How in heck were retail sales in July better than expected? I thought the American consumer was tapped out? R2K back over 2100 It would seem someone would have to be lying, where is the flood of $$ coming down when everything is so expensive?

I do know that an awful lot of folks in urban areas are making 6 figures plus (plus a bunch). Seems many folks just keep spending, much like our government

Some guy backed into my daughter’s 2021 F150 last night. Broke the taillight bent the fender a little and scuffed the bumper. Nice old guy she said, got his name and number, said he would pay to fix it. $2300. He is going to get a shock in about a 1/2 hour when I go to pick up a check. lol

S&P back over 5600.
I wonder if Fed rate cuts are already priced in to the market?

818K fewer jobs than had been previously reported. How can such a large revision be required?

It gets worse the deeper you look. Outside of government and sickness, the number of full time jobs for American citizens is immensely worse.
