  1. Actually we’re in a Depression

  2. Correction, not a recession, we are in a stagflation. Cut spending only core to weather Brandonflation.

  3. Great video. you've remind me of what someone once said❤️ "The mind is the man, the poor is in it and the rich is it too". This sentence is the secret of most successful investors. I once attended similar and ever since then i been waxing strong financially, and i most tell you the truth..

  4. The Problem is:

    1. too many smart people have doubts; while,

    2. too many stupid people have confidence.

  5. Everyone get out and vote! We need Pelosi gone, only way is the Red takes the Senate and House, we need honesty, law and order brought back. We need to prosecute Hillary and Biden, only way is if we change the seats! We need accountability!

  6. Is ANYONE surprised to learn that GOP Rep. Elise Stefanik's husband works for a leading gun industry trade group? 🤨

  7. You know who has risked dying because of their job for the last two years? Yeah, healthcare workers.

  8. Biden is the blame for destroying our country impeach Biden and democrats

  9. There will be no recession, just a straight path into depression. Bubbles in all assets, diminishing middle class, crime, homelessness, and hyperinflation. Meanwhile, income has nowhere near caught up and Americans have no savings. The US produces nothing and consumes everything. This is the ultimate recipe for a depression. FED won’t be able to put a blanket over this one like they did in 2008.

  10. I have spent most of my retirement check on food this month and it has been this way for 3 months now so the recession has been here at least in Panama city Florida

  11. Hope ropes the Dopes every time. Dissimulation used politically/socially.
    Trillions pumped into the economy is owed by taxpayers, called inflation, impoverishes.
    Millions of uneducated, unskilled, dangerous, illegal, voters crossed our border.
    Americans are now financial slaves: Owned by democrats across the Country.
    Media is democrats' propaganda/disinformation machine; liars/distractors.
    Schools do not educate, they confuse our youth, as adults are stupefied.

  12. It’s not quit clear that we are in a recession. Stocks say we are, but consumer spending doesn’t yet. Everyone is still spending like it’s 1999. That’s when the tech crash happened so we’ll see.

  13. Saving huge sums of money helps no one. If the bottom drops out and the stocks falter, always ha a certain amount of government bonds. Five, year, if the economy is not too bad twenty- and twenty-five-year bonds. Do not put all your eggs in one basket. If you have a 401K, you need to ask about early withdrawal? It does no good to be out on the street with a 401K you cannot touch.

  14. Depression is coming??? Hell, this administration has depressed me for the last 2 years😠😠😠

  15. Sorry. It took 5 minutes for this "expert" to say we are already in a recession. Why spent 8 minutes FOX? Come on man. Just say it and then sign off.

  16. The Biden/Obama administration say the rate of inflation is slowing? Not surprising. They control the numbers and they cook the books. Inflation isn't 8 percent…it's over 30 percent. Is a recession coming? Do bears poop in the woods?

  17. Davos! Have any of you read their plan. It certainly isn't going to make the consumer financially stable. You will own nothing and be happy. Looks like their minnions in government, business and media are aiding and abetting them. Can't wait for November.

  18. Your Recession started in 2021. LGB

  19. ALSO CORE PCE FOR APRIL WAS + 4.9% MEANS ALREADY PEOPLE HAS STARTED REDUCING ITS SPENDING DUE TO SUPER HIGH ENERGY + FOOD COSTS + 5% RANGE OF 30YR MORTAGAGE RATE!!!!!!!!!:)

  20. LET ME TELL YOU THE TRUTH THAT NOW IN US EOCNOMY THE INFLATION MEASUREMENT PARADIGM HAS CHANGED FROM THE CORE PCE TO CPI!!!!!!! IN CASE OF THE CORE PCE, IT WAS USEFUL DATA TO MEASURE THE INFLATION DURING THE LOW ENERGY + LOW FOOD COSTS DAYS MEANS THE TIME OF CPI WAS MOVING UP AND DOWN BETWEEN THE RANGE OF 2%-4% HOWEVER NOW WE ARE HAVING MORE AND MORE + 7% + 8% AND IT WILL BE INTO +9% CPI IN JUNE SO IT IS ALMOST A NONSENSE TO MEASURE THE INFLATION WITH THE CORE PCE DATA UNDER 3DIGIT NUMBERS OF OIL PRICE + RECORD HIT GRAIN PRICES!!!!!!!!:)

  21. AGAIN AND AGAIN US FED IT IS TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO LATE TO HIT THE BREAK!!!!!!!!!!:)

  22. DO THE MATH THAT ——– > RIGHT NOW US 10YR YIELD IS AT 2.743%. – (+) 8.3% INFLATION = (-)5.5570%!!!!!!!! AND NOW US 30YR MORTGAGE RATE IS AT +5.29%!!!!!!!!!!! ——- > Today's national 30-year mortgage rate trends
    For today, Saturday, May 28, 2022, the current average 30-year fixed-mortgage rate is 5.29%. < ——– YOU DON'T GET IT? WHAT IS GOING ON IN US ECONOMY?!!!!!!!!! THAT MEANS ALREADY THE WEALTH EFFECT' IN WHICH THE FED DEPENDS ON TO MAINTAIN CONSUMPTION, HAS GONE TOTALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:) IN OTHER WORDS WE ARE IN THE STAGFLATION BASED ON PEAK THE WAGE INFLATION VS CONTINUOUSLY GOING ON AND ON HIGH INFLATION FROM + 8% + 9% +10% MEANS WE ARE NOT ABLE TO AVOID RECESSION BY THE END OF SEP 2022!!!!!!!:)

  23. How can anything good come from this hateful, lethargic, comatose, braindead administration of swindlers?

  24. Economic growth doesn't mean anything if it leave people out. Jobs will pay your bills, business will make you rich but Investment make and keeps you healthy

  25. I believe < that the inflation is already priced in crypto market since the end of last year. These manipulative rats are always 2 steps ahead of everybody because they are market makers. I hope I’m wrong and they won’t keep dumping it on retail investors as always. Those who hold the longest will profit the most, I trade and hold profits keep up the great work! and also Derek Ross has been doing a great job reviewing all chart, trade and techniques on BTC which has enhance the growth of my portfolio to 11 BTC lately. You can reach Derek on ͲeIєɠɾαm👉DerekRoss

  26. I think the pandemic has taught people the importance of multiple streams of income unfortunately having a job doesn’t mean security. Great video. Thanks for sharing

  27. Yeah the left selling out America for a long time then steal an Election and us corrupt legal system fbi and now we watch as they finish us USA off

  28. The utter lunacy of condemning teachers for teaching our children while expecting them to act as armed defenders in situations where police can’t. It’s Orwellian. It’s ridiculous. & it’s a position advanced by people who are up to their necks in NRA $.

  29. BREAKING: Federal Appeals Court rules against Madison Cawthorn, holds that 14th Amendment can be used to disqualify insurrectionists from office.

    Bad news for Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lauren Boebert, Paul Gosar, Mo Brooks — and Donald Trump.

  30. Flat rate taxation revolution time is for NOW.

  31. The anger feels almost constant now.

    This country is in a state of collapse because 75% of us are being ruled by a 25% with no scruples or shame whatsoever.

    This cannot go on much longer. I don’t—quite honestly—know what that means. I just know that it cannot go on much longer.

  32. Illumination can frighten him who does not seek enlightenment. Wisdom is a gift conspired through love and through power. Any situation that you find yourself in, is an outward reflection of your inner state of beingness.

  33. Neil Cavuto may well be the down

  34. Corrupt rigged elections and selections and corrupt elitist control has destroyed American democracy. Now it is only corrupt demagoguery. DC is a corrupt criminal deepstate operation.

  35. Anyone who thinks 15 bucks an hour for working at a fast food place is a good thing , in my opinion is crazy ! Where I live they can't even get an order right and it takes 2-3 times as long as it did before because they always have their phone in one hand stuck up in front of their face

  36. This is the start of the PERMANENT DOWN FALL OF USA. We will be another Country eventually maybe if we're lucky we can be a part of the UK again!!🤞🤞 free dental, free housing!!. Great mental Healthcare!!, Free Medical!!.

  37. Everything Trump would say would happen under Biden has come true

  38. I agree with the Trump economist! Neil, my family still didn’t forgive you about your Trump views! You were wrong, you got who you wanted (Biden) so take ownership of what this clown does (Biden). You voted for him!

  39. Try depression, the news is so convoluted.

  40. Forget saving the Planet… The Planet is NOT going anywhere!!…. this is about saving humans!… not just any humans…. but the "best" humans possible ….

  41. Recession ? We are headed for a depression . It is the only way they can stop the runaway inflation at this point.

  42. Why is the NRA banning guns at their event this Friday if more guns make us safer?

  43. WHAT DO YOU THINK?
    in war, the enemy creates economic hardship, cuts supply chains, etc,,, all the things our government seems to be doing to us right now. the U.S. is FULLY capable of being self sufficient and has a rich bounty

  44. I disagree, Joe Biden tells me from his studio that everything is going swimmingly. But I'm a mindless Democrat zombie 🧟‍♂️

  45. I can tell you exactly what's going to happen and I'm not even an economist… You're going to see places like Dollar tree Dollar general grow exponentially… You're going to see those stores finally have the things that the Walmarts and the targets do that's exactly what you're going to see

  46. We’re definitely in a recession. Only real estate agents and rich people will disagree.

  47. Obvious man tells you that the U.S. is in a recession.
