    rates won't rise much longer. By year end FED will retreat.

    Only if we are headed for a deep recession, and that does not appear to be in the picture.

    hope for the best, prepare for the worst.

    the thing about recessions - the way they are measured you do not know they are here until they have been here, We're here.

    Hello,

    I won't guess about recession or not.

    BUT I think the jobs number showed our domestic US economy is stronger than the equity markets have priced in.

    Rate increases will continue until inflation improves
    (to tangentially paraphrase the quote attributed to Duke Wellington "Floggings will continue until morale improves.")

    The time lag between Federal rate increases and when they affect the US/global economy will make for a bumpy economy. Keep your hands strong.

    The economy added a higher than expected 372,000 jobs in June. Revisions subtracted 74,000 from previous reports. Employment declined by 315,000.

    Sitting on the sidelines "rooting" for something to happen won't change the outcome.
    The democratic way to affect change is to point out the flaws in the system.

    No. Pointing is what Karen's do. And there's several Karens on this forum.

    Everyone knows the flaws, but none of these Karen's ever proposed a fix or remedy. The Democratic way is to fix it if it's broken, not stand in a circle complaining.

    Why dont these Karen's ever propose a fix? They just hype rhetoric. Is that all they know? Must be, otherwise they would try to educate and effect change.

    Cheerleaders sit on the sidelines and root for something to happen. These whiners are just cheerleaders. Blitz is dead on accurate

    These whiner Karen's should try to be players, rather than cheerleaders. But no, they are afraid to get hit. They cry that they are under attack. Get in the game Karen!!!

    Push come to shove, The Fed will protect the Stock Market over the economy and inflation because political donations come from those with the most interest in the markets.

    Call out those who misrepresent and distort fact. Call out those who create "alternative facts". Call out those who disseminate mis/disinformation. Bad policy does not destroy a nation, but ideology based on lies does.

    Where is this "God's country" that you speak of? What do you mean when you say "alleged"? Most of us care and we will be voting this November. :#

    Inflation like wages is a lagging indicator (sans Union contracts) so, sell now, reap the purchase harvest later. Kinda like shorting the market.

    Inflation does not lag. It occurs the moment the price tag is replaced.
