You can queue up hypotheticals all day long but it will make no difference since the "oppressor oppressed" trope is a spiritual experience for these progressive cult members. It's simply not about logic.

Another way of thinking about this is

is saying "vote for me and I'll give you cheaper debt". This is a BAD message. American's are swimming in debt, particularly housing debt. We need "vote for me and I'll restore prices for homes that are in-line with incomes".

@KobeissiLetter
Simple. Stocks are way over valued. The fact that Buffett is waiting on the sidelines actively waiting for better pricing and even lightening up on $AAPL should provide a strong indication that the market is due for a major pullback.
@KobeissiLetter
This is simply a byproduct of our deeply entrenched
#inflationary
period. Previously solid business models fail when
#inflation
guts consumers. The best thing for the economy going forward is to abandon "soft landing" for a good old fashioned "hard landing"

@jasongoepfert
Bubbles are always axiomatic... "The bigger they come, the harder they fall", "Easy come, easy go", "What goes up, must come down", "If something cannot go on forever, it will stop." Our whole economy is essentially a massive Everything Bubble. You can connect the dots.

This is a bit of a naive take... you are implying that a traditional candidate selection process and statesmenship still exists with the prospect of legitimate primary challengers and a president that functions with independent agency. We are VERY far from those days.

@KobeissiLetter
There is no strange mystery here... the message is loud and clear. The
#Fed
disastrously mishandled this historic bout of
#inflation
and will soon have to do an about-face and restart the hiking cycle except now from a 5.25% base-rate and ZERO credibility.
@KobeissiLetter
Yes. It's a perfect example of why massive economic programs like SS should have automatic sunset clause every decade to force reauthorization. Tricky, yes, but the implementation of this policy hardly resembles the original intent and new generations need a seat at the table.

is simply unwilling to do the right thing and hike to a truly and unequivocally restrictive rate level.
#inflation
has been building a head of steam since December 2023. Eventually
#inflation
will win and force the
#Fed
's hand but at what rate? 5%, 6%, 7% annualized?
@KobeissiLetter
The simple answer for this is 15-years of "easy money" induced delirious speculation. We are long overdue for a hard landing for stocks, housing and the whole economy more generally.
@DeItaone
The administration was hoping for nearly a year of cuts pre-election.
#Powell
was happy to play along.
#Inflation
just said loud and clear... NOPE!
@RobertKennedyJr
I support your run but this isn't good policy, just more big government subsidizing of res real estate. Uncle Sam already cosigns most home loans through Fannie/Freddie which is one reason housing is so overvalued. We need policy to BRING PRICES DOWN not encourage indebtedness.
@KobeissiLetter
It's a tricky period with traditional indicators of
#recession
flashing red against the backdrop of the continued effects of the
#Fed
's 15 years of easy money liquidity. The lower 80% of the population is effectively in
#recession
while the upper 20%, with assets, is thriving.

Another day, another reason to consider the Stock Market the world's most elaborate casino. It's all a game of legerdemain. Value investment is a thing of the past along with decades of basic fundamentals and tried and true rules of thumb.

Silver lining: After this stock market (and housing market) crash fully materializes, at least we wont hear even even a whisper about anything COVID-19.
@Geiger_Capital
Get used to it. The 10-Year Yield appears to be gearing up for another run at 5%. A couple more "surprise"
#inflationary
data reports and its a done deal. Then consider that this will be the second 5% 10-Year Yield in under a year. Obviously, we are going above 5%.
@KobeissiLetter
Layoffs are why you are seeing risk assets pumping. There is a whiff of despair in the air. Online gambling, Robinhood stonkers, crypto scams, Zero-day Options, AirBnb cons, property flipping... manias abound! These are not signals of strength, they are the noise of weakness.

Time to stick a fork in the US housing market... its done. The 2023 mortgage refi con narrative played out horriblly, rates are now headed up! You would have to be certifiably crazy to buy now and absorb the greatest price declines in a generation.
As the Fed + Government try to normalize and celebrate CPI of 3-4%, please understand…
~4% inflation is a disaster.
Your purchasing power is cut in HALF every 17 years. You’re being brutally robbed.
Since Powell took office in 2018, you’ve lost ~30% of your purchasing power.
@zerohedge
500k jobs a month "created" is obviously ludicrous. Not to mention that the current nonfarm payroll level is only about 3.7mil jobs over the pre-covid trend so at best one could claim about 100k net new jobs each month since April 2020. That gives Biden about 2.7mil net new jobs.
@KobeissiLetter
The Oil price has rising consistently throughout the last 4 months which is only just now being picked up by

#Fed
really gets serious and raises rates to truly restrictive level.
@KobeissiLetter
The key here is that the decade (or so) was the anomaly not our current 6-7% mortgage rates. Home prices simply need to come down to bring balance back to the housing market and a viable path forward for young entrants. Unemployment will kick off this epic unwind.
@zerohedge
When it comes to the big Federal departments, trillions are like yesterday's billions. You want to see where all the stolen loot went? Audit the top 5% of Congres and the executive branch including all bureaucrats and Federal contractors.

Everything, in one way or another, is pointing to a second great wave/spike of

materializing. The path forward for the

is simple yet hard to do given their lack of backbone... simply HIKE and keep hiking until the economy crashes into "hard landing"

Why not sponsor a bill prohibiting the Federal government from ever making any information classified for more than some nominal number of years (6 maybe). If more time was needed (say for longer term matters of national security) the burden should be on the government agency to…

1970 was the last year that our economy was tethered (even if only ever so slightly) to some semblence monetary reality. Nixon cut the final cord holding the system to a metal-based monetary standard and that was that... we were free to float on the whims of man. Hubris Maximus.

This is just "rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic". China is very obviously caught in a

Households are starting to tighten their belts. Reduce home improvements, trade down to lessor quality goods. Rely more on credit.

@menlobear
Natural pullback.

will consolidate and make another run. This should certainly worry the

though as gold is acting as yet another (probably the most fundamental) barometer of the loss of credibility in their
#inflation
fighting ability.
@KobeissiLetter
This is just another clear indication that credit quality is on shaky ground. Next up, credit cards, personal loans and ultimately mortgages. We are staring down the barrel of a credit event "Perfect Storm" something akin to the 1980s S&L Crisis meeting the 2008 GFC.

More power to you to sign the petition but Americans need reminding, Brazil and Peru are not the US. They rightly have their own economic development interests and should follow them above all else. You like trading over or driving the inter-states? Some trees came down for that.

Very astute. We Crossed the Rubicon into a post-Keynsian hellscape resulting from

3.4% GDP, < 4% unemployment, jobless claims at historic cycle lows, Service PMIs in expansion, stocks, housing, cryptos and gold all at ATHs, record breaking NFT traded only a few week back. The

They can complain all they want but the overlords that run their districts don't care. The agenda is far bigger than these ordinary people. The irony is that they willingly vote directly against thier own interests and don't seem to connect the dots.
@RobertKennedyJr
Cost of living is mostly a home price issue and has a VERY easy solution. Take the Federal Govt and Federal Reserve's thumbs the HELL off the scale when it comes to residential real estate. Enough of the bubbles! Let the market, once and for all, revert to the long term mean.
@EconguyRosie
He's talking about PRICES... not volume. And he is absolutely correct. Stocks are near ATH, home prices have bottomed and now turned up, there are still over 22K different cryptos, now we have Ordinals. We need a good hard bout of

Probably will be over 3% and coming almost exclusively from

fiscal profligacy.
#Powell
is quite literally the only person in a position of power who could call out the overspending by the federal government but he won't because he is a coward.
#inflation
is re-accelerating.
@KobeissiLetter
This is the dynamic of deeply entrenched/persistent

@mikekimelman
The problem is though, you can find many examples of firms attempting to win back their broke customers but still, that's not going to bring back their lost 2019 general purchasing power. Consumer sentiment is bad for a reason and it's not just negative press coverage.
