Job, same. Go make money.
2% is essentially zero inflation. Lowering prices is a recession, so you increase wages to counter inflation which is what Trump is doing.
Third quarter of 2025 4.3% annualized growth rate, I’d say 2026 will be a blowout given the BBB.
If this all comes to fruition, media as always will be contrarian as Republicans are in power. The dependent / dimwitted voters will lap it up and kill Republicans in the Nov. vote.

The party out of power usually picks up plenty of seats in a midterm election, no big deal. It’s an American tradition to vote that way. But it’s gotten hard for them to cheat, which will help.
agree. if q3 is 4.3 when things have just barely started to ramp—what comes in q2 -q4 next year will be numbers not seen since the reagan years or even before. I’m betting 6% growth.

I believe it will be over 4% growth
The Elwction will be held on Purple turf, not Blue.
Yet this isn’t a normal mid-term
“Lowering prices is a recession,”

What I read on ING the other day didn’t seem as optimistic as BOA’s take.
