Trumponomics

. . . more good news on the economy. "US job growth continued to slow down in August, a sign that the labor market is deteriorating markedly. The government also revised its numbers from earlier in the summer, and said that the economy lost a net 13,000 jobs in June. It was the first such decline since December 2020."

I idly wonder how many of them were DOGE-related jobs...

Might be good possibility but economy and jobs will go up and down into an infinity and beyond

Stagflation anyone?

Our business numbers are up over last year with next year expected to be a good. No indication of a downturn. 2025 is set to be our best historical year. We run our company fiscal year Dec 1 to Nov 30. We just entered our 4th quarter. Fourth quarter is starting strong thus expect 2025 to meet expectations of a historic high.

On a personal investment side…markets are good and decent interest to be had on cash. Cattle are high. Oil is good. What’s not to like?

Sky high wholesale inflation, the deficit ballooning, the bond market is a mess, tariffs killing my business, the job market is collapsing, the dollar has lost 10% of its value in a little over 6 months, and Trump kissing Putin's ass.

All is good MAGAland

We live in a bifurcated economy. It is frequently good for some, not so good for others.
It is also a mixed economy, with government an private sector at odds for resourced.
The Trump Recession has started for some, it is uncertain how far it will spread.

I purchase >$1M worth of supplies a year. Our cost is stable for the last 2 years definitely no increase in 2025.

While it is not reducing, the deficit is fairly stable. Agree we should do what it takes to reduce it. Not sure that is a doable thing in our government until it melts down. But common ground here.

Markets sort themselves out. The overall market is good. I had good growth since the first of the year as should have anyone competently invested.

Our business has experienced zero ill-effects from tariffs. Medical supplies more readily available now than anytime since early 2000s.

Job market is not even close to collapsing…actually quite stable. It is becoming an employer’s market which is good for me.

Don't worry, the Maggots will blame Biden (who led 4 years of steady job growth).

Those four years followed a sharp decrease in jobs, not that hard to improve on.

And the job losses now? Can't be tarifs ? Can't be stupid cancellation of infrastructure projects? Can't be mass firings of government works?

Things were going great until the current asshole decided to make stupid moves to change things.

Still better than right now with your orange asshole calling the shots. Inflation is also on the rise again. Double gut punch for the economy. Best get used to making those excuses.

The market sees no negative effects from tariffs and soars today to close at record high today.

. . . the markets were up today because the Fed had to cut interest rates due to the economy slowing, jobs being lost, etc. Sheesh, you will spin anything.

Deficit - Up But the tariffs are having impact here with no realized effect on inflation.
Jobs Added - Down But when you separate out private sector…the private sector looking good.

FYI…the market is not just up today…it has been in upward trajectory since Trump took office except for the blip when the idiots freaked about tariffs.
