Serious question. Do you think that gains on the Dow mean the economy isn't threatened?

It has nothing to do with them being wrong. The fact of the matter is MSM was trying to make something out of nothing (and many fell for it). The inverted yield curve (for several hours) is not an accurate forecast of a looming recession and was just an excuse to incite fear in the ignorant masses.

This Nobel Peace Prize Economist .......
“It really does now look like President Donald J. Trump, and markets are plunging. When might we expect them to RECOVER ? A first-pass answer is NEVER… So we are very probably looking at a global recession, with NO END IN SIGHT." ......... Paul Krugman Economic Nobel Peace Prize winner of the New York Times the day after the election. (almost 3 years ago, AND he was NOT pontificating about a “Global recession” 4 years from election night. He was speaking about the onset of an imminent / immediate recession.

"If Trump wins we should expect a big markdown in expected future earnings for a wide range of stocks — and a likely crash in the broader market (if Trump becomes president)." Eric Zitzewitz, former chief economist at the IMF, November 2016.

"Under Trump, I would expect a protracted RECESSION TO BEGIN WITHIN 18 MONTHS. The Former Clinton and Obama chief economist Larry Summers, June 2016.

"Trump would likely cause the stock market to crash and plunge the world into recession." Simon Johnson, MIT economics professor, in The New York Times, November 2016.

"Citigroup: A Trump Victory in November Could Cause a Global Recession", Bloomberg Financial News headline, August 2016.

"I have never seen an election in which the markets have so strong of a view as to what was good and bad about the outcome. And what you saw was the markets rallying yesterday because of the FBI thing on Sunday. And the reason I mention this particularly is if the likely event happens and Trump wins you will SEE A MARKET CRASH OF HISTORIC PROPORTIONS, Steve Rattner, MSNBC economics guru and former Obama Car Czar, October, 2016.

"Wall Street is set up for a major crash if Donald Trump shocks the world on Election Day and wins the White House. New research out on Friday suggests that financial markets strongly prefer a Hillary Clinton presidency and could react with panicked selling should Trump defy the polls and deliver a shocking upset on Nov. 8." Ben White, Politico, October 2016.

............. as you can see many highly respected and even a well known Economic Nobel Peace Prize winner, .............. didn’t know their *** from a hole in the ground.

So we can expect 4% GDP? As predicted by...trump himself.

LOL!

So we’re done discussing the 12 hour “inverted yield curve” and the 75% economists?

 

[79eer]

Serious question. Do you think that gains on the Dow mean the economy isn't threatened?

I think the Stock Market along with historically low unemployment, historically high consumer confidence / spending, among numerous other economic positives leads many to believe the economy is no where near an imminent recession.

Yeah, but isnt it typical that things are at their best just before they decline, by the very definition?

On the flip side I see a lot of red flags in both domestic and international economies that suggest a downturn is likely.

Some day there will be a down turn. In my humble opinion, your hopes and dreams for a near term recession are a pipe dream.

You aren't very smart though.

It's been 10 years we are overdue and trade wars arent going to help it. The juice from the tax cuts are gone and rates are already historically low.

Hell, I heard somebody saying this morning that we should have negative rates, wtf are these people talking about.

 

[atlkvb]

Plus he welches on bets so who cares what he thinks?

 

[79eer]

Probably one those MSM crack economist who was shouting looming recession in regards to the 12 hour inverted yield curve.

 

[atlkvb]

The Left is hoping for an economic slowdown now more than they were hoping for "collusion" and "obstruction". They didn't get that..."no collusion", "no obstruction"...so an economic downturn is their last best hope for political survival.

But then there's always their example of Venezuela they have as a last resort.

 

[atlkvb]

Probably one those MSM crack economist who was shouting looming recession in regards to the 12 hour inverted yield curve.

It's the "new definition" of a recession. An 'inverted yield curve' lasting more than 12 hours. [eyeroll]

 

[79eer]

It's been 10 years we are overdue and trade wars arent going to help it. The juice from the tax cuts are gone and rates are already historically low.

Stick to your day job

Some day he'll pay off on a bet he's lost. Maybe that's when we'll have an economic recovery! :scream:

Can we expect another year for you earning a quarter million dollars and not donating a penny to charity?

Roger on the “Trump guy”, ..... have had enough entertainment for night.

I wonder how many of these Leftists fearful of a looming recession actually switched their longer term 10 year bond positions into shorter term 2 year yields? Probably just as many who sent back their tax cut "crumbs". [eyeroll]

 

[atlkvb]

Stick to your day job

Someone pays him? I thought his employer welches on paying him just like he does on his lost bets?

No one knows if there will be a recession before Trump leaves office. "Something out of nothing"? According to the business news I watch, the last 7 recession were preceded by an inverted yield curve but it's not a guarantee of one. The consumer is doing fine so that argues against it. It's too early for your victory dance.

There is much that can be done to work against this left fear tactic. There is room to lower interest rates. The value of the dollar could be adjusted. DJT could ease back a bit on a selective tariff or two.

I don’t believe anything the left media prints anymore. This is probably 75%of California economists. Clearly a scare tactic from the Dem playbook. They should go back to Mueller. If he can find what’s left of his memory.
