The market going up this much in this period is likely a bubble. “AI” stock speculation in particular is crazy. Hopefully not one that gets popped by massive set of cascading events like we had in 2008 and instead is just a regular sell-off and profit taking. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How does Clownzo costing taxpayers $500 million for his frivolous election lawsuits help those poor people living paycheck to paycheck? Guess what?

Jose M 49 Posted March 21 Just an FYI. "People spending, spending, spending" isn't a good sign for an economy with high inflation. The Fed's raising interest rates are part of a long-standing monetary practice with a simple goal. By making it more expensive to borrow money, whether through loans, credit cards or other financial tools, people and businesses will spend less and inflation will fall to a desirable level. The posters that keep saying people are spending like crazy, malls and restaurants are packed, like it's a good thing have a backwards understanding of what is really happening with the economy.

The economy sucks and many people are stupid with their money. Mostly emotional liberals. Then they'll whine and want to be bailed out of their debt and vote incompetence into office because they can't manage their own lives. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
