Americans come last – ALWAYS!!!!!!

October 3, 2024

The Biden Administration, under the Neocons’ control, has sent Ukraine $24.4 billion. The Ukrainian population is about 28 million, minus all the ethnic Russians in the Donbas, which would be about 42 million combined. That means the Biden Administration has sent the equivalent of $871 per person, but it does not go to the people. […]

Can the Republic be Rescued?

October 3, 2024

COMMENT: I attended the Rescue the Republic gathering and was very disappointed. Peterson merely identified the NeoMarxist agenda, but nobody seemed to have any honest solution. It is clear they do not understand history, human society, and the outcome. Your comments about the Civil War being economic to the South and religious to the North […]

Consumer Confidence – Biggest Crash Since 2021

September 25, 2024

COMMENT: Marty, it is amazing that the world is not focusing on your model. Consumer confidence in the US took a nose dive, which was the largest decline in more than three years. The ECM turns, and central backs began to cut rates within weeks, and you explained that recessions are born when people lose […]

Be Careful of Research Attributing Everything to a President

September 24, 2024

QUESTION: Do you agree that Trump supported the digital ID to control the border? OB ANSWER: I do not know your source, but it sounds like someone who just attributes whatever idea takes place during a presidential term to whoever is president. Perhaps that is one way to do research, but it tends to reflect […]

Supplemental Poverty Measure on the Rise

September 19, 2024

The latest Supplemental Poverty Measure (SPM) found that at 12.9% of American households currently rely on government assistance, up from 12.4% one year prior. The figure was at 11.8% in 2019 and has risen every year under Biden-Harris. The data only factors in US households and not the tens of millions of illegal aliens who […]

Forecasting Recessions

September 10, 2024

https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/Summers-Economy-Not-Predictable.mp4   COMMENT: Mr. Armstrong, I find it incorrigible that everyone now claims recession when they have never predicted a recession before. That was clear from the video you had of Larry Summers, who admitted nobody could do that. It is very strange how you are the only person who has ever forecast recessions and […]

How to Read the July Jobs Report

September 9, 2024

The Bureau of Labor and Statistics released its report for July, indicating a slight uptick in employment. It is difficult to trust BLS data after their latest data revision that showed the Biden-Harris Administration have failed to create new jobs outside of the public sector. It was their steepest revision to data since 2009, yet […]

Will Rate Cuts Help Canada?

September 5, 2024

The Bank of Canada voted to cut rates by 25 bps to 4.25%, marking the third consecutive rate cut. Inflation has allegedly slowed to 2.5% as of July, and Governor Tiff Macklem said that was reason enough to drop rates to attract investment. “If inflation continues to ease broadly in line with our July forecast, […]

Have the Democrats Reversed the American Dream?

August 26, 2024

Before the evolution of the Industrial Revolution, Social Mobility truly did not exist. More often, one tended to follow in the footsteps of their family. Farmers remained on the farm just as those in the various skilled trades remained in those guilds. This tended to be true even from ancient times before Rome became the […]

BLS Admits Biden-Harris Did NOT Create New Jobs

August 22, 2024

The Bureau of Labor and Statistics has always been crafty with releasing data. The BLS consistently revises data from its monthly survey as it prefers to release stronger initial reports. Their most recent revision is the steepest alteration since 2009. In fact, the agency has admitted that there were 818,000 fewer jobs in March than […]
