Trump brings America $3 TRILLION in investments since taking office.

Hopefully that'll be backed up by good employment numbers and lower inflation which will halt the fall of consumer confidence.

As reported yesterday:

The Conference Board Consumer Confidence Index® fell by 7.2 points in March to 92.9 (1985=100). The Present Situation Index—based on consumers’ assessment of current business and labor market conditions—decreased 3.6 points to 134.5. The Expectations Index—based on consumers’ short-term outlook for income, business, and labor market conditions—dropped 9.6 points to 65.2, the lowest level in 12 years and well below the threshold of 80 that usually signals a recession ahead. The cutoff date for preliminary results was March 19, 2025.

You know, that whole "consumer confidence index" thing really makes no sense. They can't even talk about it without sounding retarded.

There was a time, and not too long ago, when Americans were encouraged to be thrifty, spend within their means, and save.

Now the money men get bent all out of shape if credit cards are not maxed-out at near 30% interest and the rubes are applying for more.

Sorry, but basically loan sharking is not the type of "confidence" America needs.

All I get from it is that market analysts look upon the index as a leading indicator for corporate profits and other economic indications such as the unemployment rate. For politicians it serves as indication of the public's mood and hopefully the $3 trillion in investments should be ample to turn the mood around in time for the midterms with 22 of the 35 contested seats being held by Republicans.
 
Trump is great. No doubt about that. I would say there is another big reasons corporations are coming to America. The countries these industries come from suck.

Germany has no electricity for industry. Germany went green and is now suffering electricity shortages and extremely high prices
