    China is shipping to everyone else. Export to US from China is diwn but the shipping to other countries from China is up. There is divergence self inflicted by the US. Go forward I dont think US down turns will have much impact on the world other than Europe.

    I agree with you on the major points on the economy. There are details that the politicians and the news media doesn’t tell us. Tump is right to have fair tariffs. The foreign countries has been taking advantage of USA for decades
    and we had no tariffs on them.
    The USA needs to have tariffs on foreign countries until they drop their tariffs on us.
    Number two item is corporations in the USA have laid off 90 percent us citizen high tech jobs and rehired them over seas. This is a well known fact. If you look of the years INTEl , ADI apple etc and etc has been hiring foreign engineers and designer for decades that can work remotely. Just look at the job opening it 90 percent outside the USA. So the USA company are most foreign workers including the manager and CEOs.
    Americans engineers and designers will have very difficult
    Task being hired in USA since companies just hire remote workers in other countries.
    Therefore there are more unemployed Americans and can not buy the all those new cars and products. Hopefully President Trump will bring balance the work force.

    I disagree with this gentleman's analysis. It's not just the volume of shipping coming into a country that determines economic prosperity. It's more telling with the volume of foreign investment pouring in under Trump's policies. Trillion upon trillions of dollars of foreign capital are pouring into the USA economy. Coupled with Trump's policy of less red tape. The USA economy is poised to explode. Trump's tariffs to date are also increasing the money that the federal government is collecting and inflation is under control.

    Copy and paste……The US inflation rate in July 2025 was 2.7%, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). This represents a 12-month change, meaning it compares prices from July 2025 to July 2024. The rate has generally been trending downward since 2022, when it peaked, and is now near the Federal Reserve's target rate.

    I'm new hear, and I'm wondering if your reporting ever gave great news during better times? Is there ever good news? I'm trying to understand your channel. Is everything, devastating every day. Crisis everywhere?
    Would giving defensive "advice" possible on your channel? What to do in a crisis information would be nice. Armageddon around the corner? Here's steps to take, for instance.

    Blackrock and other investment institutions have wrecked the real-estate market. Inflated that market and now are dumping assets, doing more damage
