  1. Egypt, South Africa, Nigeria, Ghana, Cameroon, Senegal, Algeria, and Saudi Arabia have begun withdrawing their national gold reserves from the United States.

    The withdrawals are part of a broader trend reflecting growing concerns over the stability of the American economy and a move towards diversifying risk exposure.

  2. Biden has to recognize how bad inflation is. If he doesn't he may lose the election. Low and middle class people are very upset that basic necessities have gone up 100% – 200%. It's not getting better. It's the elephant in the room and I realize a president is limited to what he can do … but it needs recognized and addressed.

  3. All of the unions in the skilled trades are hiring. These are all $30 an hour plus jobs. I have never seen this before in my 57 years. My children all have good jobs and my grandson has a skilled trades job with me at the company I work for. Both my kids own their own home and my 19-year-old grandson is working on his credit to buy his own house.

  4. Certainly. Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) are popular for long-term investments due to their diversified nature. ETFs offer exposure to a wide range of assets, such as stocks, bonds, or commodities, which can help reduce risk. Some top choices for long-term investing include broad market index ETFs, sector-specific ETFs, and bond ETFs, as they provide potential for growth and income over an extended period while minimizing the risk associated with individual stocks.

  5. What could be better than 20% inflation in the last two years. Workforce still not up to pre covid levels. Lower median income. Two wars. Record debt. Hard to beat that.

  6. The US has always had the greatest economy. We don't compare ourselves to others. We are the measuring stick. What a con job by the media arm of the Democrat party.

  7. 99 Cent Only stores went out of business, all of them.

    Commercial Real Estate is over, soon to be the banks' demise. The consumer can't afford to eat out, shop retail, pay rent, or fill up their tank.

    Car loans, mortgages, and businesses loans have almost halted. Car repos are at all time highs and quality of vehicles on the road is deteriorating.

    Credit card debt is out of control.

    National debt and interest on it is exploding out of control.

    Real GDP (when adjusted for inflation and deficit spending) is very negative.

    Does that sound like a healthy economy?

  9. This guy is either clueless, or complicit in the destruction of the nation. I tend to think it’s the later. The hubris of some of these guys is unfathomable!

  10. Because we reonshoring manufacturing. It’s the cause of inflation. So what? Deficit spending aswell. We are reinvesting in US. ‘scuse the pun. The are withdrawing from the global world they have to learn how to get along with other. As long as regional wars don’t become a threat to us we won’t do much. Israel will help the Saudis. Ukraine if we don’t stop crazy Ian Europe will have to by putting troops in Ukraine and forcing the Russians to stop. Taiwan doesn’t invest enough in their own defence and should and will probably get gobbled up by China without warfare but China will be unlikely to
    Remain a single country. Our problem would the propensity for mid level powers to go nuclear, such as Japan. We shall see.
