U.S. gross domestic product, a sum of all goods and services produced in the sprawling U.S. economy, expanded by 4.3% in the July-September period, the Commerce Department said in its initial reading of third-quarter growth. Economists polled by Dow Jones expect a gain of 3.2%.

Consumer spending expanded by 3.5% in the third quarter

Taking one data point with a grain of salt at the moment. Give me 3 or more and then we have a trend. If consumer spending is up; simply by virtue of everything being more expensive this victory isn’t as good as advertised. We’ll see; I sort of hate many of these reports as they look backward instead of forward.

Grocery prices remain insanely high. I find it much cheaper to eat out these days than it is to buy groceries and cook at home.

Just another false statement from you. Show where I ever said that. You never bring anything of value to this board. You are a puppet.

There’s an abundance of forward looking indicators including but not limited to the stock market, consumer sentiment, yield curves, new building permits, manufacturers new orders, etc. The report cited here measures GDP, and reflects the month of October and will likely be revised at some point. Not to dismiss its value; but, it is in the rear view as it was released late and only 10 days before we enter the month of January.

Now will the feds go back to raising rates to slow it down? Trump has been putting the pressure for them to drop the rates. I like the higher rates when I loan money to the banks in the form of a CD.

Let me know when you find the reports that tell the future. I too have a preference for those…

This is a dumb fricking statement. Are you buying prime ribeyes to eat at home and Taco Bell eating out?
