U.S. Economy Is IMPLODING - Economic Collapse Has Begun as Foreign Investors Begin Dumping U.S. Assets

U.S. DOLLAR COLLAPSE - FOLLOW THE MONEY

World Affairs In Context

The economic data since the Donald Trump Administration took over has been historically rapid, and bad. The stock market is in near free fall. Interest rates are also falling, but for an undesirable reason: investors are assuming the Federal Reserve will need to swoop in soon to try to aggressively rescue a falling economy with future interest rate cuts.

Unemployment insurance claims for federal workers have noticeably jumped even before the full force of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) layoffs have been recorded.

Of course, economic data is reported retrospectively. But “nowcasts,” short-term predictions which allow us to estimate the current and future states of the economy, indicate that growth in gross domestic product for the first quarter of 2025 is collapsing, with some prominent projections showing outright economic contraction.

Of note: A recession is often defined as two consecutive quarters of economic contraction. Plus, measures of economic policy uncertainty are rivaling, or exceeding, what prevailed during the worst phases of the Covid-19 plandemic.
