  1. Trade growth? We’re not gonna have adequate food in a few months.

  2.  @mraso30  USA and Canada might be fine for now but not the rest of the world. Those lost exports from Russia and Ukraine are going to be missed. And the droughts in the US Southwest are wiping out farms.

  3. I wonder what the per unit cost of these credits cost? That has to be built into the price of every ICE sold. Just one more unfair subsidy that benefits only the wealthy EV buyers.

  4.  @whynotstartusingyourbrain8726  Stupid? It’s 100% true. Tax credits and fees ICE manufacturers have to pay to EV manufacturers are all costs that ICE buyers have to bear to subsidize EVs. If EVs were so great, they shouldn’t need all this welfare. It’s disgusting.

  5.  @1flash3571  EV buyers have received billions in tax credits. And ICE car makers have to pay EV makers like Tesla billions in tax exchange credits. So the poor and middle class who can only afford an ICE are further subsidizing EVs. It’s a disgusting giveaway to the rich at the expense of the poor.

  6. One year of Biden and democrats and we have an humiliating surrender in Afghanistan, war in Europe, 40 year high inflation, porous border, record high crime, and record deficits and debt.

  7. 0% chance of a soft landing. This economy is addicted to cheap and easy loans. Jobs will be hemorrhaging in 3-6 months forcing the Fed to abandon using its tools to fight inflation.

  8.  @Erikpdx  Well it’s true that government’s can get away with Ponzi’s schemes longer than your average crook, even for decades. The level of debt madness since 2008 has been insane. But it always ends the same. My guess is we’re getting closer to the end. We’ll see…

  9. Why is the US wasting all this money to defend Ukraine’s borders from invaders when she can’t defend her own?

  10. At least stocks and bonds provide regular cash flow. Bitcoin earns nothing.

  11. Andrew Sorkin is such a d-bag.

  12. Home prices will be 50-70% lower in 2 years

  13. Big mistake. I predict after the niche buyers purchase their EVs, the market will mostly dry up and voters will demand ICE mandates be repealed.

  14. Real interest rates are still negative. And the Fed has barely shed 8% of its massive balance sheet of overvalued debt assets. Yet things are already breaking. God help us if tomorrow’s CPI is bad.

  15. That chick is not very smart. Textbook Econ 101 inflation is money printing without a commensurate increase in things to buy. And we’ve printed more money than ever in the last 2 years where productivity has fallen.

  16. If your business is based upon discretionary monthly fees, be wary. Inflation is forcing some tough choices.

  17. Doing both QT AND raising rates is even better. Higher rates will bring down the price of homes and other things due to demand destruction. The housing bubble needs to pop.

  18. That’s funny. Nobody I know will ever consider buying an EV no matter how cheap they get.

  19.  @Dank_Nuggetz  Exactly. Or there will be a better tech altogether like hydrogen or as yet to be revealed alternative.

  20. Somebody should have asked the black guy about BLM donations going to buy the founder a mansion instead of helping black communities.

  21.  @id10t98  Exactly! So what model is better for employees?

  22.  @Zack-vi7is  The only way union workers can make more money is if they are a monopoly or more productive. And sadly, unions tend to reduce worker productivity since they reward longevity over productivity. If union shops are forced to compete with non union shops, they will always get crushed.
    1
  23.  @Zack-vi7is  That’s only because most union workers are public sector monopolies.

  24.  @bgates1128  How do unions make companies/businesses more productive to justify higher wages and benefits?

  25. This financial Ponzi scheme is unwinding fast. Gold and bitcoin are gonna start going nuts. People have clued in to what a scam our financial system is.

  26.  clotshots9072  Not to mention the Fed acting as a straw man buyer of $9 trillion in mortgages and US debt.
    1
  27. Totally agree. Since 2008, we’ve added $20T in new debt (tripled it) and printed $9T.
    1
  28.  @jimbeam4111  Exactly! But the way they keep manipulating the data and changing the formula, who knows?

  29. I’ll never touch an EV until it’s just as convenient as an ICE for the same price. It’s not even close.

  30. Groceries are some of the most competitive things Americans buy with profits typically in the single digits.

  31. Once government decided to bail out private sector companies and pick winners and losers, capitalism in the US died. All this ESG nonsense is just today’s version of extortion no different than a business paying for mafia “protection.”

  32. Musk is right. Hell is coming. Excess Debt and money printing is going to cause a credit crisis of epic proportions.

  33. Oh barf. First it’s transitory, now it’s peaked. So sick of these corrupt idiots lies..

  34. I swear Jay Powell must have been a car salesman earlier in life selling “$1495 weather protection packages” with a straight face. I’ve never seen a bigger obvious liar.

  35. Um, yes it is. Especially smaller companies or zombie companies.

  36. The stock market is priced on future earnings estimates. If the stock market is weak, that just portends job losses and economic contraction are on the way.

  37. Strong? How strong would the economy be if the government ran a balanced budget and normalized rates, and turned off the money printer?

  38. 3200 is hardly worst case by fall. Too much instability. We’ll see how the dumping of the $9 trillion Fed balance sheet is going by then. Me thinks not too well.

  39.  @nicopono1  Huh? They started raising rates right after trump took office. They were 2.5% plus before the taper tantrum. Now, we’re only 0.75%. We need rates higher than inflation.
    1
  40. It’s only challenging because the Fed screwed up royally. They should have begun to normalize rates and stopped QE in the summer of 2020.

  41. Should we be worried? It seems every time the virus spikes in China, the rest of the world gets it a few months later.

  42. And here’s the thing, if we measured inflation the same way we did in the 70s, we would already be higher than any of those double digit rates.

  43.  @nT9HvWmDB5f8k2G  I trust Peter Schiff must more than a political hack article. He points out how the market basket has been manipulated over time to minimize the inflation figures. Why do you think the Fed flat out lied about for so long? Nobody wants to have to deal with inflation, because doing so will pop bubbles and cause a recession.

  44.  @zomgoose  That just means it will take a smaller drop in prices before they leave the keys on the counter and walk away.

  45.  @noonan395  When interest rates go to 7-8% they will be plentiful.
    1
  46.  @HardcoreGamer101508  No, but when interest rates rise to 7%, homes will be reduced in price from $500k to $200k.

  47. What’s sad is why we need a debt limit in the first place. You would think we could trust our elected officials to balance a damn budget.

  48. @Mark Miwords Is more like fascist democrats going after their former heroes like Musk for coming to his senses. Now saying Tesla doesn’t meet their ESG nazi agenda.

  49. @Mark Miwords My honda gets 45 mpg and I ride a bike to work. Gas prices can go to $500/gallon as far as I am concerned you lefty lunatic.

  50. @Mark Miwords Haha! Yep. Yeah, most of my cycling buddies are left wing nut jobs.
