National Debt: There Is Going To Be A Crisis Along The Way

Barack Obama might have already doubled the national debt since he was sworn in. We doubled the debt, doubled it! We added as much debt under Obama as we did from George Washington to George W. Bush. And of course if this continues, the next president is going to double the 19 trillion to what? 40 trillion, that is impossible right? So there has to be crisis somewhere along the way. There is no way we can continue on this tranjectory.

U.S. Economy: A Cyclical Recession Is Already Under Way

None of this is going to keep the U.S. Economy out of recession. The fact that the Japanese lowered their interest rates, the fact that the Europeans lowered their interest rates, that is not going to change anything on Main Street USA. And the fact of the matter is corporate profits are under pressure, retail sales are under pressure, and the layoffs are going to come. It is not going to matter what the global monetary policy is, this cyclical U.S. recession is already under way.

A Bear Market in Stocks, Plus An Economic Recession

I think not only we are in a bear market in stocks, I think we are in a recession economically. I think the recession we are in now is going to be longer and deeper than the great recession of 2008-2009. 

All bear market begin as corrections but they do not officially call it a bear market until its down 20 percent. The Russell 2000 Index is down 25 percent, the Transports Index is down 30 percent, many individual sectors and stocks are down a lot more than 20 percent!
