Truth Seeker says:

The only way he can drain the swamp is to end the federal reserve which has bankrupt this country with fraudulent debt schemes that are illegal. We need to give Congress the power to print interest free real and legal money not legal tender

Raising rates is killing the stock market and it will kill the economy if mortgages and car loans go much higher. 30 year mortgages have risen from 3.2% up to almost 5% in just 2 years; to the point where a borrower of $200,000 today is paying $155/month more today than 2 years ago. Borrowing $400,000 doubles that number. It's no surprise that more and more potential real estate borrowers are losing interest. And more and more new homeowners will be under water when prices begin to drop. Many recessions are caused directly by the Fed. The guest who says stay invested is saying investors panic out at the wrong time, but not everyone has to be all or nothing. Investors can pull some of their money out and put it in safer places that pay 2 to 5% and that's what's happening already

If we had a productive economy we wouldn't be running these huge trade deficits and also you'd see less hours worked & high purchasing power.

alex 45 says:

Even though the Fed is still talking about removing the monetary props, there's not much left that they can remove without the whole thing coming toppling down. The evidence is already there that the economy is weak. And Trump wants to pretend the economy is strong .

alex 45 says:

People confuse a good economy with a massive credit bubble from all of the QE and low interest rates. We have more debt than we had in 2008 and still a GDP composed of 75% debt-financed consumption.

Not surprised. Not one ounce of that gold belongs to the u.s anyway. If we were called upon to pay off our national debt today we wouldn't have enough of anything to do so.

Unkel Faka says:

Yes. Housing is slowing down. American dept is high. The stock market dropped last month and was scary like 2008. Central banks need to go. The Fed is a private bank. Trump is right. Do some research Americans. Your family weath depends on it. Prepare for a big slow down in the years to come.

CHARLES IVORY SR. says:

You can't have it both ways 0 interest and a good economy it's a fake economy built on cheap debt

C17H25N FTW says:

Yeah, the economy is going so well, that's why Nationwide just jacked-up my auto insurance for no justified reason. Their answer: "cost of living increase across the board".

Autumn Roberts says:

Good! Let's get on gold standard
