Daß Wonderland seine wirtschaftlichen Zahlen seit Jahrzehnten manipuliert, wissen wir inzwischen, aber ständig wird offenbarer, wie frech und unglaublich diese Lügen sind, und bei alledem die höchste Einkommensschere seit der großen Depression vor 1929....
ShadowStats / John Williams führt unverdrossen den taumelnden Hegemon vor. Statt ständig gelogenem Wachstum real z.B dies :
"Beispiellos in 100 Jahren Berichte der Produktionsaktivitäten markiert Dezember 2018 den Rekord von vollen 11 Jahren wirtschaftlichen Nicht Wachstums".
"– U.S. Economy and Markets Are Transitioning, and It Is Not Good News
– Excessive FOMC Rate Hikes and Tightening of the Last Year Have Pushed the Economy to the Brink of a New Recession, Exacerbated by the Shutdown
– Headline Back-to-Back First- and Second-Quarter 2019 GDP Contractions Likely Follow Still-Pending Reporting of Sharply Slowing Fourth-Quarter 2018 GDP; Consider Plunging Retail Sales, Production, Manufacturing and Freight Activity
– Unprecedented in 100 Years of Reported U.S. Manufacturing Activity, December 2018 Marked a Record Eleven Full Years of Economic Non-Expansion
– January 2019 Monetary Base Suffered Its Steepest Annual Decline Since Triggering the Second Down-Leg of the Great Depression
– Income Dispersion Worst Since Before the 1929 Stock Crash and Great Depression
– With a Tanking Economy, the Stock-Market Sell-Off Is Far from Finished; Political Discord in Washington Should Exacerbate and Intensify Market Instabilities
– Does This Concern the FOMC and Government Policy Makers? It Should!
– Driven by Energy Prices, 2018 Annual Inflation Measures Hit Multi-Year Highs, Not Driven by the FOMC Rate-Hike Canard of an Overheating Economy
– Time for Congress to Revisit the Concept of the Federal Reserve?
– U.S. Treasury Fiscal Operations Are Not Sustainable, Threatening Ultimate Financial-Market and U.S. Dollar Turmoil "
