Hey @sammyk do you know about the PMI? Know what it is? If you do, then you know it's one of THE most reliable indicators of our economic health. If you've never heard of it before, here's a brief refresher


excerpt
The Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) is an index of the prevailing direction of economic trends in the manufacturing and service sectors. It consists of a diffusion index that summarizes whether market conditions, as viewed by purchasing managers, are expanding, staying the same, or contracting. The purpose of the PMI is to provide information about current and future business conditions to company decision makers, analysts, and investors.

Do you now what the latest forecast on the purchasing manager's index was for the economy? I'll 100% guarantee you do not, because you're such a media mind numbed shill for the Democrat Socialist party of America. :rolleyes:

We had a light recession in Q1, Q2. The real recession comes next year.
Maybe but most recessions last about 10 months when they do happen. If you look over the past 60 years and follow economics, we are due for a recession. With over a decade of low interest rates and crazy economic growth it makes sense that if we were to have a recession it will be soon. But the report is good news before the holidays when there normally is good economic news due to holiday spending

@sammyk FYI...here's the latest PMI forecast for September. It's one of the lowest in recent measurements! Wonder why they don't tell you this on your favorite corporate media propaganda network?


synopsis
The U.S. ISM manufacturing index dropped more than anticipated in September and the details weren't pretty. The ISM manufacturing index fell from 52.8 in August to 50.9 in September, compared with our below-consensus forecast of 51.6. The main concern is the detail that new orders fell below their neutral threshold of 50, coming in at 47.1 in September.

Look at these trends...it's dismal!


Again...business and investors are NOT optimistic about our near term growth, despite the government/media propaganda you're hearing today about an increase in our GDP.


excerpt:

Summary​

  • The October S&P Global flash PMI surveys present a picture of the economy at increased risk of contracting in the fourth quarter at the same time that inflationary pressures remain stubbornly high.
  • The service sector has seen a markedly worse performance than manufacturing in the past three months, and has also seen optimism for the year ahead slump sharply amid pressures from the rising cost of living and tightening financial conditions.
  • Although price pressures picked up slightly in the service sector due to high food, energy and staff costs, as well as rising borrowing costs, increased competitive forces meant average prices charged for services increased at a slightly reduced rate.
You don't think Americans are feeling this, and will kick your friends in the Democrat Socialist party of America out of power in two weeks to correct their mismanagement of this economy?

@sammyk ....obviously frightened about his Socialist friend's future

Here come those Trumper Republicans.....

When it's been a negative for months, it's not hard to have some growth.
Well that is true but good news is good news. And again with the holidays nearing next quarter very well may have gains as well

OK fair enough...post back to me the latest thing I quoted from Trump or "QANON" (or whatever that was you spelled)

If you can't back that up, an apology would be nice but I'll settle for you disappearing from here in two weeks after your *** is handed to you and your friends on the Left.

Not really but hey I will take the good news about Q3 being solid
The problem, sooner or later the oil from the reserve will run out and then the Saudis will get even with biden and drop production even more. I didn't think anybody would be worse than Carter and Obama, Biden has supplanted them at the bottom of the poll.

You are completely ignorant of what's been going on. There's no emergency and the oil should have been left in the reserve. It's a man made issue since Biden stopped production in the areas where the oil is.

Do you believe?
  • That there is a deep state conspiracy
  • That there is a gloablist cabal running the world
  • There is a group of Democrats that run a pedophile ring
  • That 9/11 was a hoax
  • That the election was stolen

So this is how you define yourself as a Centrist? OK I'll give you an easy one you can either tell the Truth about or lie.

Currently in several States like Arizona, Tennessee, Florida, Texas, North Dakota, Virginia, and many others, there are successful efforts underway to remove Government monopolies on education, to transfer responsibility for those education dollars to parents and/or private or local school boards. What is the "Centrist" position on those initiatives?

Question: Do you favor school choice vouchers and decentralizing government control of school systems? If you do not, what is your "centrist" position regarding the Government monopoly over Education?

Please explain your answer as it relates to your stated position of being a "centrist"?

So if October continues to be white hot in the stock market it will help erase all losses for the previous 6 months. That's good news

I have moderate political views and vote for both Reps and Dems. You nut jobs think I'm a liberal...probably classify all Dems as liberals and some Reps that don't bow to Trump, because I give you **** for being Trumpers, but that is not the case. Believe it or not.

Deep State conspiracy? Defined by what? If I may define it, I do believe there is an entrenched unelected bureaucracy that works to assure and preserve its own power. I believe they work against anyone who threatens their control or power...I believe that is one reason why Trump was so universally hated. He owed them no allegiance. The "deep State" includes bureaucrats and politically appointed apparatchiks in the DOJ, (including the FBI) DOD, CIA, DEA, NSA, EPA, FDA, the DNC/RNC. Anything or anyone who threatens their power will be attacked. The person working as a clerk in the Supreme Court who leaked that draft of the Justices' intended ruling on overturning Roe v Wade is an example of a "deep State operative". The "insurance policy" Lisa Paige and Peter Strzok talked about to deny Trump his victory is another example of deep State operatives working to secure their power. Why hasn't the FBI sought to track that individual down as aggressively as they tracked down all of the folks who attended the protest rally on Jan 6th? Why haven't Paige and Strozk been arrested and/or charged with sedition? Hope that answers it for you?

Globalist cabal running the World? I would characterize it as a conglomeration of economic and political interests who reject individual Nation States and their Sovereign control in favor of a New world order one World Government run by specialized corporate and political interests. They operate not in favor of the interests of individual nation States, but as a Global conglomeration of financial and politically aligned interests. An example of their outreach is the WTO, and the WHO.

A group of Democrats who run a pedophile ring? I believe there are many Democrats (and some Republicans) who are pedophiles. Jeffrey Epstein knew many of them, which is why he was killed IMO. His assistant Ghislaine Maxwell knew them too. So did Harvey Weinstein, who recruited many of them for his Leftist Hollywood friends who also knew he was a pedophile and a pervert. Democrats are silent as perverts seek to sexualize little kids with "drag Queen story time hour" and gender reclassifications for pre-pubescent teens. Sickening.

9/11 was a hoax. No I believe that was a State sponsored attack on this country by Islamic Jihadists sworn to our destruction. I believe they were sponsored and paid for by radical Islamists in Iran, Afghanistan, Yemen, and other radical Islamic nations who sponsor terror. I believe they have sleeper cells operating in America today.

The election was stolen. I believe there was massive fraud in the '20 election. I do not believe Joe Biden won 80 million legitimate votes. There were too many anomalies, too many unanswered questions, and his support was virtually non existent both during his campaign from the basement as well on the trail. As a record vote winning candidate he had absolutely no coat tails for his down ballot candidates which has NEVER happened before. While I do not think it was "stolen" I also do not believe all of his votes were legal or legitimate. Was it enough to keep him from winning? Unfortunately, we have refused to investigate all of the claims of fraud or the origins of all of those votes now proven to be fraudulent to accurately determine if he legitimately won? Why was that not at least something we as a nation were not willing to resolve for the good of the Republic and to protect the integrity of our electoral process?

Now I hope I've answered you to your satisfaction. I'm still waiting for you to define for me what makes you a "centrist"?

He's not a centrist. He votes on emotion and is a follower (bleater). This past election it was hatred. There is a party for hatred. He can't cite examples because it would expose and contradict himself in so many ways.

A bleater is gonna bleat and do as it's told.
