  2. GDP Now is really all over the place. I use the average of GDP Now and Blue chip consensus in my trading calculations for GDP.

  5. Amazing, it’s almost as if there are consequences for one’s actions and policy!

  6. We have lost over 1.5 million full time jobs the past couple years. The economy hasn’t been good. You don’t go 36 trillion in debt and climbing by having a good economy. Trump is attempting to fix it, but it might be too little too late, but it’s a step in the right direction.

  8. yes it’s true, and here is the morningstar synopsis of the reasoning:

    >The Atlanta Fed’s forecast was slashed from an expansion at a 2.3% rate after the U.S. government reported a sharply higher trade deficit for January. Imports have surged since late last year, and economists say that reflects President Donald Trump’s threats to hit Mexico, Canada, China and other trading partners with substantial new tariffs.

  14. This is what I’ve been saying for a month now. Our economy will constrict. 😂🤦‍♂️🙄
