Fox News: Final Revision of Second Quarter GDP Is Negative 0.6%, "Cementing Start of Recession"

The Dow fell another 458 points. We'll be under 29,000 next week. And then Katie Bar the Door.

The estimate for the next quarter has continued to fall and is now down to 0.2%, and that's an optimistic 0.2%.


But the previous quarter, the spring quarter, is now finally fixed at having contracted 0.6%. And, as Fox Business says, this cements the start of the recession that Biden's henchmen say they're just not quite ready to declare yet. They need more data, you see.

cementrecession.jpg

The U.S. economy shrank for the second consecutive quarter in the three months ended June, according to the final estimate from the Bureau of Economic Analysis, meeting the criteria for a so-called technical recession as raging inflation and higher interest rates weighed on spending.

The updated report, released Thursday, showed that gross domestic product (GDP), the broadest measure of goods and services produced across the economy, shrank by 0.6% on an annualized basis in the second quarter. That is below the initially reported 0.9% decline and unchanged from the second reading of a 0.6% decline.

Economic output already fell over the first three months of the year, with GDP tumbling 1.6%, the worst performance since the spring of 2020, when the economy was still deep in the throes of the COVID-19 induced recession.

...

With back-to-back declines in growth, the economy meets the technical criteria for a recession, which requires a "significant decline in economic activity that is spread across the economy and that lasts more than a few months." Still, the NBER -- the semi-official arbiter -- weighs multiple factors when calling a recession and typically takes up to a year before announcing the decision.

Only "semi-official." Nothing stops the media from recognizing the obvious and saying that this fits the age-old "technical" definition of a recession, except for partisan allegiance to a lying Democrat "president." Rigging the news like they rigged an election.

I'm glad Fox finally stopped the charade, for its part.


Meanwhile, Biden has now wiped out nine trillion dollars in American wealth, because his economy is so strong. Call it "the Putin Boost" or whatever.

Americans' holdings of corporate equities and mutual fund shares fell to $33 trillion at the end of the second quarter, down from $42 trillion at the start of the year.

With major market indexes falling further since July, experts say losses from financial markets could total $9.5 trillion to $10 trillion.

Economists say the drops could add pressure to Americans' balance sheets and possibly hurting spending.

No shit really economists? Wow thank you for your sage prognostication. Say, Professor Fuckface, what do you advise re: my shoving your pointy head into the boys room toilet?

Weird how you guys are constantly predicting that the economy will grow under Democrat presidents and then when we lose NINE FUCKING TRILLION FUCKING DOLLARS your new prediction is, "We expect this might put a crimp in your spending plans. Whoopsie. M'bad."

Mark Zandi, chief economist of Moody’s Analytics, said the losses could reduce real GDP growth by nearly 0.2 percentage points over the coming year.

But you're still predicting positive growth, right? Like 0.1%? Anything positive so you can continue to pretend the president you rigged the election for hasn't driven us into a recession, right?

You fucking leftwing imbeciles.

"Listen to us, trust us, obey us! We're smart!" -- the people who get everything wrong literally all the time.

Meanwhile, the White House is in, get this, disarray, and has a "major shake-up" for its economic team "top of mind."

According to Axios, White House officials (notice they say White House officials, not Biden) are considering a "broad reorganization of President Biden's economic team." This is part of a shake-up being done by White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain, who has former administration officials Jeff Zients and Natalie Quillian making up lists of people for Cabinet and senior administrative positions.


Among the people who the report is pointing to as likely to get the boot are Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen and Brian Deese, the director of the National Economic Council.


The decision is not final and is expected to hinge on the outcome of the midterm elections, sources familiar with the matter told Axios. Yellen's successor will need to be confirmed by the Senate, posing a challenge if the Republican Party takes control of the upper chamber. [....]

Deese, speaking at the Economic Club of D.C. on Tuesday, said he had "no plans to leave" the Biden administration.

"I've got my head down, and I'm certainly fully, fully absorbed in the work we're doing," Deese added.

Treasury spokeswoman Lily Adams said Yellen has no plans to leave.

The White House did not respond to a comment request.

A statement from Anita Dunn is intriguing, "While we are prudently planning for potential transitions post-midterm, neither Secretary Yellen or Brian Deese are part of those plans."

So not part of our plans because they're out? Or not part of our plans because they're not out? That comment is typical Biden confusion, it could be read two ways.

They're shaking up the economic team because the economy is so damn strong. That's when football teams declare rebuilding years, you know -- when they're strong enough to win the Super Bowl. That's when they fire the coaches and trade the quarterback.

Everyone knows that.

Janet, where are you? Where's Janet?

18 I've been thinking about the "BUT BUT BUT LOWEST UNEMPLOYMENT!" bleat from the left and I had a revaluation:

Unemployment is down for a similar reason gas was dropping (14 WEEKS OF DROPPING PRICES! UNPRECEDENTED!)

Consumer demand bottoming out dropped the gas prices, depressed by the cost of trying to live.

Worker supply similarly bottomed out, caused by government largess.

And in both cases, the left wants credit for things that are undeniably bad.

They aren't all-powerful. They have to take cash out of the system, and that means higher interest rates and asset sales (reducing the Fed balance sheet). The asset classes they sell will likely decline - it's tough to unload without moving the market when you hold a ton of stuff - and as credit gets more expensive, everything financed with credit gets more expensive. If you're playing with borrowed money in the capital markets, you either have to post more collateral or reduce your positions. Those reductions will also move the price. Then, of course, fundamentals - beaten and abused as they are - do still exist.

When you create this much currency, via fiat, the only way you can increase its value - on a dollar by dollar basis - is to take a whole lot of dollars out circulation.

Luckily, all our retirement accounts are digital. So it won't be so hard as marching Treasury Agents to your bank to haul off stacks of cash to burn.

That's the one part that Modern Monetary Theory gets right. The currency has no intrinsic value. Its all just based upon people doing what they do, regardless, because they don't know what else to do.

The study of mainstream economics is a practice of memorizing theories and using their calculations to prove those theories are best fit for explaining what the theories think is happening.
The purpose of mainstream economics is to give a basis for central banks and their controlling governments cover to manipulate the money supply in a way to benefit their families, their best friends, their political supporters, and set the blame on someone else when the bubbles inevitably mysteriously pop

It has the added benefit of weakening the American middle within the Democratic party, driving them out of it, while the far left gains more power within the party.

They aren't. The values have been flat, and there is no real consensus as to why.
I think there is such a glut of "paper" gold - that is unbacked gold bonds- that the value of the spot is diluted, another thought is that everyone is playing Crypto instead and that is sucking up the money

Problem is that crypto is surging and plunging like an unbroken horse, but the average is similar to the metal spots.
I worry that if I take a flyer on the metals, I will be in the back of the line when the funds go broke and they are forced to liquidate as to actual physical holdings.

Now? Leaders like Elizabeth Warren think the Fed raising interest rates when there's double digit inflation is untenable because unemployment might tick up to 4%.
Posted by: Blago at September 29, 2022 04:51 PM

If we keep inflation really high for a few years, a 30 trillion dollar debt suddenly won't seem so bad. That'll just be one wheelbarrow full. We call it the Zimbabwe model, and it's tried and tested!

414 I mean of course they were ALWAYS pro-abortion. But they kept up the "Woman's Right to Choose" charade because a straight-up pro-abortion stance is very, very difficult to defend. So I wonder how that propaganda is going to look.

I'm betting it will include a lot of horribly racist rhetoric. Lot of stuff about how certain people are better off dead, and the social safety-net being overextended, high crime rates, etc.

The eugenics angle on abortion was always on the downlow. There are plenty of PP clinics in the inner cities, not so much in the tony burbs or rural areas.

But at the time abortion was part of the sexual revolution and denigrating women who chose to raise families over those who worked full time. All ways to destroy the traditional family unit.

423 A liberated woman thing - "mama needs to ride the cock carousel forever, and babies get in the way of dicks?" Or just the truth - "we're psychos. Kill the babies for the fuck of it, because you CAN?"

Spoiler Alert - a Liberated Woman doesn't think at all. She feels. But she's right about one thing - this is it, in a macro sense. Nobody in the 1800s paid a bit of attention to a Liberated Woman. Nobody in the 2200s will pay attention to a Liberated Woman.

Because all a woman can do is work like a Man, or make babies. Giving up the second half, when you can't do the first half, is stupid.

Hence, the Modern Liberated Woman.

That's Human Nature. And some - not all, but some - that say that won't be telling a lie at all.

Some of this is being driven by a group that wants to capitalize on new markets. No doubt. But another, much bigger mainstream part of it, is being driven by a desire consume less. Yet, those folks can't stand - will not tolerate - consuming less while looking across the fence at others with a crumb more.

Its no fun to be rich if everybody is rich. Its also no fun to do with less if everybody else doesn't join in. We are seeing the rejection of Capitalism - because Capitalism has been to successful materially, yet completely void Spiritually.

470 The "justifications" I can think of are almost all either obsolete or rare.

1. Back in the day when there was no social safety net, an unexpected pregnancy could put you on the street

2. Back in the day, if an unmarried woman turned up pregnant, she might be kicked out of school, kicked out of her family home, and / or kicked out of her job. She might lose her friends and her place in society. Back when people didn't move around much, this was a social death knell. Everything and everyone you knew and loved basically turned their back on you and you were outcast.

3. Health of the mother

One no longer applies, because we have a social safety net. Two no longer applies because nobody gives a crap anymore if an unmarried woman turns up pregnant. Maybe some Muslim communities and other especially strict religious group still maintain this sort of thing, but schools and jobs and boarding houses don't. Three is the only really valid remaining reason, and every abortion law I'm aware of says ectopic pregnancies and the like are not abortions and are legally fine.
