Why GDP Is In Trouble

Bear Hat
*Chart is from Dshort.com, data is from Consumer Metrics 
  • Consumer Metrics has been a great leading indicator for GDP
  • With the consumer pulling back hard (Which is 2/3 of GDP) GDP will continue to fall unless the consumer comes back, FAST!  
  •   Watch the Q2 GDP numbers on Aug 27th 
    • Will be the Second Estimate for Q2
    • Will be revised down (I am looking for 1.3 growth for Q2)
    • Q3 GDP looking for under 1 percent growth
    • Q4 GDP could be in the red!
