Ball is above the heads of players and looks to be heading into the stands, quite possibly out the ballpark as it travels

One of the things I question are the jobs numbers. People say they are "soft" but millions of illegals are leaving the workforce (many had ss# so they were captured in the data) and we still have job growth.
I would think you are moving out 2 million people a year and have ANY positive job growth, that would mean 2 million plus Americans found jobs. Fantastic news.
Same with retail sales consumer data, the numbers are popping and you are doing it with 2million less consumers. Pretty impressive.
That SOB is gonna pull this off, who would have thought putting a business man in charge of the largest business in the world would work

Atlanta fed forecasting 5.4% GDP growth for 4th quarter.
Lutnik said it could have been 1.5% higher if not for the govt shutdown.
Whats 2026 look like.......

Yes, U.S. capital investment is projected to reach new heights in 2026, primarily driven by massive spending on Artificial Intelligence (AI) infrastructure, reshoring of supply chains, and a robust mergers and acquisitions (M&A) market. This growth is supported by resilient U.S. economic fundamentals, corporate tax cuts, and a general shift of global capital toward U.S. markets.

A lot of these part timers also try and get multiple jobs. Hell, my old neighbor is a teacher and did a catering job on the weekends.
Some of the service industry jobs opening up from illegals leaving are possibly being filled by these people and not necessarily by people who weren't working at all.
To be unemployed you have to actually be looking.
