Here it comes??? ... and if anyone thinks that Trump wouldn't get full blame, they're kidding themselves. It WOULD affect his re-election, though I think he'd be stepping down!
Shades of 1929 It is now exactly two weeks until the end of 2018, and even though the year is coming to a close, the market selloff isn't. Get ready for a long 2019. Just how bad is it going to get? Here are just a few of the buzzwords and phrases that analysts were throwing around this weekend to describe what's coming next: "a flurry of sell offs"... "a sign of things to come"... "a precursor to an epic market collapse"... and lastly "shades of 1929". Well now, doesn't that sound fun?
The umbrella group for the world's central banks, The Bank of International Settlements, put out a little under the radar warning yesterday, and it isn't pretty. They're saying that the market selloff that's been going on the past few months isn't isolated… this is about to get worse, and it isn't stopping anytime soon. Ron Paul went on CNBC last week and agreed. He said the developments we're seeing right now could be leading to something that's quote, "worse than 1929." ..........
............Consider this. The White House is estimating this year's budget deficit will total 1.1 TRILLION! That's over four percent of GDP. Let's look back in history for a quick second and compare that number to the other times the deficit went over 4% GDP. Here are a few years when it happened: 1933, 1942, 1983, 2009 and then today. 1933 was FDR's attempt to get out of the Great Depression enacting the New Deal. 1942 was World War 2. 1983 was the height of the Cold War. 2009 was the bank bailout after the crash. So basically, this only happens either during times of war or in response to a financial crisis. So why are we still spending at record levels? ...........
