Yep. The art of the deal.
There's a right way and wrong way to stimulate the economy and that recent proposal was not the right way. The first thing to do is up open it up, even if we need to wear masks, then see where we're at with GDP numbers.
Struggling? So tired of hearing that one too. I got a postcard in the mail last week from Amazon looking for delivery and warehouse workers. Here you have the most successful company in the history of Earth and they are understaffed and looking for bodies.
And not for nothing, I've been hearing about "how bad the economy is" since around 2008. It hasn't let up and doesn't matter who's in charge.
AMZN, GOOGL, FB, AAPL: They'll be in the crosshairs in the next four years no matter who gets elected in November.
Fed Chairman Jerome Powell, a Trump appointee and one of the nation’s top economic officials, said just hours before the president’s tweets that the U.S. economic outlook could deteriorate again if Congress couldn’t reach a deal to release more relief.
Failing to reach a deal could “lead to a weak recovery, creating unnecessary hardship for households and businesses” and thwart a rebound that thus far has progressed more quickly than expected.
“By contrast, the risks of overdoing it seem, for now, to be smaller,” Powell added in remarks to the National Association for Business Economics. “Even if policy actions ultimately prove to be greater than needed, they will not go to waste. The recovery will be stronger and move faster if monetary policy and fiscal policy continue to work side by side to provide support to the economy until it is clearly out of the woods.”
