LSE are improving. They used to remove the word "snowflake"

It's fashionable - and on the up.

Probably put the mockers on it now.

Nothing earth shattering there. The CPI is a joke on every individual. Put together a cost of living index, now that wouldn't be a joke.

Indeed, which of course is good for us - leverage....nice!

Economic sentiment for the next 6 months took a battering.

Not looking good in muttiland

TFE, yeah I noticed

Good2 - interesting thought.

Reality is too much debt, not enough growth. The one's outstripping the other, then your reach debt saturation point. Exponential growth to feed and pay the debt is the aim, but it isn't happening. Doom & Gloom nothing to do with it.

The CBs will change course in the near future. They'll will channel QE down the fiscal route rather than monetary channel, direct into main street - and we all know the consequences of that.

That's what's on the horizon

Good first post BTC - indeedy

A bigger sniff if recession or worse in the air. I guess some of you didn't read the fool article, accurate imo.

Other indices are up. Bad news is good news, meaning more cheap money and lower rates - but not good for domestic banks.

Monetary addiction

Livestock, retail sales yoyo, as do many economic data sets.

Stocks going up is not an indicator of a stabilizing economy - it's where money is being channeled. GDP over the quarter is down, and economies are measured by GDP rightly/wrongly. You also need more than one print to make economic assumptions on health.

Livestock, strange interpretation of the Chinese economy stabilizing. Down from 6.4 to 6.2.

More stimulus from the world's biggest money printers should fix it - the QE decease

"I started off with Zero.
Everyone would have had at least the same opportunities as me to build income and assets. Some people have no money due to their own incompetent ways in financial matters"

Bravo! maybe everyone isn't as smart as you - or had the opportunity. People are different in many ways, so it's silly to compare and yardstick others to yourself.

And remember, you can finish with zero

Maybe strange to you. To the majority who don't have money to invest - it isn't.

Crowcast, 18,000 bankers were given the finger at DB this week and I'd guess the majority would say good riddance. I'm not talking about general high street banks or said get rid of them - you did.

As for how economies work, I'll tell you how they don't work ZIRO NIRP and QE. Robbing savers who's money actually grows economies through investing in business. Money neither earned or saved (QE) will never create real growth.

All it's done is make the rich richer, the poor poorer. If that's how you think an economy works, you need treatment.

But fear not, going forward the robbing of your wealth will be taken to new heights. $13 trillion with negative yield including junk is just the starters.

And nothing to do with bankers...lol...of course not!

Most things fly over your bonce - it's you don't know. Like banks have been robbing you blind since your birth.

So the less of them the better. You can toddle off and do some googling if u wish.

Keep you quiet for awhile

Flew over your head again Crowcast.

What's a bjorse btw?

Politicians & Bankers

The world would be a much better place without them. Last ten years is proof of that - there is more - ten is enough.

Your last sentence saved the post from the shedder - maybe?

Meanwhile, NYC putting AOC new green deal through a test via a blackout. The advice is always check your bank account when leccy restored.

It's a head to head with Caracus

Anyone read the recent release that man-made climate change is aload of bollocs. Certainly put the cat amongst the pigeons.

These professors need to avoid nail guns...lol

That's why I'm always happy then.

ERV, in the process of finalizing a contract with the publishers. I suspect the biggest customer will be HMG
