TSOL Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Biden administration is really screwing the pooch on the economy. How people can condemn the Trump administration and defend the Biden administration, based on personality traits, when the economy is a flaming garbage truck falling off a cliff like this, is beyond me. The economy was humming at peak efficiency under Trump. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Man Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 By any objective measure, today’s jobs report was dismal. Hosts on CNBC were nearly speechless: However, Biden was so eager to talk about today’s jobs report that his speech only started almost an hour and a half late: Charles Payne isn’t buying the spin: After Biden’s comments, a familiar sight ensued: https://twitchy.com/dougp-3137/2021/10/08/damage-control-biden-tries-to-explain-why-the-jobs-report-isnt-abysmal-and-guess-whats-to-blame-for-the-bad-news/ 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TSOL Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 I saw a report on channel 4 WIVB yesterday that national fuel heating bills this winter will be up 43%. Its going to cost you 43% more to heat your home this winter. This is, no doubt, due to Joe Bidens domestic energy policies. Maybe the anger and rage i have towards this administration can keep my family warm this winter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here’s why the U.S. may not suffer as much A global energy crunch is sending natural gas prices soaring in the U.K., Europe and Asia, hitting record highs. However, experts say the stratospheric prices seen in Europe are unlikely to carry over to the States. Much will ultimately depend on what the winter weather brings. But the U.S. is better positioned heading into the colder months, given that it’s the world’s largest natural gas producer and that inventory levels are not as depleted as they are in Europe. But the moves abroad are far more extreme. Analysts at Deutsche Bank noted that in Europe prices are up fivefold, while in the U.S. and Asia prices are about 1.5 times higher. In Europe, the price spike in natural gas is equivalent to if oil were trading around $200 per barrel. https://www.cnbc.com/2021/10/08/natural-gas-prices-are-skyrocketing-globally-what-it-means-for-the-us.html Not a good time to restrict fracking or export liquified natural gas Having turned into a net exporter of LPG as recently as 2011, the USA now account for 33 percent of all LPG exports by volume. During the whole of 2020, the USA exported 47.1 mln tonnes of LPG, based on Refinitiv vessel tracking data, which was a +15.3% increase from the 40.8 mln tonnes in 2019. https://www.hellenicshippingnews.com/lpg-trade-the-us-market-dominated-during-2020/ Edited October 9, 2021 by ALF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALF Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 The global supply chain nightmare is about to get worse Computer chip shortages. Epic port congestion. And a serious lack of truck drivers. The world's delicate supply chains are under extreme stress. The supply chain nightmare is jacking up prices for consumers and slowing the global economic recovery. Unfortunately, Moody's Analytics warns supply chain disruptions "will get worse before they get better." Moody's said the "weakest link" may be the shortage of truck drivers — an issue that has contributed to congestion at ports and caused gas stations in the United Kingdom to run dry. https://www.cnn.com/2021/10/12/business/global-supply-chain-nightmare/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All_Pro_Bills Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 14 hours ago, B-Man said: So now the President is an expert at central planning of the world's largest economy following some secret blueprint to overhaul the mechanisms of commerce and business. Any guess on how that turns out? But given that everything these clowns have touched so far has been a huge dumpster fire I expect they are once again too incompetent to even attempt screwing up the economy and their "plan" (if they even have one) will be a miserable failure. Like everything else to date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Blitz Posted October 13, 2021 Author Share Posted October 13, 2021 What a f....ing disaster Inflation has shifted to ‘brutally high’ from ‘massive’ in three months, according to Fastenal CEO There isn’t just a ton of inflation, it’s starting to actually hurt people. That’s according to Lars Florness, the chief executive of Fastenal Co., which makes supplies used by construction and industrial manufacturers. In the conference call with analysts following Fastenal’s third-quarter results early Tuesday, Florness said, according to a FactSet transcript, that product and shipping cost inflation the company and its peers were facing “isn’t just high”: “It’s brutally high. The chaos and…the impact, not just from a financial perspective, but from a toll that takes on our human capital, is immense.” https://on.mktw.net/3oVD7kh Reminder.....
