Artificially inflating the cost of goods is really good for the American People. Let's give them another tax cut. This simply is not true. The ones that are artificially inflating cost of goods are mostly politicians. It’s their policies that artificially mess with supply and demand of goods.

Prices are only artificial when the demand and or supply is artificial. IE, the government shuts down some businesses which severely decreases supply on most products. Prices go up. In turn, they print and hand out tons of money which drastically increases demand, never mind what it does to the value of the dollar. Prices go up.

Two quarters of negative growth is what it is. The fed will always signal strength and stability. I don’t mean that as a knock on them because you don’t want them spooking markets. It is what it is. Just take what they say with a giant grain of salt. It’s the same institution that had Bernanke saying the housing market is strong heading into the financial crisis. As far as supply chain issues and inflation, something to keep in mind is that consumers got a huge jolt of spending power from the stimi checks, and basically all income levels have about 25% more cash on hand in their checking account than they did before COVID. So the consumer still has some dry powder left to cope with inflation, but I’m thinking once that cash is spent the economy could get thrown into a quick deflationary spiral as suddenly higher costs from inputs price people out of discretionary purchases. Or maybe the consumer is now going to keep higher savings? That would be interesting. The reaction to that would determine a lot, but if the government goes for more stimulus, we could go from high inflation, to deflation, back into high inflation pretty quickly. On China… they increasing have unemployment among their youth, which is really concerning from a structural view. You’re right about their demographics — China has been a huge buoy to the global economy and them flipping negative could be pretty catastrophic. Interesting times…
October 31, 20222 yr What's going on in the oil industry? Correcting from pandemic-related issues (low demand, supply chain problems, etc.) while keeping prices artificially high, helps the industry earn record profits, pumps up the companies, and rakes consumers.
