You guys are too old on this site

You need to recruit younger talent

AARP crowd of ideological thinkers

Fake created conservatives and liberals

just like demographics you need replacement people ....

Drill, baby, Drill!

Another day, another record. ZZZZzzzzzzzzz.

I like Trump better already.

This is the kind of image management he needed from the beginning. What liberal can argue with this.

Toss the above in with this: Some 6 million Americans are delinquent with auto loans and it’s going to get worse. The number of subprime auto loans sinking into delinquency hit their highest level since 2010 in the third quarter, with roughly 6 million individuals at least 90 days late on their payments.

There are 200 million cars on the road, with most of them paid off. 6 million defaults does not seem like a serious problem.
Bring out the repo man.

6 million defaults does not seem like a serious problem - the number is rising and while that may not be too much of a problem for the moment, the inventory numbers and difference in outlook and responses between Ford and GM is unsettling to say the least, just read another piece where Chrysler is delaying some releases. Don't see this situation turning around on a dime.

American cars suck. Except for Tesla.
Toyota does not seem to be having any problem.

World's "Most Bearish Hedge Fund" Suffers Worst Month In History, Refuses To Capitulate

ROFL. ha ha ha what a shocker.
"A fool and his money is soon parted"

Where were the switches made? Communist China?
Trump will make sure all GM parts are made in america.
Everything will be made in the u.s. except a few Carrier products.
Billions of jobs,WOO!HOO!

Corporations are People, therefore trump can pardon GM.
Let the stock price collapse,then I will buy all of it.
I'm a genius!

Doesn't anyone care about the duck?

I do. The duck on the bottom is a male.

Logan Mohtashami says

Commercial and industrial loans at all banks decline by $1.6 billion in a week to $2.098 trillion http://bit.ly/2hvgSfe

You do realize that these banks are lending to Europe and big business here don't you? Euro banks have no loans to make.

Logan Mohtashami says

Total consumer credit outstanding rose in October to $3.73 trillion http://bit.ly/2har8KS

Much of this is a function of auto loans. Many people are behind on those payments.

Logan Mohtashami says

Gary Anderson says

And we know by the shadow stats that full employment is not being reached

Shadow stats is a fraud it implies that 47 Million jobs were lost in 2 years and no jobs were created. It's one of the single worst things I have ever seen in my life

I don't think Shadow Stats is necessarily a fraud. I just think many who have given up are in rural America, that voted for Trump, and they have no hope of getting to where the jobs are.

Logan Mohtashami says

Gary Anderson says

The Fed rope a doped to keep it above negative GDP

Each high peak is lower, Logan. You are a chartist and you should know this.

Gary Anderson says

Fraud is a kind term that would imply they know they're wrong... I was being kind

Gary Anderson says

Each high peak is lower, Logan. You are a chartist and you should know this.

Not for a rolling 4 quarter cycle, that thesis could have been used for the one off number GDP print we have had that deviate from the three

Recessionary data isn't really that hard to look for if you know where to look

Gary Anderson says

Many people are behind on those payments.

95% + make their payments and most pay off their loans....

95% plus, in fact the first 3 year waive of loans are all paid off

Did you see the WaPo failure to retract the "Prop or Not" article?

They thought an "Editor's Note" claiming they gave no veracity of the information provided by Prop Or Not was enough. The entire piece praises Prop Or Not despite not identifying a single individual in the organization. It appears to be a Neocon-MIC Front Group.

They should actually pull the piece. They will, once they get sued.

Pretty sure no one has ever gotten emails out of the site, except individuals who have "befriended" another user, which results in email sharing for just those two users.

You must not be too happy about the YOY change in GDP and labor force are you? That seems to contradict some other indicators.

And btw, I am not interested in competing with you. I just think that the economy is weaker than many think. I just want to get to the bottom of it. I want to know where we stand. Certainly, there are some positives, but there are also some obvious negatives.

Time Magazine's man of the year!

And two Presidential Medals of Freedom.

Who would have thought that Trump would be the first IHL president.

Is this the WaPo article you are talking about:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/obama-orders-review-of-russian-hacking-during-presidential-campaign/2016/12/09/31d6b300-be2a-11e6-94ac-3d324840106c_story.html?utm_term=.308f601c90ba

If so, they say:

“It is the assessment of the intelligence community that Russia’s goal here was to favor one candidate over the other, to help Trump get elected,” said a senior U.S. official briefed on an intelligence presentation made to U.S. senators. “That’s the consensus view.”
.....
The CIA shared its latest assessment with key senators in a closed-door briefing on Capitol Hill last week, in which agency officials cited a growing body of intelligence from multiple sources. Agency briefers told the senators it was now “quite clear” that electing Trump was Russia’s goal, according to the officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss intelligence matters.

The CIA presentation to senators about Russia’s intentions fell short of a formal U.S. assessment produced by all 17 intelligence agencies. A senior U.S. official said there were minor disagreements among intelligence officials about the agency’s assessment, in part because some questions remain unanswered.

Seems consistent with this new reporting. It's all going to be a moot point anyway. Trump rejects the intelligence community.

This is all a moot point because Russia didn't hack voter machines, but they exposed information about how corrupt the DNC is. If that affected the election, so be it. Not Trump's problem.

How many days later and CIC still thinks this story is about the Washington Post ?

We don't need no steenkin' facts!

Can someone link to the FBI,CIA documents?
OH! That's right ,no MSM or individual without clearance even knows the location of these supposed-ed documents.
The Russians send all their secret documents to all the u.s. security agencies.The alphabet soup in DC .couldn't be wrong about this. We've never heard a fib before from GREAT american institutions.
I comment about things I know nothing about.
I'm a fast patnet learner.

This is all part of hardcore liberals coming around to accepting election outcome. They cant just accept the outcome, it's too hard for them. They need some excuse to mentally make peace with it, as silly as blaming Putin. Otherwise they can't comprehend the world that doesn't agree with their authoritarian one sided point of view.

Please understand, guys like Marcus need this stuff, it's the only way their brain can view the outcome of election. Hillary losing, they can't comprehend this, just blows their minds!

TRUMP PLOTTING TO FUCK A DUCK!

While his daughter is trying to duck a fuck.

it's not possible to know the real geo-location of the hacker(s) of this caliber.

don't need to read any news to know that.

she said in the second debate many agencies confirmed. LOL. no one would be able to confirm shit. what a lying crooked POS.

NO I get spam from Breitbart and Drude Report after I gave them my email so I could give them my input on Polls about Trump.
Pretty chickenshit that Bush, Rubio and Cruz all got holt of my email and sent me adverts to my disliking.

I've been pwn Patrick for over 11 years now, never have I gotten email that I could say came from here.

It was the number one reason nobody got a damn dime from me. NOt one red cent not a penny.
Trump should have had Mumfort kick someobdy in the balls for plucking his chickens.
My black friend even though he's a felon and can't vote was stupid enough to give Klingon Clinton $16 on 5 different occassions. Stupid ass!

HEY YOU says

No one ask the tough questions.

Patrick,did you vote for trump?

I voted for Bernie.

Cool move because it didn't matter in California anyway.

Whatever hacking has taken place, the FBI says the CIA has not proved that voting machines were hacked.

I am not a Trump fan, but this possible fake news by the Washington Post is disturbing.

Is axle grease better than transmission fluid for duck stuffing?

Gary Anderson says

GDP and labor force are you?

Ages 21-26 are the biggest in America and prime age labor force is almost back to 2007.. this massive work force is kicking into the door and in a few years it will be a big positive for the U.S.

Older America leaving matters a lot if they don't have a work force consumption and working to take it's place

Hence why I am not worried about America demographics or robots taking all the jobs
