US Economy Has First Contraction in Three Years


We will have to agree to disagree everything I am seeing is bearish. The "real" data IMO seems to say the US is in a steep contraction and the economy is rolling over. To use a technical term "its been flushed down the toilet" hehehe.

But that's the beauty of "economic data" we can all have differing views and interpretations.

I would argue markets are only rising due to the what I call the "final suckers rally". Something that happens before every crash/collapse due to marker makers/smart money needing exit liquidity. Everything I am seeing says they are selling while retail are buying.

P.S. But we will all know the answer soon enough, until then we strap in for the fun ride .
