Big Blitz Posted September 20, 2022 Author Share Posted September 20, 2022 Home "correction" ......er crash.... The home price correction is spreading Pressurized. That might be the best word to describe the current U.S. housing market. Record home price appreciation—up 43% during the pandemic—coupled with 6% mortgage rates are sidelining millions of potential homebuyers. The combination puts debt-to-income ratios for new buyers on par with levels hit during the peak of the housing bubble. That affordability crunch has already pushed the U.S. housing market into a housing downturn. Home sales are tanking. Homebuilders are calling off projects. And real estate firms are turning to layoffs. https://fortune.com/2022/09/20/home-price-correction-spreads-this-interactive-map-shows-if-your-local-housing-market-is-impacted/ Hope it was worth it This is a decade plus disaster 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special place in hell for the people that let China (still not held responsible and still locking people down) destroy the planet because Trump bad. Economic catastrophe is coming. Of course this has to do with increasing rates. The number one tool in the inflation beating toolbox is rate increases. It's the price to pay to get inflation in check. It's enemy #1 regarding our economy now and it has to be brought back to historical norms. Home prices have already begun to drop due to these rate increases and I imagine you will see dramatic drops in home prices over the next 12 months or so. And that is not a bad thing.

Everything he says here is a lie. I hope fighting the flu was worth it! Powell Signals More Pain to Come With Rates Heading Higher Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell vowed officials would crush inflation after they raised interest rates by 75 basis points for a third straight time and signaled even more aggressive hikes ahead than investors had expected. “We have got to get inflation behind us. I wish there were a painless way to do that. There isn’t,” Powell told a press conference in Washington on Wednesday after officials lifted the target for the benchmark federal funds rate to a range of 3% to 3.25%. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-09-21/fed-delivers-third-straight-big-hike-sees-more-increases-ahead Struggling to "contain" it.......lol its like Tyreek Hill!

Big Blitz Posted September 21, 2022 Author Share Posted September 21, 2022 Time to stop saying "Inflation." This IS THE ECONOMY. Your self inflicted covid economy. I'm honestly sick of hearing "Inflation." Like it's an entity that dag gone it just showed up outta nowhere and has decimated us - who knee? They all knew. They all knew what the fallout would be and didn't care because they knew enough of you - and most importantly every corporate and media entity - would fall for it all.

B-Man Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 THE FED RAISES INTEREST RATES BY 0.75%; The Propaganda Media Pretends It’s The Fed That’s Choking the Economy, Rather Than Biden’s Toxic Profligacy That Forced The Fed to Impose Higher Interest Rates. The Fed raised interest rates by 0.75% again. This is the third time they’ve raised it by three quarters of a point. The Dow fell 522 points by the close. The Atlanta Fednow tracker for GDP projection has reduced its forecast for the third quarter to almost zero — 0.3%. They’re trying to avoid the psychological shock of a full one point hike. The media is offering headlines suggesting it’s the Fed who is “taking the economy off the side of a cliff.” No, it was Joe Biden and the Democrat Congress who did that. They caused this runaway inflation. When you set a fire, the next thing that happens is that the fire department comes to put it out — and you can’t complain when they spray water everywhere and ruin all your furniture by soaking it. But that’s how the media is playing it. It’s The Fed’s fault! https://ace.mu.nu/archives/401054.php 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 ED MORRISSEY: Biden’s economic victory lap keeps getting interrupted by reality, or something. It’s tough to tell which party is more clueless in this construct. Is it the White House and Joe Biden, who threw a “Mission Accomplished” celebration of the so-called Inflation Reduction Act on the same day as the CPI report that showed inflation still clocking in above 8%? Or is it Politico, the news organization that wonders why people won’t let Biden have his victory lap while they struggle with five quarters of erosion in real disposable personal income?

B-Man Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 BIDENFLATION: FedEx Announces Biggest Ever General Rate Increase. “Effective January 2, 2023, FedEx Express, FedEx Ground, and FedEx Home Delivery rates will increase by an average of 6.9 percent,” the company said in a news release on Sept. 22. The general rate increase of 6.9 percent is the largest annual hike in the company’s history, according to FreightWaves. In addition, the firm will raise FedEx Freight rates “by an average of 6.9–7.9 percent dependent on the customer’s transportation rate scale.” This is the first time in eight years that FedEx has raised freight rates by more than 4.9 percent. According to the company’s latest rate list, the cost of overnight delivery for a one-pound envelope by 8 a.m. the next day will rise by 4.4 percent, to $68.04. The cost of two-day delivery by 10:30 a.m. will be $25.37, an increase of 7.9 percent. The rate-hike decision was announced as part of the company’s fiscal 2023 first-quarter earnings report. FedEx’s net income for the three months ended Aug. 31 was at $875 million, a decline of more than 20 percent from the $1.1 billion in net income earned during the year-ago period. During the earnings call, CEO Raj Subramaniam blamed rising prices for the poor performance. https://www.theepochtimes.com/keeping-up-with-inflation-fedex-announces-biggest-ever-general-rate-increase_4755206.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Man Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 Biden's game of inches: Real disposable personal income plunges in final Q2 GDP report -- and in Q1 too FTA: As bad as that looks, the year-on-year numbers for real DPI look far worse. In both the quarter-to-quarter and year-on-year real DPI numbers, American households have lost ground for five quarters in a row. Year-on-year, however, we lost 12.8% in Q1 and 5.5% in Q2. This is what Joe Biden calls an “inch”: Those numbers aren’t an “inch,” especially in the revised Q1 numbers. That -10.6% figure means that American households lost ten percent of their annualized buying power in a single quarter — and that followed three previous quarters of declines. The Q2 decline of -1.5% is a decline from that outcome, as all of these numbers compound. https://hotair.com/ed-morrissey/2022/09/29/bidens-game-of-inches-real-disposable-personal-income-plunges-in-final-q2-gdp-report-and-in-q1-too-n499765 .
