The solution is not on increasing interest rate, the solution is on robust supply chain, and labor. Increase interest rate will make it worst!
when the only tool you have is a hammer, all you see is nails.
Increased interest rates mean people literally pay more than a dollar for a dollar, making the value of said dollar increase overtime because the receiver will hold majority eventually.
Many companies will skip layoffs, and go directly to bankruptcy when they can’t rollover their bond payments.
*and all those dollar based corporate bonds won’t be paid. That QE money will vaporize. The big worry are Chinese dollar based bonds a lot of these will not be paid, watch your 401k go south fast.
real fast, little past schedule from gov pouring cash in. and now selling no surprise, working as planned stealing all the boomers 401s
1930’s depression-1974 gas lines/ inflation- 1918 pandemic-1968 race riots- 1960’s threat of nuclear war…THEY are pretty much are throwing the kitchen sink @ the People- Shek- n – awe Trauma?HERE IN OAKLAND, A VAN PULLED UP 2 KIDS Jumped OUT, ONE WITH A GUN , pistol whip a security guard & stole his phone, wallet & Vehicle…i was watching, powerless to intervene.
The security guard didnt have a weapon. Oh I forgot the libs only gave him a whistle. Conceal Carry
DON’T Allow your government to create the conditions where you and your family slowly starve to death. In God We Trust? yeeea right.
People aren’t buying when inventory is not present. People are not willing going to take on debt due to interest rates. Many took pay cuts, or forced to take lower paying jobs. Companies are still cutting back on staff in face of uncertainty. Inflation is causing most to pull funds to cover gas, utilities and struggling to house and feed their families.
🤣🤣
@Hugh Jass What are you talking about lol – everyone got a pay raise and there are jobs galore…
@Rajeev Samuel On paper, but when you really try to get a job… they won’t call anyone. This is what is happening more than people are reporting. There are always jobs, always. But to get one is harder ..
@Karma Sutra yea maybe if you have a degree in basket weaving…
Its all about oil idiots. And it will only go up. Thanx Greenies. Lets Go Brandon
What is she (Lori) talking about? retail was dead during pandemic and stocks were parabolic! Blah! Blah! Blah! They don’t know either! I thought the FED said Everything’s going to be Okay!?LOL
bro the fed says everythings going to be ok because they are rushing home to hit the sell button before you do
@Richard Yu Exactly! Ain’t that the truth! $o true!
Recession is already here.
Bingo
yup this exactly what all the well informed have been talking about, brace for bubble and all that
Cash on sidelines and start dipping into some things
3% earnings increase with an 8% inflation is a net 5% earnings decrease.
Amen. So many “pundits” choose to miss this fact.
So now we get to see smaller companies go bankrupt, while the big boys survive this storm and come out the other end stronger
Lack of emotion control in human can be seen here, money games. Americans borrowed a lot, are still believing that they can borrow more, although they are nervous for being told “repay the debt.”.
It’s obvious that these people have their heads in the sand. Energy and fertilizer are going to the moon.
shorting made soooo easy
Covid taught people to save.
Not all unfortunately
Consumers are not holding back; they are barely holding on.
the best way to position yourself is to hold short term bonds less than 3 months or just flat cash. short term bonds arent as subject to interest rate risk as long term bonds. don’t worry about saying oh but inflation is 8 percent im gonna lose 8 percent of my value. yeah and if you invest in anything your gonna lose 25-30 percent of your value hold the cash and youll make up the inflation loss when you buy cheap assets after they fall
Do you agree with going into positions over the next few months.. or are you thinking hold short term bonds like a bond fund and wait?’or just stick it all in a 1-2% bank account and wait?
Many are now saying 3,300 s&p so seems to be the new concensus by August
@Karma Sutra i cant give reccomendations on what to do I am not a financial advisor. I can just tell you what my viewpoint is based on my comment above and you can apply or not apply what I think. Theres many different things you can do all a variation of holding cash. short term bonds straight cash high interest savings account sofi has a pretty good yield of 1.25 for bank accounts or stable coin yield, me personally i stick with collateralized stable coins like usdc and gemini coin- I wouldn’t get involved in algorithmic stable coins they all have failed and all will fail due to death loop spirals. you can also find corporate bonds with good balance sheets that are expiring in less than 3 months
@Barstool Clips Thank you 🙂
To build wealth and gain financial independence. Start Investing, that’s the only true way to accumulate great income and stay rich always. Really spent my 30’s and 40’s investing in stock and real estate. That’s the best decision I made earlier. Lately, discovered crypto now and life feels more good and easier
Nobody wants to take actions, tell someone to start a business with 4000, they will complain it’s too much. Buy a new phone with that same amount, no problem. Watch Netflix 2hr, they would want more episodes. Learn a new skill in 2 hours? No it’s too much. Life is all about choice stop blaming the lack of opportunity.
@Joseph Gill I wish I could like this comment a million times. I’m retired and I know the kind of struggle am facing because I didn’t do the needful. My finances are in a mess right now. Any good tips would really go a long way in shaping my life.
@Vivian gall Generally, achieving a productive investment requires a higher knowledge. For this reason, it’s best advised to get a financial consultant who would guide you and be a solid support structure while investing. I operate with a licensed professional and it has been a promising experience with her, so far my investments has always yielded excellent returns
who is she and how can i contact her>
Trump introduced standardized bribes and kick backs to the Global supply chains. The USA must have a universal reversal of everything Trump did as President. Convict Trump of everything he did then nullify his presidency is the only possibility. Otherwise each individual Bribe and kickback must be investigated by both nation’s involved. Every contract, law, agreement…. must be ripped up going back to 2016.
Lady in red- inflation isn’t coming down and won’t any time soon
Thanks captain obvious
Every year for the last 5 years, at least once a year, all the prognosticators have come out screaming about a recession or worse a depression. Last time it was what, the inverted yield curve, can’t remember before that, probably Covid. A recession is inevitable and each of them will come back on, play clips and claim, look I predicted it. REALLY!!!
This is kind of long, so I want to say this briefly up front. The way store shelves are stocked affect whether they have what you want or not. Every time you’re in a frozen food section at a store, if all the bags of wings and such,
a r e laying on the shelves, and in disarray complain to the managers, and do it every time you go. Ask them how they know what needs to be ordered when everything is in a big pile or something to that effect. I work at a local store in the Frozen Foods department and I can tell you that there is a lot of merchandise that’s just not making it to the sales floor. The place I work is more concerned about rules and processes then they are customer service. I was told today that I wasn’t allowed to stock certain things even if I saw they were out of stock, unless a manager tells me to, because that’s not my department. If the bunker where the frozen chicken wings go , that people buy about a ton of everyday is empty ignore that and scan claims in your department. So they want me in the back of the store scanning claims that can be scanned Anytime by anybody, while customers look at empty freezers. A customer can’t even ask me if we have any in the back when I’m scanning claims. Also, the fact that they can’t keep good hard workers because they push the good people out by not pressing others to do their share of the work. It’s the good people who go in the back to get things they see are out of stock, without being told to do so by a manager. Two of my managers today told me that they can’t make anybody do the job right. The job has everything to do with inventory flow. I think it’s the kids think they know more than the parents’ syndrome. We are supposed to use guidelines established by a company that started with one store and is now a mega Corporation, but now local managers are pretty much throwing process guidelines out the window, and going with the faster is better model. It used to be that local people not even managers could change a process. The guidance said to stick to process guidelines because they serve a purpose and faster is not always better. Other people were talking about shortages on the shelves. I can give you a perfect example of a guideline that is no longer followed that affects inventory. Bags of anything in the Frozen Foods Department are supposed to be stood upright. The reason is to keep them in their location. When you lay bags down and stack them, sooner or later they are going to slide around. The reason this is important is that when they do something called the outscan, they can only Scan locations where they see are empty, so you might have some bags that have slid into an empty location, that doesn’t get scanned, and that flavor of wings doesn’t get ordered , because the person scanning can’t even pick up the bag and see what it is, but if the bags had been stood upright when they were put on the Shelf, there would be very few places where they had somehow gotten into the wrong location. The reason rules say to only scan locations that don’t have anything in them, is because there is a reasonable expectation that other processes are being conducted properly. Things such as zoning as you stock, standing bags upright, making sure you’re putting your items in the right location. Our shelves look horrible because overnight do zero zoning, and the outscan is done Monday morning. I here employees even managers in our store pondering why the shelves or so empty, but at the same time not doing what they’re supposed to do to ensure a good flow of inventory. The only way you can truly know your inventory numbers is when everything is where it’s supposed to be. It’s also the only way to ensure that customers get what they come for when it’s in the store. Many many times when you have gone to the store and couldn’t find what you went for, it was behind something else, or it was in the wrong place, or in the back. The bottom line is that guidelines that have insured good injury flow for years are now ignored. If the manager will look at an empty bunker where bags of chicken should be, and tell an employee to go to the back and scan claims even though there is chicken in the freezer, then they certainly aren’t worried about whether or not your favorite frozen food comes in on the next truck.
