Consumer Sentiment Hits Absolute Rock-Bottom All-Time Historic Low as The Economy Enters a Recession
Karine Jean-Pierre just told us that Biden had given us an "historic" economy.*
US Consumer Sentiment Slumps to Record Low on Rapid Inflation US consumer sentiment plunged in early June to the lowest on record as soaring inflation continued to batter household finances. The University of Michigan's preliminary June sentiment index fell to 50.2, from 58.4 in May, data released Friday showed. The figure was weaker than all estimates in a Bloomberg survey of economists which had a median forecast of 58.1.
This tracks perfectly with public confidence
in the pronouncements of Bill Kristol and David French
The US economy will tip into a recession next year, according to nearly 70 per cent of leading academic economists polled by the Financial Times... Jay Powell, the Fed chair, has conceded that the central bank's efforts to moderate inflation may cause "some pain", leading to a "softish" landing that sees the unemployment rate rise "a few ticks". But many of the economists polled are concerned about a more adverse outcome given the severity of the inflation situation and the fact that monetary policy will need to shift towards much tighter settings in short order to address it.Yeah so we didn't have to wait until next year: At least according to the Atlanta Fed tracker, the economy is predicted to post a 0.0% growth rate in the second quarter, which, combined with the negative growth in the first quarter, means we're gone two quarters of zero or negative growth. (Corrected: This is a predicted growth rate not a "posted" one as I said originally.) We're in a recession.
Economists consider the economy to be in recession when there is zero or negative growth for two consecutive quarters or more, and that's what we’ve gotten in the first half of 2022 after a full year of Bidenomics has had its effects. The economy shrank at an annual rate of 1.5% from January through March. That was revised downward from an original estimate of 1.4% shrinkage, and worse than the expected revision to 1.3%.Also via Ed Driscoll at Instapundit, consumer spending fell 0.3% in May.
Americans trimmed their spending unexpectedly in May compared with a month before, underscoring how surging inflation on daily necessities like gas is causing them to be more cautious about buying discretionary items. U.S. retail sales slipped 0.3% last month, down from a revised 0.7% increase in April, the Commerce Department said Wednesday.Idiots kept saying "Sure inflation is through the roof but the US consumer is keeping the economy afloat!" And how long did you expect that to go on for, Idiots, when people can barely afford food and gas and rent, and mortgage interest rates are about to shoot through the sky, and people's accumulated wealth in their home values is about to be slashed 15-20%? Did you think they would keep spending forever, just to keep your senile president (allegedly) in the game? I keep wanting to blaspheme. It's taking everything to avoid it. Jiminy Crickets, we have absolutely the worst, stupidest, poorest-educated, most incompetent "Elite" class.

That also can be addressed.
By cutting Medicare and social security payments. Also discretionary spending, but the bulk will need to be safety net spending.

I actually am more optimistic than most. I think a significant portion of inflation and the downturn in the markets is driven by paranoia. There's a feeling that things are spiraling out of control and that begets over-reaction. I think a lot of the current malaise and pain can be cured simply by (i) end of Ukraine war and (ii) some semblance of a rational USA energy policy. No 1 will come eventually. No 2 may come in November.

Posted by: havel at June 15, 2022 03:28 PM (PRDNR)
I think there is a chance that might have been true, six months ago. People who couldn't leave their house to go anywhere because everything was shut down, had more money to pay bills and pay down debts. At least some people put those government "stimulus" checks in savings. At least some people just didn't pay rent because they could not be evicted. Those unemployment checks kept coming for over a year.
So yeah, I could buy that a few months back, that was true.
But that savings is gone now and the debts are piling up again.

My cousin just signed up for Medicare. She went off her company insurance to do it. This is what I believe she says the deal looks like:
Under her old plan she paid Blue Cross a little over $14,000 in annual premiums, had two (in and out of network) $4,000 deductibles and she paid required co-pays on a lot of services and medications. She says in 2021 she spent just over $21,000 in medical insurance related expenses.
Under Medicare she has a $450 payment due at sign up, related somehow to her income. She has annual premiums that will total about $2500. No deductibles and no co-pays. The only thing her old plan covered that her Medicare plan does not is Dental.
She thinks her annual costs will be $3,000 this year and less in ensuing years. The $18,000 difference is being paid by the taxpayers of the US. Every year, for as long as she survives. She is pretty excited.

Just this afternoon I was at a local Mexican place. A regional version of Chipotle. Line was insane, easily 15 people in front of me.
So I read things like the economy is in shambles but then Insee that happening too.
You have to remember the media does love sensational stories.
Posted by: Joe XiDen at June 15, 2022 03:18 PM (H9K5h)
Anecdotal evidence. Where is the Chipotle? What's the economic status of most people in the immediate area? Office workers and wine moms or construction workers and auto mechanics in the line? More or fewer people in line on a daily average at the same clock time as six months ago? A year ago? Three years ago? And I can think of more data to ask for.

Some crazy percentage (like 70+%) of the residents of this state voted for this crap and they would just as soon see me dead and take what I have as look at me. As far as I'm concerned they can eat dirt.
I didn't always used to be this way. Not that long ago I was volunteering untold hours of time plus money to various local charities and organizations. Sort of wish I could get back to that but not happening in the current environment. Love your enemy is something I have a very hard time with and I'm probably going to pay the price for that.

Among the hapless moments of the Carter presidency, the "malaise speech" of July 1979 sticks out. Oil prices were going up wildly, and Carter addressed the problem by telling the American people, in the speech, that the root of the problem was some kind of "crisis of confidence" domestically.
Whatever Carter was getting at, he kicked things up a notch the day after the speech. He called a Cabinet meeting and asked everyone to resign. He accepted several of the resignations, including that of the treasury secretary, Michael Blumenthal.

Under her old plan she paid Blue Cross a little over $14,000 in annual premiums, had two (in and out of network) $4,000 deductibles and she paid required co-pays on a lot of services and medications. She says in 2021 she spent just over $21,000 in medical insurance related expenses.
Under Medicare she has a $450 payment due at sign up, related somehow to her income. She has annual premiums that will total about $2500. No deductibles and no co-pays. The only thing her old plan covered that her Medicare plan does not is Dental.
She thinks her annual costs will be $3,000 this year and less in ensuing years. The $18,000 difference is being paid by the taxpayers of the US. Every year, for as long as she survives. She is pretty excited.

Whenever it would get almost too big to fit through the door, he'd roll it off the deck into the truck and cash it in.

I asked them "Do you need ziploc bags to portion them out?"
"No. We have them."
My K of C council just raised over 1000 pounds of food for Christian Charities*
*Sometime in the past, a Protestant pastor realized that the poor were "gaming the system." So he got all the churches in town (OMG, even the Catholics) to get together to run the food bank. Records are kept. Folks get what they need but cannot abuse it.

He knows the oil companies cannot do much if anything. By publicly asking, he sets the stage for publicly blaming them when they do nothing. This situation is one where we need an honest media, not a tribe of Dem and Joe sycophants who will mindlessly blame Big Oil for everything when Joe tells then to.

Profit is what you get when you are producing what the market wants. Oil companies don't increase their profits by producing less they do it by producing more.

Probably the only time I've seen someone actually wearing a barrel. Better than being IN one!

That's the third significant recall by Ford that I know of. They're recalling ~50K Mach-Es because there's a battery issue that can cause the car to lose power during travel or cause it to stop turning on.
They also had a bunch of SUVs that were burning for unknown reasons.

We all remember the the Great Depression. My old man packed up the Congastoga wagon and headed West from Scranton, because we heard it was a land of plenty.
Those were hard times, like you don't see anymore, before Democrats were around. Most of us didn't make it to Oregon. I heard "you have died of dysentery" more than once, myself. And I'll never forget how mad the old man got when I pawned the wagon for crack, but you know how kids are. I was only 42.
Anyway, I'm just saying we didn't stand around complaining about the price of beet sugar, jack. You people need to stop your belly-achin', or you ain't black.

If they vote to get rid of Joe, two bad things could happen to them. 1. Kamala fires them. (They are in the jobs not for the measly paycheck, they are in them for the power-rush and the kickbacks now and in the future based on rulings they make.) 2. Kamala keeps them on-board but reduces their cut of the current kickbacks, to keep more for herself.

My paper losses are around 10% so far. Oil and coal stocks have been on a tear since the lockdowns and have mitigated all my losses in everything else.
All my bonds have lost value too with the interest rate rises, but I don't plan on selling them and will get the full amount on redemption, so it's not even a real loss.
