy is losing jobs, inflation continues to rise. Manufacturing, as Greg said, is dead and buried. In contraction for years now. LEI all negative for years.

No, the US economy is not good. It's terrible.
