Less government jobs and more private sector jobs. The economy is doing good.

.03% is not a panic number with the GDP. Stay tuned.

When the revision comes out that will be a positive number.

US spending under Trump has INCREASED compared to the same time frame as last year.

Trump’s slash and burn scorched earth attack on the Federal government backfires – there’s no limit to Trump’s incompetence and stupidity.

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

Trump is responsible.

Goodness, this didn't wear well. It wasn't that smart to begin with. When it was written, the DJIA had just had it's 9th winning session in a row, best in 21 years.

Leftwing predictions have all been wrong. I thought I warned you about making silly posts. I said if you wanted to be accepted as sane and logical by the core veteran group in this forum couldn’t make crazy posts. Young guys need to be able to tap into the experience and wisdom of those who have been around and have accomplished things. Keep yourself in that loop; thsts all I’m saying. Show that you have potential and are a serious person. Otherwise these guys won’t invest their time with you.

Jamie Dimon is not left wing.

He is a hardcore entrepreneur and finance capital guru of great expertise.

Mashmont is a hard right RCC who has no clue to worldwide economics.

The Dow is down 2000 points since Trump was inaugerated. What are you talking about. It has been a long time when the DOW was down the first 100 days of a President term. Do you have a clue about economics.

I own a lot of JPM stock, I respect Dimon, but he has shown to have
been wrong with his predictions. He could be right, but several economists
don't think stagnation is in the cards this year.
You should respect Mashmont more than you do. All he's done
is expose your immaturity, you could learn from his wisdom.

Oh, you should invest in JPM, going long, it's a winner

The stock market is around 42,000, not sure what you're talking about. Market goes up, the market
goes down, but in the long run it trends upward.

Yes the market goes down and the market goes up. Since Trump became President it has gone down 2000 points.

Are you saying what the market does under a President does not matter?

He has none. You. Sometimes you make sense.

First time the GDP declined in the 1st quarter since.....umm Biden and we got nothing for it except misery and threats and school closing and business bankrupt. At least you get some bang for your buck with Trump.

What does maintain Biden mean ?

What does maintain Biden mean ?

He is saying the Trump has maintained Biden's job growth. He has not bettered it.

We need about 170,000 jobs per month to maintain an adequate working force.

I am worried about the jobs report the first Friday in June.

That is unimportant unless you can show differently.

We are in for a rocky summer. Just how rocky remains to be seen.
